The tattoo almost looks like it was supposed to be an ambigram (readable upside down and right side up) based on a design like this one Ambigram - Virgo | Flickr - Photo Sharing!. The flourish at the end of the O looks like it could make a V and a dotted I upside-down. It doesn't look quite...

Found the gentleman in the yearbook photo... He is alive. I should also mention how incredible some of the new reconstructions have been lately. I'd never guess this was a reconstruction.

Carl, you're absolutely right with the resemblance. (And I appreciate your yearbook sleuthing-- it helped me to find the very first photos of our formerly MP.) Going with Cubby's line of thought, if there are two typos in the last name, there are a lot more hits for living people with that name.

It's awesome to see all the Pinocchio's love... I miss their barbecue chicken calzones! Maura was probably ordering food for delivery because it's one of the few ways to use a stolen credit card without a physical card. Even online orders check to match the name and shipping/billing address on...

Thank you for the update Donjeta. I was wondering about this. Interesting that NamUs gives it low identification potential when it's fresh enough to recover DNA. =(

Thank you for being so open about her story. I never knew bipolar disorder could have the added curses of hallucinations and sleep deprivation. It makes me more amazed by the daily difficulties sufferers have to face.

There's just something about Pollyanne Jean Carter's eyes that made me think of this UID... Pollyanne would have been 22 in 1991, and I don't think she could have grown 6 inches after age 16, though. Pollyanne Jean Carter

Note: that particular poster was known to be alive after Lyle was found.

I keep thinking it's worth revisiting the alt.suicide.holiday connection. It came up earlier as a potential source of instructions for Lyle's hanging method (Steven's suspension hanging). Alt.suicide.holiday was a newsgroup, an early form of internet message boards grouped by topic. I never...

Thank you, Kimster. I just had really high hopes when the location and time period had so much news archived freely online, and it turned up nothing new. I messaged the owner of the bridge website, just in case he was aware of anything fitting this incident, and he was kind enough to...

I've been digging through area papers on Google News for the last hour and a half-- I am thinking it's really strange that I haven't been able to find ANY mentions of our UID. Maybe he was never identified because this wasn't publicized in the local media? There are dozens of articles about...

Oh. There is a whole website dedicated to suicides on this bridge. I am not sure I wanted to find that. But the scanned articles from this time period are helpful.

This young man is so recognizable that I have to wonder if he was a known death where the body was never found. Perhaps he was a drowning victim or involved in a boating accident. I searched to see if FL had any public records on these types of incidents and was surprised to find the bridge...

Donjeta... That is a really interesting theory! Mickey Brougham disappeared from one NASCAR race in June, and there would have been a Pocono race in August of that year. Here's the 2010 Nascar schedule.

Friends and family of Ken, I am so sorry for your loss. I wish we could have helped you bring him home sooner.

This story really captured my imagination, but Ausgirl's Ohio post brought me back to common-sense-land. I can see why reporters were fascinated by cult theories and interpretations of exotic cultures! According to the statistics at suicide.org, about half of one percent of suicides are by...

I keep thinking the only reason to write something on your foot before committing suicide is to help anyone looking for you confirm your identity... like writing something on the sole of your foot for the coroner to find when he/she attaches a toe tag. And maybe, in his distraught state, he was...

Mr. Doe was found at a construction site near I-75 and Northside Parkway. There is a Spring Valley Park and Spring Valley Road less than a mile from there.

I couldn't tease any more detail out of the "HR Bow Dyeing and Finishing" image in photoshop, but I'm thinking it could also be: 'Bow Spring' or 'Bow String' [cursive capital S] No google hits on businesses relating to hunting or... I guess bow springs would mostly be used on boats...

I can't believe there were so many. And 1995 must have been a crazy year! I'm just thinking the article *has* to be about DoeNetwork Websleuths It doesn't even look like the same reconstruction, does it?
