    GA GA - Atlanta, WhtMale 20-30, 178UMGA, hit by car on I-75, Virgo tattoo, Jul'95 - Steven Shelton

    The tattoo almost looks like it was supposed to be an ambigram (readable upside down and right side up) based on a design like this one Ambigram - Virgo | Flickr - Photo Sharing!. The flourish at the end of the O looks like it could make a V and a dotted I upside-down. It doesn't look quite...

    NAMUS posts new image

    Found the gentleman in the yearbook photo... He is alive. I should also mention how incredible some of the new reconstructions have been lately. I'd never guess this was a reconstruction.

    Carl, you're absolutely right with the resemblance. (And I appreciate your yearbook sleuthing-- it helped me to find the very first photos of our formerly MP.) Going with Cubby's line of thought, if there are two typos in the last name, there are a lot more hits for living people with that name.

    NH NH - Maura Murray, 21, Haverhill, 9 Feb 2004 - # 8

    It's awesome to see all the Pinocchio's love... I miss their barbecue chicken calzones! Maura was probably ordering food for delivery because it's one of the few ways to use a stolen credit card without a physical card. Even online orders check to match the name and shipping/billing address on...

    Thank you for the update Donjeta. I was wondering about this. Interesting that NamUs gives it low identification potential when it's fresh enough to recover DNA. =(

    Identified! Australia - Sydney, Female body in tree, Jan'12 - Melissa Dietzel

    Thank you for being so open about her story. I never knew bipolar disorder could have the added curses of hallucinations and sleep deprivation. It makes me more amazed by the daily difficulties sufferers have to face.

    There's just something about Pollyanne Jean Carter's eyes that made me think of this UID... Pollyanne would have been 22 in 1991, and I don't think she could have grown 6 inches after age 16, though. Pollyanne Jean Carter

    WA - Unidentified Male: "Lyle Stevik", Grays Harbor, 17 Sept 2001 - #4

    Note: that particular poster was known to be alive after Lyle was found.

    WA - Unidentified Male: "Lyle Stevik", Grays Harbor, 17 Sept 2001 - #4

    I keep thinking it's worth revisiting the alt.suicide.holiday connection. It came up earlier as a potential source of instructions for Lyle's hanging method (Steven's suspension hanging). Alt.suicide.holiday was a newsgroup, an early form of internet message boards grouped by topic. I never...

    FL FL - Tampa Bay, WhtMale 1321UMFL, 15-25, Sunshine Skyway Bridge, Oct'80

    Thank you, Kimster. I just had really high hopes when the location and time period had so much news archived freely online, and it turned up nothing new. I messaged the owner of the bridge website, just in case he was aware of anything fitting this incident, and he was kind enough to...

    FL FL - Tampa Bay, WhtMale 1321UMFL, 15-25, Sunshine Skyway Bridge, Oct'80

    I've been digging through area papers on Google News for the last hour and a half-- I am thinking it's really strange that I haven't been able to find ANY mentions of our UID. Maybe he was never identified because this wasn't publicized in the local media? There are dozens of articles about...

    FL FL - Tampa Bay, WhtMale 1321UMFL, 15-25, Sunshine Skyway Bridge, Oct'80

    Oh. There is a whole website dedicated to suicides on this bridge. I am not sure I wanted to find that. But the scanned articles from this time period are helpful.

    FL FL - Tampa Bay, WhtMale 1321UMFL, 15-25, Sunshine Skyway Bridge, Oct'80

    This young man is so recognizable that I have to wonder if he was a known death where the body was never found. Perhaps he was a drowning victim or involved in a boating accident. I searched to see if FL had any public records on these types of incidents and was surprised to find the bridge...

    Donjeta... That is a really interesting theory! Mickey Brougham disappeared from one NASCAR race in June, and there would have been a Pocono race in August of that year. Here's the 2010 Nascar schedule.

    Identified! NY - Brooklyn, WhtMale, 20-30, 6'8", 539 lbs, Sep'11 - Kenneth Ecker

    Friends and family of Ken, I am so sorry for your loss. I wish we could have helped you bring him home sooner.
