I wonder who this is...

Wow...If the other woman had not gone in the lake, this man probably would still not be found. I wonder how long he has been in there !!

 

[englishleigh]

Could this be Mark Jackson??

 

[ShowerSinger]

Englishleigh, it's a possibility. Yet, I doubt it. It wasn't Mark's car... and there is a good deal of crime in Miami. I would have thought a car accident, since there are so many canals. BUT, the body in "belts" says no accident.

 

[amandab]

Could this be Mark Jackson??

Englishleigh-

That was my first thought. I tried to temper it with the fact that there are several men missing from that general area, but I'm hoping that they are able to identify him soon, whoever he is.

Me, too, Amanda!!

I e-mailed them, hoping for an update. Will let you know what I find out.

Thanks!!

 

[amandab]

Of course, I never got a response to my e-mail. Does anyone here know a good way to get some info out of them?

 

[englishleigh]

There's been no other news on this, either?? I wonder if it was a mob hit.

The original link is dead so I'm not certain that it's the same case but the circumstances seem to fit what little information is given in this thread.

Surely you can estimate weight if you know he's 5'8" and a 31" waist. I'd say that would have to be around 150.

 

[madamx]

I have looked around for info on this guy and have not seen anything. the original article does not work either

 

[ghostINshell]

If only they told us what kind of car it was.

…..Watch stopped at 6:35. a gold colored ring with two crosses. Personal effects also include a cell phone clipped to the jeans, dental floss containing little plastic bags of white powdery substance, and a wallet containing multiple identification cards.....

So I'm guess this white or hispanic man either had fake ID or the details were so washed out from the water that they couldn't distinguish the information.

This may be cutting it too close but I don't know.

 

[ChatteringBirds]

Bumping case up.

 

[ChatteringBirds]

Bumping up one more time. I wonder why if they found a vehicle, they can't identify him.
Was it a stolen vehicle?
I assume they have DNA by now.
Any known Rule-outs, please?
