uff that photo is graphic, squeamish please dont look at it.

 

[bombardier]

Ethnicity is unknown but he looks Hispanic to me, especially coupled with his stature.
Sounds like he was carrying his life in his backpack. Homeless?

 

[ifindedout]

Probably homeless, maybe a migrant. MOO

 

[cvaldez1975]

his stuff was all newer and quality stuff. but its def still possible he was homeless

 

[Hochman]

Shame on the MCSO for releasing that image. I do think he's technically recognizable due to his facial features being intact, but if they had to release that photo the least they could have done was crop out gore.

Anyways, I wonder what the manner of death was? Was it an accident or a suicide?

 

[benowens]

It unfortunately looks mundane for somebody who was hit by a train.

That postmortem photo is...unusually bad.

Yeah. They shoulda sketched him.

 

[ProudSuggestion3528]

Yeah. They shoulda sketched him.

Agreed!

Graphic PM photo aside, $216 seems like a lot for someone to carry with them if they were say, using the railroad tracks as a short cut to walk back home from the store. In addition he was carrying a lot of things with him if he lived nearby. If not homeless, I feel like this guy was at least transient. Maybe even hitching rides on freight trains.

 

[EmiliaRT007]

Agreed!

Yeah. I’m not gonna go into too much detail but the dude literally has a hole in his head. Too graphic for even those who generally can stomach PM photos, like me. Most of ‘em just look like they’re sleeping.

Possible. Riding rails is more common in this day and age than most people think, but it’s often deadly. I used to live in a second story apartment on a road that had a freight train track going down the middle. From my vantage point I often saw people tucked into grain cars train hopping.

it looks like the train hit the back of his head and its gone

It looks like the NSFL PM photo are no longer available on NamUs. However, his belongings and a photo of his scar on arm is still available.
