I wonder if they can tell by the braces whether he had them put on in the U.S. or another country. I am speculating he's either a migrant or was a homicide victim someone drove out into the desert to "hide."

I wonder if his family lives in another country or in the U.S. but are afraid to come forward. Or worse, if they are victims themselves (for example, of traffickers).

But probably someone out there has been missing him for a decade now, sadly.
