"Definitions[edit]According to the Oxford English Dictionary middle age is between 45–65:[SUP][2][/SUP] "The period between early adulthood and old age, usually considered as the years from about 45 to 65." The US Census lists the category middle age from 45 to 65. Merriam-Webster list middle age from 45-64,[SUP]..."

I imagine that LE would have an official definition as to what middle aged is for identification purposes across the LE agency. I think it would hinder an investigation if one officer chooses 55 to be middle aged and another chooses 70.
Respectfully, LE doesn't have the luxury here of calling someone middle aged instead of old. If they want to be polite, they might say something like "elderly gentleman."
I believe that when LE says that the photo indicates to them that BG is middle aged, they are going with a predefined agency guideline which would most likely mirror government guidlelines (45-65).

Middle aged when already 65??? :laughing: Thank you :loveyou: because then I'm younger then I thought! Yust on the edge to "elderly" (69)? Wonderful, I like the interpretation!
I have children in the real middle age sector and they are around the BG I would estimate (on average ca. 44yo).
