I used to submit more often back before Namus upgraded their system and stopped letting us see if there were identifiers (DNA, dentals, fingerprints). At least then there was something else I could put in the email like - "they both have dentals in the system, could someone compare ?". I didn't usually submit anything if there were no identifiers on either the UID or the MP. I also can't find my email to them as it was a few years back, so I don't remember exactly what I presented to them as my "evidence" as to why someone should look into it, or who the Namus administrator was at the time. I just sent another email to the Namus contacts for each case. Stay tuned...

great, thanks for resubmitting! I might also send an email to the PD responsible for Michael's case (i found a contact email).Im not positive this id can be approved/thrown out easily, as it seems the UID only has dentals, while Michael only has dna (i think this was on his doenetwork page? i dont know why they wouldnt have a kids dentals) ... maybe they can look at UIDs dentals for that chipped tooth?

I received this today - it was good of him to respond so fast:

Thank you for your submission, we appreciate your time and support.

NamUs staff will review the submitted information. Additionally, we will notify the investigating agencies for their consideration if the agencies have not been previously notified.

Please note, identification and exclusions are only made and/or confirmed by investigating agencies. The results of comparisons may or may not be made available to the public for investigatory reasons.
​

So, time will tell...(maybe...).

updated NamUs link to this UID.
In the past 6 years, no new rule-outs have been added, and it looks like @Paisley_in_Ottawa 's email about Michael Gaughan never went anywhere.
I might re-send an email...clearly they have methods of excluding Michael, he's got 64 rule-outs on his page.

Thoughts on Michael LaMagna (NamUs)?

I think Michael Scott McLaughlin could be a possible match:

7DMNY - Michael Scott McLaughlin

What do you think?

Sure could be a good candidate. A lot matches (height/weight/first name) and I wouldn’t be too concerned about the timeline.

This case is being featured by DoeNetwork this month so hopefully some leads come about! I do think some of the suggested Michaels in this thread could be good matches. I wonder if the Mike + Barb could be his parents or grandparents?

Hi
Just throwing this out there, but due to tattoos "LOVE" and "Mike and Barb" i'm wondering if he was a fan of Folk/Folk Rock. Both were bands which were active at this time period

Did you re-send? I think it’s a good match. Known to have a “Mike” tattoo on left forearm and is a Libra. And he’s still not a rule-out.
