MI MI - Luce Co, McMillan, WhtMale 23-30, UP6754, facial fracture, Survival knife, poss limped, Oct'87

Looks very good to me.
I'd submit it, or contact them for a rule out list. Is he on NAMUS?
 
No he is not on namus. I am not sure about the bullet, I am wondering if they think that it might be part of his death, so they are not releasing it. I am not sure, the MSP are really weird about releasing info. I submitted it this evening, the detective is off tomorrow so maybe I will hear from him on Thursday. I did speak with the mother and she also mentioned the tooth. I am very interested to see what they say. I am wondering if they have run DNA on him, or if they will have to dig him up.
 
The shape of their nose and jawline is very similiar. Good work, looks like a very close match
 
looks pretty darn close to me...I was thinking about the bullet, as well, but perhaps you're right that they may not want that info out there.
wtg!
 
Hmmm-I no expert-but when I read of those injuries on the left hand side-motorcycle or car accident came to mind--after all a moped-mini motorcycle! Try to Connect with Mich about Missing Ohio Persons and connect with Ohio about John Doe at same time!
 
So apparently the MSP dont work on Veterans day. I will call the LE and see what they have to say.
 
OK update, I am meeting with MSP tomorrow. They think that it is pretty close! I am going to try to get fingerprints for the missing person, and compare them to the DOE. Apparently they have 3 finger prints from the doe. Wish me luck!
 
I also found out that they were skeletal remains (all but some of his feet, and some of his pelvis and organs) , what do you think the chances are the a bullet would fall out?
 
oooo GOOD LUCK!!

and...hmmm...I guess it depends on how well the bullet was lodged, but it's quite possible, I'm guessing--no expertise in these things, mind.
 
Ok thats what I get for getting excited. They cancelled the appointment, so I guess they are just going to let me know when they know somthing. I have to tell you how frustrated I get when I find a good match and then they ditch me. Very frustrated right now<--------
 
I know. It is very frustrating. But you are doing a great job and making things happen!
 
Just spoke with the LE, the denals are a match. They are now looking to fingerprints. I guess if thoes are a match then our job here is done.
 
Great work mtrooper!!!! Keep us posted on those fingerprints!!
 
Dentals are a match?? Wow! I've had my eye on this thread -- thought you made an excellent match here... fingers are crossed!
 
Great work Mtrooper, now his family can finally know where he is.
 
Awesome Job :thumb: If dentals were a match then the finger prints should be a match too. I'm sure the family will be thankful they can finally have some closure. Still this only opens the door to the hows, whys, and whats surrounding his disappearance.
 
Way To Go MTrooper !!!!! What a great gift you gave this family.. Truly a Blessing .... Very Nice work.. Bless you MTrooper...
 
This is so weird, the U.P had two murders in the same county within months of each other, both were around the same are, same height, weight, and hair color and very similar in appearance. The one difference is eye color. My brother Rod Allen Ribble was missing on Nov. 14 and found in Jan he had apparently drifted in the Edison power plant from the water in Sault Ste Marie. He had on the palm tree sweat shirt that he bought in Florida on a visit with me but it wasn&#8217;t on him when he was found. Death was undetermined but in the paper it said his face was contorted on one side. Rod was originally from the Lapeer/Metamora area in Michigan. A friend of Rod&#8217;s hired a psychic who said they saw him in a wooded area with picnic tables&#8230;wonder if the psychic was picking up on this guy. There are some people that think my brother is still alive and that this other guys body was used to end the case as there was a picture in the Detroit news a year later of a crowd at a boat show with a guy the splitting image of my brother and the person even stood exactly the same way, his shirt was off and he had the same developed muscles. Another person said he saw Rod at some gambling casino. Personally I think he&#8217;s dead but there are so many suspicious things surrounding that time.
