What about this unidentified person? (Namus link, no PM photo).

I know this person was found 7 years after Alan Keith Stanfill disappeared, and the estimated PMI is "months," but this estimate could be wrong because only the skull and a left leg femur were found. Otherwise, race and age range are a match.

Additionally this decedent was found less than a mile away from where Alan disappeared! Could he have been in that wooded area the whole time and just been missed?

Alan is actually the only rule out for the UID.
Strange coincidence on location.

Thanks for the info! I don't have a Namus account so I couldn't see the list of rule-outs. What a weird coincidence!

While this thread is a little a little over a year old, this particular person has seemed to have stuck with me. My cousin's mom was adopted as a baby because her mom was a patient at the same place, but probably 20 ish years earlier. She escaped and came back (voluntarily, idk) pregnant, and the baby (my cousin's mom) was put up for adoption and raised by a horrible family. My uncle never let the couple see my cousins w/o him being in the same room, due to the abuse she experienced from the couple that adopted his late wife. SHe passed away nearly 20 years ago now due to a complication with seizures. But, it got me thinking, how lax is security there where people can just up and leave a psychiatric facility? Any way, I looked up the guy's last name and tons of them are in Jacksonville, FL which is basically across the street from Baker County/Maccleny. I can't seem to find anything w/o starting an ancestry account.
