Russell Randall Thompson was missing a decent bit out of the PMI but he still does seem possible.

Most of his vital statistics are within reason and, while he is out of the PMI, I wouldn't say it's incredibly so, especially given how little info there is on Thompson. Seems like a pretty good possible match to me.

These two young men were also found in Churchill County in similar circumstances in '93 and '96. Is there a connection?
