Oh I wasn’t saying he would’ve swam the entire way, he’d have had to jump off of a boat/ship and swim in - I’m just not sure how likely that is. We do have lots of ships that have to sit and wait their turn to come into the Port of Galveston, and stuff comes into the port from all over the world...

while I feel like the slides worn on his arms are indicative of him swimming/being in the water - I still can’t wrap my head around the idea that he was trying to enter the US via the Gulf of Mexico, I think it’s probably the least likely scenario. Just my opinion.

I agree, this is troubling.

After coming across Mark’s photo it immediately reminded me of an unidentified transient here in Galveston, TX. ML 2006-057. Of course it’s a long shot, I’m comparing a clay reconstruction of a mummified decedent to a very dated photograph of a missing person. Oddly enough he falls into the...

Still no word on Kahala Beach John Doe. Seven months after Kahala Beach John Doe was found, the body of a black female was found on our bayside here in Galveston - I can’t find any information on whether or not she has been identified (she’s not listed in namus) but this just is super odd to me...

BUMP. 32 years, we haven’t forgotten.

Doesn’t look like they have determined cause of death. He may have been in the water for a couple of days considering the condition of his remains. No reports of missing swimmers - the island was incredibly crowded Mother’s Day weekend, with water temperatures hanging around 75 degrees. The...

GALVESTON The Galveston County Medical Examiner's office still was working Tuesday to identify and determine what killed a young, black man found dead on the sand near Kahala Drive. The man's body was found about 12:40 p.m. Sunday, according to the Galveston Police Department. "There were no...

It’s noted that Vali had red hair and green eyes, while the unidentified woman was noted to have brown hair and brown eyes.

It also doesn’t mean Ali was deeply disturbed by the divorce either. So she was mad at her dad and wasn’t speaking to him? this is typical teenage girl behavior WITHOUT the talk of divorce. My guess is if she were mad at her dad about anything it would’ve been because he met up with said older...

You are correct, she would’ve put up a struggle; doesn’t mean she couldn’t be overpowered. I had plenty of friends that had parents that divorced - and none ever seemed to be affected the way you believe Ali was. Did it break her heart? Probably. Did it drive her to runaway and never look...

Difficult for who to forcibly snatch Ali? I don’t think it would take much for a grown man to pick up a girl her size - at 5’2” 145lbs. Lets say she does put up a fight, she is a 16 year old girl that hasn’t been trained to fight or fight back against someone that is much bigger than her...and...

I’m not discrediting the “old friend” but that’s all hearsay at this point. It was said by the PI working the case that Ali was texting with someone from the Las Vegas area but they never implied that they even thought she had runaway because she left behind everything that would be important to...

I am a mother myself and I don’t view Joann as being controlling. I see that she loved her daughter and wanted to know where she was in order to keep her safe? If she were that “controlling” why did she give Ali permission to do what she wanted? When you become a parent your #1 job is to keep...

I agree, it is sad to see her case losing interest here. But I understand how it happens, there simply isn’t anymore information to go on, nothing “new” that makes people want to continue to dig. This is a huge thread and there is lots of good information and theories out there. Your theory is...

We need to get that rule-out list transferred over to this thread - I was trying to find it real quick but haven’t had any luck yet! Anybody know what page it’s on? lol As for Rachel - I’m not sure if she was officially ruled-out or not. I sent so many possible matches to Dr. D and a lot of...

But not putting a whole lot of stock into a reconstruction resembling an age progression. Eerily similar though.

I thought so too.

Ugh. This is frustrating. Having the information was useful to me because it was an easy way to rule someone out and I wouldn’t have to bother Dr. D Is she still around, working the case? Houstonmom? I haven’t emailed her in forever but came across yet another possible match and I’m not sure...
