I am wondering what happened to the thread that was opened yesterday? I can't seem to find it. Any help would be great, thanks.
I'm curious where the beige colored version originated. The missing fliers and FBI webpage shows a black and white version. I would assume this is the true original pencil rendering. The beige sketch looks like the black/white sketch that has been enhanced with a photo app. The beige copy shows the spot between the eyes, but the black/white version just shows that area as a larger white area similar to other white areas within the drawing...basically no pencil shading. (Trying to add picture, but can't get it to work so here's a link to a flier that has the black/white version ...https://www.fbi.gov/wanted/seeking-info/abigail-williams). I realize the overall picture is what's important. Just a thought.
My thoughts was that it's the flat part between the brow before the bridge of the nose starts to protrude from the head, or maybe also to show what sort of brow line he has, like say flat versus sunken or with no prominate mid brow wrinkles ( like i have lol) all imoSomething I noticed about the sketch that I can't get a grasp on just yet.
There appears to be a lighter colored circle somewhat between his eyes on his forehead. I'm having a hard time trying to describe it. See picture.
So, I'm wondering why that area is lighter in color that the rest of the area? Could this be from sunglasses? Anyone else with any other thoughts?
LOL. He looks like he has a bullseye on him when I circle the spot....LOL
Let today be the day!!

The original press release from ISP was beige.

I think it's the other way around. Converting a sepia toned drawing to black and white usually causes light areas to seem more prominent in contrast to the blacks.I'm curious where the beige colored version originated.

Eta> also those mentioned alcohol issues related to facial features rang a bell to me of a syndrome i had remembered researching, fetal alcohol syndrome? I personally am not to sure if that's the case here but give it a look up, there are various mental ailments that go along with it like social issues and such just if you are Interested.

IMO DNA phenotyping is largely responsible for the sketch. A "witness" coming forward after 5 months makes no sense at all.
Turnaround time for a DNA phenotype sketch is 4-6 weeks. Most likely expedited in this case. That means LE has had this sketch for some time now.
The announcement of a "witness coming forward" is to protect LE from criticism for withholding sketch from the public.
Hey......whatever works to catch this guy!
This morning googling news a NYTimes article came up quoting Sgt Riley that changes up the details a little bit about the sketch and how it was obtained. It's dated Tuesday 7/18/17. With all due respect to LE, just wanted to show the variations put out since Monday morning.
1st version: At the press conference Monday morning 7/17/17 Sgt Riley made an apparent slip saying "she" when referring to a witness.
2nd version: Later on Monday 7/17/17 subsequent news articles via Associated Press quoted Sheriff Leazenby as saying the 'witness saw the man walking near Delphi..only recently met with an FBI sketch artist...he cannot discuss where the witness saw the unidentified man...' http://www.nbc29.com/story/35903873/witness-aided-in-sketch-of-suspect-in-indiana-teens-deaths
3rd most recent version in italics below:
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/18/us/delphi-murders-indiana-sketch.html
Sgt. Riley said in the interview on Tuesday that the sketch of the suspect had been made from information the authorities received from public tips, but he declined to say whether the information came from one or more people or how it was handed over.
“It came through because of information that we received from persons that were in the area,” around the time the girls went missing, he said. “Either we did not make contact for the first time, or they were afraid to come forward.”
Sgt. Riley said the sketch artist had started about a month ago to piece together the descriptions, frequently consulting the witness or witnesses to refine the drawing. Investigators also interview people offering descriptions to make sure they are not just trying to get someone into trouble, he said.
“It takes quite a while to get a sketch put together,” Sgt. Riley said. “We let the person look at the picture and come back a few days later and ask, ‘Do you remember anything else?’”
Sgt. Riley said that after the release of the sketch, extra personnel were brought on to help with the expected influx of information.
I believe it is possible that "The police will not say where the witness encountered the POI" and "That the witness did not come forward sooner because they were afraid" could be that the witness encountered the POI on their own property.
Several residences border this trail near the crime scene and they are not fenced off. If the POI wanted to exit the crime scene in a hurry, and did not want to risk being seen by other potential hikers, he certainly wouldn’t back track along the hiking trail.
Is it possible he made a side exit out of there crossing over private property while doing so? That would help make sense about why a witness would be afraid to come forward about this encounter. Because POI knows where she lives. I can’t come up with any other logical reasons to fear coming forward. If the POI and the witness know each other we wouldn’t only have just a sketch right? So why be afraid to come forward?
HMMMMMM?????
