So heartless. There are people in my life who get on my nerves but I would NEVER stab them to death or strangle them.

 

[Grungster]

Also, how did Carl do that reconstruction?

 

[Grungster]

It looks like a clay model and not digital so I'm curious

 

[MadMcGoo]

Is anyone familiar with this missing person? I noticed that he disappeared from near Boise, ID in September 1977, one year before this UID was allegedly picked up there. Could Bishop have been wrong about the year? There’s only one photo of Andrew, but he does appear to have similar physical features as the UID. Of course, nothing about a glass eye.

It’s probably a long shot considering it is implied that Andrew was likely lost in those woods, for whatever reason.

Andrew Michael Maloney – The Charley Project

George Jack Beall – The Charley Project

Stats fit perfectly, minus the glass eye. This would be working off the theory that George Jack left Alaska of his own accord (in 1975) and possibly had an accident between his disappearance and murder.

 

[MadMcGoo]

He also reminds me a lot of Russell Randall Thompson – The Charley Project. This is based strictly on appearance though.

If memory serves, he received a picture/scan of the skull and went from there. Don't quote me on that, though.

Franklin David Harder has been ruled out as being Jack. They ruled it out on dentals. A Detective Ive been talking to in Idaho sent me his dentals to show me the differences

ive been obsessed with this case for a good two years n im only just coming across this now, im glad other people are still thinking about him. i had thought he was john barreto for a while, but im seeing that someone in this thread said that he had been ruled out so i guess not aha

they do look really similar, he resembles that first lead sketch that they did of him alot, and like as long as he lost his eye within that few months b4 he was killed i reckon its a possibility

Try checking to see if they have DNA on file for Russell Thompson and call whoever is investigating his case. From experience, you will get no where with Alaska

hey has this dude been ruled out ? seems like a pretty decent match, brown curly hair, similar height, same age.. also james sounds a bit like jack aha. that of course going on the theory that he lost his eye after he was reported missing, but yeah could someone call up for me ?? im in australia n dont have international calls

 

[Natasha Mullins]

Am I correct in saying Franklin Harder and John Barretto are the only rule-outs?

I decided to consider the possibility he was from Canada and here are my two possibilities I found:
Canada's Missing | Case details
Canada's Missing | Case details
John Zeurn looks promising to me, except for the limp since I would assume it would show on the skeleton. He also went missing on my birthday which is a funny coincidence
I don't want to only go off of his killer's leads for this case. I don't trust eyewitness reports and it's strange what Bishop did and didn't remember, so I think it's fair to include Canada as a possibility for this UP's origins. David Wycotte was also traveling to the US so he could have theoretically gotten the Oregan license and lost his eye in those four years.

I want this case solved so badly. Has anyone contacted the investigators about asking the DDP or another genealogical DNA service to take the case? He would be a good candidate for that because his DNA is already on file.

Canadian currency was found in his pockets when his remains were found, so it's very possible that he could have originated from there.

They had to drive through Canada to get to Alaska so he would have definitely needed Canadian currency for that, but the fact that he didn't bother taking any US currency might indicate he was planning to go back to Canada.

John Zeurn looks promising to me, except for the limp since I would assume it would show on the skeleton.

Probably, though depending on the cause, it might not have left much mark on the skeleton, for instance if it was from some kind of muscle or tendon issue. And since the UID's information is a bit sketchy, they might just not have mentioned it.

 

[MadMcGoo]

John looks like a decent possibility aside from his brother’s alleged sighting of him alive in the 80s. I wonder how sure he was about that.

 

[Natasha Mullins]

I submitted Zuern to the Doe Net and might also email the RCMP about it
Did Beall and Thompson get submitted? Those two look promising to me!
