Star of David has been a symbol of Folk for as long as I recall. I think they had a leader named King David or something like that?

I've heard of Blood. Thanks.Folk would be synonymous with Blood. They are a very large gang that has been around for quite sometime.
What is lake Michigan like in late May early June ? Is it to cold to swim? Also I see where one site listed him as being 124 pounds why would he need an extra large pants
Or the initials of a person.Wonder if the N.F.L. tatoo is another gang tattoo, for " From Linwood" a Detroit, Michigan gang. Not too distant from Akron and Cleveland.
Hoping I can help out a little here. Looking at historical weather records for June 15, 2015 it appears the daytime high was 82 degrees. That would be fine weather to be swimming in Lake Michigan. There would have been a host of people down at the Lake Front on a day like that.
If he was found at Ohio Street and the Lake Front, he was close by Navy Pier. Navy Pier is an entertainment district including a ferris wheel, restaurants and entertainment venues.
Ohio Street is also the main thoroughfare thru the downtown area from the Kennedy Expressway. Most people going downtown Chicago are reaching the downtown area from the Kennedy Expressway or the Dan Ryan Expressway from the south.
I just recently read a story about a homeless camp that was I believe somewhere near Montrose Harbor. I believe it had to do with the Wilson Street bridge. Let me see if I can find that article again. I believe there was a woman who was helping the homeless fight to keep their housing at that location. Maybe she would recognize him if he was homeless?

Big City thank you! This is great info. I saw he was found near Navy Pier and the homeless camps fits with the clothing. I don’t think he was swimming personally. Who would ever go in wearing 2 pairs of pants? However strange things have happened. I’m not sure if everyone noticed but in one picture there is a particularly gruesome pic of his face in the background. It appears a couple of teeth are missing. Does that happen quite often as a body decays (tooth loss) or could that be a possible way to help identify. Next up the face is severely decomposed so how would they determine Asian vs say Latino?
He was found on June 10 (not 15) and could have been in water since May or April or even prior to that. I do not know weather over there but I assume it would be still cold enough in those months to correspond with him wearing underpants? For some reason I do not see homeless but more situation where some deal gone bad but that just imho.
By the way there was Asian male who is still unidentified found in Cleveland Ohio in 1997. Coincidentally was also found in lake but dead due to undetermined violence. Makes me wonder if it could be anyway related or if Cleveland has big Asian population.

Good to see you on this thread Big City! If the UID was homeless or (even just heavily involved in street life/gang culture) I wonder if he could have previously been a runaway from a group home or foster care? Not having close family ties could explain no one coming forward as recognizing him yet.
