Hello all… this is my first time doing this.

Adam Castillo was 21 years old when was last seen at about 2 a.m. Sunday, September 14, 2008, just outside Willcox, AZ, near Kansas Settlement, at a party in the desert near the Blue Sky Road, locally known as “the loop.” There were approximately 25 partygoers at the loop that night, and everybody made it home - except Adam.

On November 18, 2011, partial skeletal remains of an unidentified male were found in a desert area off of Pipeline Road in Ajo, Arizona, Pima County. The area where John Doe was discovered is approximately 3 1/2 hours from Willcox. It is suspected he had been deceased between 2 months to 1 year. He is believed to have been between 15 and 19 years old. His height, weight, hair color and eye color are unknown. The featured reconstruction is an artist's rendering of what the John Doe may have looked like.

NCMEC case number 1250498

Obviously there are some inconsistencies- the timeframe of when Adam disappeared and the suspicion that John Doe had been deceased between 2 months to 1 year. The age range is close, but a couple years off. The location of the body and where Adam went missing from are pretty far- would someone drive that far with a body, when there is already so much remoteness near Willcox? The thing that really stopped me is the resemblance in the reconstruction to Adam.

Thoughts? Is it worth submitting?

Unidentified Wiki

From DNASolves.com: "On July 23, 1990, rescue crews responding to a vehicle accident on California Highway 33 in Ventura County, California discovered the remains of an unidentified woman on a steep hillside near the intersection of Creek Road. The woman's partial remains were found about 60 feet down the hillside, and subsequent searches recovered additional skeletal elements and five teeth. Near the remains, investigators found a hairbrush, a metal clasp, and two small pieces of cloth.

Efforts to identify the woman, including area searches, dental comparisons, and a facial reconstruction drawing created from the skull, were unsuccessful. Despite continued investigative work, the case went cold, and she remained unidentified for decades. The case was entered into the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs) as UP15158."

In 2025, investigators with the Ventura County Sheriff's Office-Major Crimes Investigations working with the Ventura County Medical Examiner's Office, submitted evidence to Othram, where scientists developed a comprehensive genetic profile for the woman.

Law enforcement then used the profile in a genetic genealogy search and developed new leads. A follow-up investigation resulted in the identification of the woman as 57-year-old Patricia Diana (Hunt) Fielding. Patricia was born on October 15, 1933 in Taft, Kern County, California and was a mother of four. However, little is known about Fielding's life before her remains were discovered or the circumstances surrounding her death.

"The Ventura County Sheriff's Office-Major Crimes Investigations is seeking public assistance from anyone who knew Patricia during the relevant time period or who has information about her associates, whereabouts, or activities. Investigators can be contacted by referencing case number 90-55883."

Rest in peace Patricia.

🚨UPDATE 🚨

Lake Mead Barrel Victim Identified as Edward "Buddy"
Jackson

Edward Lelburian Jackson, also known as "Buddy" or
"Uncle Buddy," has been identified as the man whose remains were recovered from a barrel in Lake Mead at Hemenway Harbor in 2022, the Clark County Coroner's Office and Oklahoma State University confirmed.

Jackson was originally from Arkansas and died in his mid-50s. Despite his disappearance and death, he was never reported missing by his family, and limited information about his life has been made public. According to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, Jackson traveled around the country, but investigators have little information about his personality and personal history.

His remains were discovered inside a barrel at Hemenway Harbor in Lake Mead in 2022, a discovery that drew significant attention amid the lake's falling water levels and the emergence of previously submerged evidence.

Jackson's death was ruled a homicide. The circumstances surrounding his death, including who was responsible and how he came to be inside the barrel, remain unresolved.

The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department is asking anyone with information about Jackson's death to come forward. The case will remain open until it is solved.
If you have any information about this case, please contact the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department at 702-385-5555.

The news conference is scheduled for 3 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 15 at LVMPD Headquarters

A man whose remains were discovered in a barrel at Lake Mead back in 2022 has been identified, according to the Las Vegas Metro police.
On Wednesday, officials with the Clark County Office of the coroner/medical examiner, in conjunction with police, said that they had positively identified the person whose remains were discovered at Hemenway Harbor on May 1, 2022.

On May 1, 2022, boaters discovered the unidentified man's body concealed in a barrel near Hemenway Harbor.
Back in 2023, police released images in an attempt to identify a man found deceased in the barrel.

County officials said the man died from a gunshot wound, with the manner of his death being homicide. The 8 News Now Investigators first reported the discovery. Police believe the barrel was fully intact when it was dropped into the lake.

Metro police suspect the man was killed in the 1980s based on personal items in the barrel. The victim was wearing clothing and shoes sold at Kmart stores in the mid-to-late 1970s.

According to the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System, the man's estimated age ranges from 27 to 61 years.

hi everyone! i have a question about finding exclusions for missing and unidentified persons. i have seen other people find them relatively quickly, but no matter which websites or databases i look through, i can’t seem to find them myself. i have tried searching through different resources, but i am still struggling to figure out where this information is usually listed.

are exclusions available directly through NamUs, or is there another website or database that I should be using? are they usually publicly accessible, or does it depend on the individual case and the investigating agency?

i am still learning how to navigate these resources and would really appreciate any advice, recommendations, or tips on how to find this information. even a quick explanation of where to start or what to look for would be a huge help. thank you in advance!

Case details:

On August 30th, 1981. The body of a 21-25 (newspaper states 17-20, other sources state 20-30) year old man was found hanging on the edge of a bird sanctuary near the A178 Graythorpe to Seal Sands Road, near Hartlepool. A post on Reddit mentioned the man had deep cuts on his wrists, and his hands were tied. Firefighters were baffled at how he had managed to hang himself like that.

The man appeared to be between 21 to 25 years old and stood about 5’6″ to 5’7″ tall. He had a slim to normal build, but his features suggested he was quite strong and muscular. His hair was wavy and collar length, a shade of mousey brown, neatly shaped over his ears. His eyes were a mix of blue and grey, accentuated by his thick brown eyebrows. His lips were thin and his teeth were well-maintained.

His hands were short and well taken care of, showing no signs of manual labour. He had a small scar just outside his left kneecap, another on the top of his right shin, and an old scar from an appendix surgery that was about 2 inches long.

In terms of clothing, he was wearing y-front underpants, calf-length grey socks, and Adidas ‘Country’ training shoes in white with green stripes, which were size 7.5 and made in France. Interestingly, each shoe had the name “SAYER” written in capital letters with ballpoint ink. He was also wearing grey corduroy trousers with a metal waist fastener marked ‘GUTOS’ and a fly zip marked ‘OPTI’. There was a small pink label on the inside of his left leg bearing the legend “08894046”. According to UK missing persons unit site, he had a disposable French lighter in his possession.

Notes

With the man’s wrists slashed and tied makes me think, was his death a suicide or murder? Is his name possibly “Sayer”? Also on the Reddit post it was stated that there was a Cold War connection, that the man was disposed of by his handlers. It’s been 45 years and this man hasn’t been identified yet, I hope they investigate whether his death was a murder or suicide, and I hope the news would bring attention to this case by possibly locating where he’s buried, and exhume him for DNA testing. I am sorry if I missed any additional details on his case.

Unidentified Does In Colorado

Skeletal remains of an elderly man were found in a bushland in New South Wales. His death was ruled an accident and may be related to his eyesight problems. He is presumed to be homeless or a transient traveler.

He was found with a note that says "To whom it may concern. - Eyesight absolute shit! Floating cobwebs on increase! unable to work any longer. – No cure I’m told!".

A recent DNA analysis has revealed that the man is likely had Latvian or Middle European heritage.

His Namus case file can't be found does that mean he was identified?

Case

On February 13, 1978, a person riding a train on the Missouri-Pacific tracks that parallel Texas Rt 288 saw skeletal human remains in a wooded area between the tracks and the road near the towns of Fresno and Arcola, Texas. The authorities responded and recovered most of a skeleton; a plastic bag was found near the remains but the authorities could not determine if the bag was connected. No clothes or personal effects were reported to be recovered.

An examination of the remains led to the determination that the person was a white male, with an age range of 17-25, an estimated height of 5'6" (5'5" - 5'9" per another article), and an estimated weight of 145 lb. He had light brown hair and a slender build. He is thought to have been a homicide victim and may have died 3-5 months prior (per the Doe Network).

The teenager or young man had extensive dental work, including numerous fillings and a partially completed root canal / crown on his lower left first molar that likely was done within 12 months of his death. He also had a baby tooth in place of his lower right 2nd premolar. The majority of his teeth exhibited signs of decay, and he had a dental abscess that may have caused him discomfort.

In 2024, Fort Bend County renewed their efforts to identify the victim. A DNA profile was developed, added to genetic databases, and a genetic genealogy search began. The genealogists determined that he was possibly European from the Baltic region, Russia, Ukraine, Poland, or Czechia. Detectives think he probably lived in the region and was either a recent immigrant or the son of immigrants. However, the researchers were unable to find a close enough relative to locate a possible match.

Anyone with information is asked to call FBCSO's non-emergency number at 281-341-4665 and choose option 1. You can also call Cold Case Detective Scott Minyard at 281-341-4651. If you want to remain anonymous, you can call Fort Bend County Crime Stoppers at 281-342-TIPS (8477).

The Disappearance Of Kim I. Moses...

Kim I. Moses has been missing since 1977 (apparently since February 4, 1977). His mother wrote that he was reported to Creek County Sheriff's Office as missing around that time. Due to the extended time elapse, Creek County advised they were unable to locate the report (meaning they likely lost it). He went to Tahlequah Sequoyah High School and was reportedly in the Oklahoma National Guard. He was enrolled with the Kiowa Tribe. His mother has since passed away however he has living siblings.

The Discovery Of Morrison John Doe (1977)...

On February 13, 1977, the mummfied body of a man was found in a military, mummy-style sleeping bag approximately 10 feet over the embankment from US Highway 285 in Jefferson County, Colorado. The location was also near the mouth of Turkey Creek Canyon. He had suffered several blows to the head, and his injuries were originally mistaken as being the result of an animal attack. He was thought to have been deceased 1-2 months prior to being found.

Possible Witness Account That May Not Even Be Related To John Doe...

An investigation revealed that the man may have been seen alive at the nearby Twin Forks Motel in Tiny Town in December 1976. The man believed to be John Doe, showed up with several minor cuts on his face. He explained that he had been in a fight with his brother, who got him out of the car. He used a payphone at the motel, but failed to reach anyone. Since it was a freezing night and he was dressed lightly, a witness lent him a coat. He returned not long afterwards with his brother to return the coat. It is unclear if this incident was related to the unidentified body.

(Comparisons*

Kim is American Indian/Alaska Native (Native American) and John Doe is possibly Native American

Kim was 20 years old when he disappeared.

John Doe was estimated to be between 18-30 years old.

Kim was 5'8"-5'10" in height

John Doe was estimated to be 5'7"-5'8" in height

Kim was 150-200lbs in weight when he disappeared

John Doe was estimated to be between 125-145lbs in weight

Kim has brown hair

John Doe has black or dark brown hair, measuring 9cm

Bristow, Oklahoma to Morrison, Colorado is 711 miles or 10 hours 3 minutes.

John Doe is estimated to have been deceased 1-2 months prior but I feel like investigators are basing that off that witness' story that could not even be related to John Doe. Kim went missing on February 4, 1977 just 9 days before John Doe would be found. Another interesting detail that caught my attention is John Doe was found in a military sleeping bag and Kim was reportedly in the Oklahoma National Guard. The distance from Oklahoma to Colorado is quite large but if Kim was in the National Guard and the time of his disappearance he could've traveled with them wherever they went.

What are you guys thoughts! Could Kim be a potential match to Morrison John Doe (1977)?

Kim I. Moses

Morrison John Doe (1977)

On April 18, 1973, two teenagers stumbled upon the decomposed remains of two men while hiking west of Elkhorn River in Douglas County, Waterloo, Nebraska.

This man was one of those sets of remains, the other being Douglas County John Doe (OA-73-131))

The location of the remains was prominently known for hunting, it was west of a graveled county road, over a bank and just before a small creek than ran parallel with the gravel road.

Him and the other man had both been severely beaten before being shot several times with either a .22 or .38 caliber weapon.

Due to the state of the remains, investigators theorized they may have been killed as early as January 20 of that year.

This man had been found with a watch that had an inscription that investigators attempted to trace to a repairman but were unsuccessful.

Some articles have surfaced claiming these two men may be former Hell's Angels who got into some bad blood but this has yet to be confirmed.

Clothing & Personal Items

Clothing: Remnants of leather high-top style shoes.

Jewelry: Yellow metal plated Sears & Roebuck pocket watch.

Additional Personal Items: Wire-rimmed glasses. Four brass tokens bearing the letters "D" and "P." A "V" nickel dated 1888. A penny dated 1919. A penknife with the insignia "FOE" (Fraternal Order of Eagles). A silver Wahl Eversharp mechanical pencil. A rusted revolver was also located near the remains with one spent cartridge case under the hammer.

Circumstances of Discovery

Loggers discovered the decedent off Rocky Point Road in the heavily wooded Tualatin Mountains, half a mile south of U.S. Route 30. The area had been logged until the 1940s, and an old, overgrown logging road was nearby. Authorities described the remains as being significantly degraded and were also unable to recover one or both of his hands and one or more of his limbs.

It is believed the decedent had been at the discovery site for an extended period. His estimated date of death is between 1920 and 1955. Examination revealed a single bullet had entered and exited through his temples, with evidence that the firearm was pressed against his head when fired. A loaded, rusted .38 revolver found nearby was believed to be the weapon used.

The revolver was placed in an acidic solution for several weeks to clean it. Upon examination, authorities discovered one spent .38 or .32 caliber revolver shell under the gun's hammer, indicating that someone had fired it shortly before abandoning it. Investigators believe the man's death is a possible suicide based on the presence of the loaded revolver, the spent cartridge casing, and other factors, including personal items found with the remains. Since his discovery, the remains have been in the possession of the Oregon Medical Examiner's Office in Clackamas, Oregon. In 2004, Nici Vance, a forensic anthropologist in Oregon, initiated efforts to identify the remains using forensic DNA technology.

After several years of investigation, a bone sample was sent to the University of North Texas Health Science Center for analysis in 2011. Researchers were able to construct a DNA profile based on the remains.

On March 25th 1975 the body of a fully clothed young woman was found tied to a tree by both hands on the Bidegian Ranch near Newkirk in New Mexico. The decedent was located off of State Route 129 and 1.5 miles from the Newkirk Overpass on I-40. She had been severely beaten and then strangled to death and it was estimated that she had been there for less than a day. Where her body was found showed signs of struggle. She had possibly given birth approximately 2 weeks prior to her death.

The scarf she was wearing was suspected to be the ligature used to strangle her. She was misidentified as a woman from Galveston Texas who was later located after contacting her mother.

She is undergoing testing by the DNA Doe Project.

Case

On the afternoon of March 6, 2010 (some sources indicate 3/7), a person riding a four-wheeler discovered the skeletal remains of a teenager or young woman underneath the Guadalupe River bridge off Interstate 10 in Comfort, Texas. She is thought to be either white or Hispanic, with a possible age range of 17-26 per the Doe Network and a height range of 5'1" - 5'4". It was thought that she had been dead from 1-10 years and had been murdered. The remains were moved to the Bexar County Medical Examiner and subsequently to the University of North Texas Center for Human Identification for further analysis.

The examinations determined that she had several medical issues and had extensive dental work. She had undergone open chest surgery as a child or adolescent and had some deformities in both heels. Fusions were observed in some of the saccral vertebrae and the tailbone was also fused and deviated to the left. She may have had to use crutches, a wheelchair, or a walker. It is also suspected that the victim suffered from congenital health issues. She was thought to have an overbite and some dental discoloration and abnormalities.

She is undergoing testing by the DNA Doe Project.

Picture 5: The Nameless Doe Facebook Post

I've been debating on whether to post this for some months now and i've decided I guess I will. I came across a Facebook post a few months ago around April from The Nameless Doe. It was posted on March 29 and it was about someone who was searching for their uncle whom the family had not seen in over 30 years. His name was Salvador Morales Sanchez. He was born on October 25, 1957. He is originally from Guanajuato, Mexico. The last known places he lived were Kentucky and Chicago. The moment I seen his three pictures I instantly thought of a John Doe i'd seen before while searching around. A John Doe known as "Diego Perez", one of the many aliases he used.

The Discovery Of John Doe...

On February 10, 1998, the body of a man was found on the floor of an unoccupied unit at the Spanish Gates apartment complex, located at 4601 Em Kentucky Avenue in Glendale, Colorado. A maintenance worker, noticing a foul odor, decided to investigate the source. After finding the body, he alerted the property manager, who then called the police. He was in a moderate state of decomposition and was believed to have died approximately three days earlier. His body was surrounded by drug paraphernalia and thousands of dollars in cash. An autopsy found that he had 132 nanograms of heroin per milliliter of blood in his system, and his death was ruled a result of a drug overdose.

The decedent was found with multiple false identification cards, one of which was issued by the Texas Department of Public Safety under the name "Diego Perez", which was not counterfeit, but obtained using stolen credentials. The address listed on it was for a building in Austin, Texas, once owned by the Salvation Army and used as a homeless shelter. Investigators found that the decedent had several prior run-ins with U.S. law enforcement and the Immigration and Naturalization Service, during which he used false names. Multiple Alien Identification Numbers were also found to be associated with him in Immigration and Naturalization Service records including, A22 395 340/022395340 and A22 421 232/022421232. One of his mugshots was taken at Pine Lodge Corrections Center in Spokane, Washington, on May 7, 1986, under the "S. Franco" alias.

Thoughts...

Salvador does not have a missing person report as far as I know. Which leaves me unable to compare him to "Diego Perez". But the pictures of Salvador and "Diego Perez" together bare a huge resemblance in my opinion. Also the names Salvador Sanchez and "Diego Perez" rhyme and sometimes people who are using aliases will use a similar rhyming name that is nowhere near their real name. Also the alias name "S. Franco" leaves me wondering what could that S mean? Maybe it could be abbreviation for his first name Salvador without him actually saying his real full first name. Also since Salvador was born in 1957 he would be 40 years old by 1998 and "Diego Perez" is estimated to be around 25-30 which makes Salvador a bit out of the age range but not crazy far from it. Also "Diego Perez" had tattoos and it's unknown if Salvador had tattoos but he possibly could have.

Also I dont know much about how the immigration stuff works so anyone who does know more is welcome to explain in the comments but Salvador was born in Mexico meaning he wasn't initially an American citizen but he at some point must have came to America since places he last lived include Kentucky and Chicago. I find it interesting that "Diego Perez" had many run-ins with the Immigration and Naturalization Service using a false name and Salvador wasn't originally an American citizen maybe that could be something to tie these two together as well. Not much is known about Salvador and I can't compare anything either or say to much all I can say is that Salvador and "Diego Perez" look very similar. I truly hope i'm wrong and that Salvador is out there living his life somewhere but to go no contact with family for over 30 years is a long time.

Kentucky to Colorado is 1,275 miles or 19 hours 14 minutes. Chicago to Colorado is 1,067 miles or 16 hours 6 minutes. Both are far distances but it seems "Diego Perez" traveled to lots of different places in his life.

What are you guys thoughts? Do you think Salvador Sanchez could be a good potential match to 'Diego Perez"?
