BACKGROUND
I think this is the case with the least information I have found so far.
As per NamUs, “Discovered unresponsive on the sofa of an adult foster care home.”
The victim is believed to me a Caucasian male. He weighed between 150 to 170 pounds and stood between 5’7” to 5’9” in height.
NamUs does not list an estimate age range, and for his estimated age group it says, “Cannot determine”. His eye colour and hair colour are also listed as “unknown”. I do not know how they could not know or estimate these things, especially being in an adult foster care home, someone would have known/seen him to tell them these things, I’m sure. Also, obviously, would the foster care home not have information and documentation for this Doe?
There is a chance the Doe could not tell anyone his name due to some sort of disability/disabilities. If this was the case, you would think the foster home would have information given to them by other people, the state, etc. or just information such as an estimated age, hair colour, or eye colour.
He had a recognizable face, but there is no reconstruction nor are there postmortem photos available.
