That comb over goes the same way, left to right
This was started by a news article, so I'm not sure about that but if we want to include Wallace we need a thread, if ciriii manages to get him on doe network can we do it then and can we link the threads? Hello Romulus been a minuteWe can't create a thread without making sure it's gone; from what I know in Websleuths, in theory we really can't create it if it's not on Namus, Doe Network or some institutional law enforcement site.
Well we know that he was missing because it is stated in the newspapers. But we don't know if he continued to be missing, that is something I am awaiting confirmation on.This was started by a news article, so I'm not sure about that but if we want to include Wallace we need a thread, if ciriii manages to get him on doe network can we do it then and can we link the threads?

My problem too, location, but either pd dept would have to open a new case or nothing happens. As far as I know the LE on Namus, faces, Doe Network should be contacted to open a new case. But if they are not on these sites then the PD where they went missing or were found should be contacted and all material handed to them, that's as far as we can go legally. Anyone living close to those areas in the USA can also contact private investigators and ask them to help by reaching out to LE with all materials but we may not contact family or insert ourselves into any investigation.Well we know that he was missing because it is stated in the newspapers.

His family lived in Lexington, but he disappeared from Memphis so again, I am not sure who would have held the file?
I have been trying to find anything in old newspapers and the FBI bulletins about him but there is nothing at all. He was either found, or his case was closed.
I do not believe he was found becuase there is no record of his existence at all post 1975. I can trace his various family members, but not him.
I am not in the US so I am not sure I am the best person to be making enquiries of LE, but if anyone did want to I would try with Lexington or Memphis Police Departments. However my feeling is that those files will have been long ago destroyed.
I also checked the FBU bulletins to see if they had published the fingerprints of BCJD but I had no luck there either.
The whole note isn't on Meduim I believe? I just saw one page and the note doesn't exist today so all we have is old newspaper accounts like the following article where the journalist says he cites an idea of Durkheim. Article clipped from The Post-CrescentBTW, I read the suicide note on medium, he doesn't quote durkheim, he just writes a letter, the journalist says he quotes durkheim, sorry for the rabbit hole digression, i just noticed because I rewrote the note in my junk journal. So sad.
I found the grave of CW’s father on ‘Find a Grave’. In his obituary it says he was preceded in death by his son CW. On the site it shows family members that have previously died and linked to the location of their graves. CW doesn’t have a grave link, perhaps because there is none.I would if I could! Wallace has no LE investigator because he was never reported missing it seems. Wallace's 2 brothers are both still alive. I have reached out to someone in this case and am just waiting to hear back.
He could have been privately buried or cremated. My dad has an obit but no grave listing because he was cremated and ashes scattered with my stepmom’s.I found the grave of CW’s father on ‘Find a Grave’.

The fact that there isn’t any grave listing for him and he hasn’t been reported missing is interesting to me. It’s a big part of why I lean heavily to CW being BCJD.
This is not the case if it has already been reported but what do you think of this profile?

No hate from me. While CW does hit a lot of the boxes, I’m still considering and searching for other possible matches.I'm going to be the poster everyone hates and chime in again to suggest everyone also continue to keep an open mind about who else the BCJD may have been.
I understand Charles Wallace ticks many of the boxes, but I think we need to consider others as well.
Always frustrating as so many missing were never reported, or records lost and destroyed.
I thought she said his hair was too dark to be Charlie but then said she couldn't tell because his skin was so pale?While that alone does not rule him out, remember Mrs Wallace said the BCJD was "too dark" to be Charlie? His hair, and so on?
There didn't even need to be a reason for no missing person report. LE were very resistant to take reports of adults who had voluntarily left. Hell, you had all on to get them to accept reports of kids without the usual "they've run away, they'll come home".Personally I’m still thinking this may have been a local who was never reported missing, possibly because of religious reasons.
I agree, there is no reason not to report someone missing. However like you said police didn’t do anything for adults or even kids that ran away multiple times in the past. That’s an issue even now.There didn't even need to be a reason for no missing person report.
I think that's really interesting and a very good idea to look into. I had no idea a Catholic who committed suicide couldn't be buried in a Catholic cemetery! That would seem like a possible reason not to claim him, it sounds awful to say I know but if you're a devout Catholic and you can't give your son a proper burial and send off...well what are you gonna do?The reason I mentioned religion is because RCs that committed suicide couldn’t be buried in Catholic cemeteries. Maybe his family did recognize him and didn’t claim out of embarrassment or shame. He wouldn’t have been able to be buried with them. Just a random thought I had over the week.
