Lone Star Percussion

well that does not narrow it a bit!!!

Wish it had a better estimate for PMI listed. Rodney Brown went missing in late May and his vehicle was found in St Louis. He has a lanyard hanging out of his pocket in a picture on namus. Would a month be sufficient time to deem remains "skeletal" in MO this time of year? Approximately 5'11"-6'0" and 17 yrs old

Considering that Lone Star Percussion appears to be based out of Dallas, I'm betting this UID is from Texas and likely plays the drums.

Malik Rashad Brown out of Fort Worth, TX has his own page on Soundcloud, but he would have only been missing less than a month before this UID was found.

Excellent find! Interestingly, the UID Namus case, despite stating in the description the remains were skeletal, shows:

Condition of RemainsNot recognizable - Decomposing/putrefaction

This would be more consistent with someone missing for a shorter amount of time.

@creepedout Thank you! I wonder if local LE have already contacted Ft Worth LE? I hope so.

I submitted Rodney. Have not submitted Malik - I was looking into him a little on him earlier today before having to get back to work. I agree that he also should be submitted. He was wearing Nikes when he went missing.

So the MP pages for both Rodney and Malik have been taken down, and so has the UP... So it is possible that UP was identified as one of the two, but I cannot find any news reports confirming. Some information on social media about Malik but nothing that confirms whether he was this UP.

I've found an article that says Malik was found on July 22, so this UID wasn't him. I'm not having much luck finding info about RB.
