Looks pretty close! I decided to bring Carl’s recon forward...it looks quite like Bennett.

Thanks! As a transplanted New Mexican, I'd like to see Mr. Wall "home" to his family.

I too would like to see Bennett’s case solved.

I submitted him and this UID to Doe Network. I requested they add “Douglas” to their site before realizing I had checked NM UID for him instead of NV . His profile is also headed with “Unidentified Female”, which is incorrect. I’m sure they’ll catch that. ETA: I went ahead and alerted them of the mistake, just in case.

Bumping case up. I looked through NamUs for potential matches, but nobody new stood out.

I do wonder why he used an alias, how he passed away, whether he has been reported missing, and what any missing relatives think about his whereabouts.

Aliases always make me think of fugitives tbh. Although there was a recent Doe who used an Alias and was identified by Othram and apparently he was not a fugitive at all. So you never know.

Decedent was a natural death at his residence. He was identified visually by his wife, with the ID being confirmed by prints in 2006. However, it was recently discovered that the decedent was living under the fake identity of "Steven A. Mason" for 10+ years. Real identity is unknown.

Maybe @othram can get involved here as well? Here's hoping there is a resolution in the future!

Aliases always make me think of fugitives tbh. Although there was a recent Doe who used an Alias and was identified by Othram and apparently he was not a fugitive at all. So you never know.

I can think of other reasons for an alias: to hide from a dangerous person, to hide from financial debt, to avoid paying child support, or just want to completely start a new life for their own reasons. But it is interesting.

There is one wanted fugitive who might match this Doe but the warrant was issued in September of 1987. I am trying to see what the date was of his prison escape.

Does anyone else see a resemblance or is it just my early morning non-caffeinated eyes this morning?

Brown hair, blue eyes (not grey), 6’4, multiple aliases.

I think he looks very much like Kent Ware. Recon on left of Doe, photo of Mr. Ware (from 1979, 5 years before last seen in 1984) on right. There is a 3" height difference and hair color (strawberry blonde; I will say mine got darker as I aged); however, physical resemblance, eye color, and location are good. I can't speak to the time difference of 2 1/2 years between missing and location of Doe but not much appears to be known about Mr. Ware's disappearance.
