weight, hair color, correct
Eye color - Daniel Hazel John Doe brown
Age range - Daniel was 25 when he went missing. Saying Doe is between ages of 30-45

I can't tell if John Doe has the long hair in the back like Daniel, or if it is just his shadow; either way, they look similar.

I just received word back that the CA DOJ lab conducted DNA comparisons and UP7662 is not a match to Daniel.
