The algorithm censors the Latin word for “man” because it is the same as a slur for gay men. Anyway, apparently the UID was a devout Christian, possibly Roman Catholic

I just looked at the namus profile and it looks like the profile was updated and the tattoos have more info.

Tattoo
R upper arm: Tattoo of Christ head with a green crown and a red collar (possibly signaling Ecce Homo)

L upper arm: Celtic cross with rose and ribbon that say "In memory of Dad"

L forearm: Two interlocking hearts and ribbon with "Mom and Dad"

I feel like his tattoos would’ve been mentioned, especially something as prominent as a forearm tattoo, no?

The tattoo does look like the painting "ecce homo" which in Latin means "behold the man". There are also some words in Italian that are censored due to being the same as slurs. Makes sense since italian is largely based on Latin I think.
