Australia Australia - Blue Mountains, NSW, Male 995UMNSW, 50-64, @ Echo Point, 4 June 2004

Its just a htought...
I wonder if there was ever a camera handed in or found lost around that time.
It seems strange for a tourist not to have a camera. (if he was a tourist)
It could have also been the reason her fell - taking pictures on the steep tracks, its not hard to loose your balance.

There is an information centre at Echo Point - I wonder if they had a camera handed in to them, and not the Police.
If there was, it is probably gone now - but I wonder if there was a record of one being handed in and not collected?

Has anyone ever considered that it might be Charles Grayson Sudduth? He flew from California to Sydney 3 months before this John Doe was found, and he has never been heard from again. It is interesting to note the pathologist spent 3 months piecing the skull back together. Was it from a great height? Was it animal predation? Charles has been in accidents before and was already deformed. Could them trying to piece the skull back together 'properly' have given the effect of deformity to the ear etc?
Thinking out loud here.

NSW Police release handwritten note from Echo Point man whose body is still unidentified

A chilling note from a man found at Echo Point may be the clue police need to identify his body, which is one of hundreds of remains piling up at police, mortuary and forensic facilities.

In a remarkable DNA breakthrough this week, NSW Police have linked the man to the note which was discovered inside a backpack found on top of the man’s body at Echo Point in the Blue Mountains in 2004.

Hi websleuths! I am new here!

I’ve been privately looking into the 995UMNSW unidentified remains case and found some potential leads suggesting they might belong to Nikiforos Kavvalos. The main hang-up is the height: the 995UMNSW remains were estimated at roughly 178cm, while the Australian Missing Person Register has Kavvalos at 165cm.

I suspect this discrepancy is exactly why he was overlooked when the remains were first discovered. Given the 150-200m fall involved, skeletal height estimates aren't always perfect, and I’ve mapped out a few ways that gap could be explained. Aside from the height, the rest of the evidence is really compelling. I’d love to get some second opinions on my report to see if my logic holds up.

I have linked a GoogleDoc of my report in View-Only, so please leave your responses on the thread! Anything would help, thank you.

I managed to find and speak to someone connected (I am not disclosing the connection) to Nikiforos Kavvalos who claimed that there was a possible sighting of Nikiforos in the Blue Mountains on the same day (which isn't mentioned anywhere online), before I had mentioned anything about Unidentified Remains 995UMNSW. There is more information I have collected, I won't go into too much detail as this is still ongoing and I would like to remain respectful to the family.

While I am not yet 100%, I believe I have solved the case of 995UMNSW.

Hopefully this case will be solved by the end of the week.
