Case History

The skeletonized remains of a white male were found in a vacant, burned out business at 4246 Olive in St. Louis, by workers removing gas service. The ribs showed signs of being stabbed. The remains have been exhumed once for DNA and the skull was not found in the casket. The casket had been damaged.

Initially, the remains were believed to possibly have been those of a black male, aged up to 45 years old.


Why would someone break into the casket and steal the skull? Unless it was their trophy.
 
It's going to make it very difficult to identify this person without a skull.
 
When an UID person is buried, do they usually have a marked gravestone and is it public knowledge where the person is buried?
 
As I understand, in St. Louis, unidentified people are buried in a pauper's grave and there is no identification of the site (no stone).

When an UID person is buried, do they usually have a marked gravestone and is it public knowledge where the person is buried?
 
So someone close to the investigation had to have done this...
 
or some sicko, over here they steal them all the time. Its really creepy, why would you want that.
 
Or maybe the pine box which is what would be in a paupers grave was damaged or degraded by environmental factors like rain and wild animals.
 
there is a Namus profile for this UID and there is no mention of a missing skull. either the skull was found later or they used dental x-rays from original autopsy for the dental info.

Namus has the UID as a white male, with blonde/brown hair, 15-35 y.o., 5'8" to 5'11", weight estimated to be 145 lbs. body was found at the same address as the original post so it has to be the same body.

I think they could not possibly confuse a 15 y.o. with a 35 y.o. so I will assume the UID was at least 18.
 
Thanks for finding that, webrocket. It changes the list of possibles if he was white compared to "possibly black".

Hair is described as
Blonde/brown somewhat straight, about two inches in length.

The clothing description might be helpful:

Black rain coat, pink shirt, striped "Fruit of the Loom" boxer type underwear (size 30-32), blue jeans, white socks
White T-shirt found in a pocket was embossed with the logo "Myrtle Beach"
Shoe insole size 8 1/2 to 9

Here's a guy who fits the description spot-on and isn't on the rule-out list. His circumstances are reasonable also.

He isn't listed in NamUs.
 
I thought this sounded familiar. there is already a thread for this UID:

MO MO - St. Louis - *Hot Case 801*, 30-45, 1992 - Websleuths Crime Sleuthing Community

The doenetwork.org page on this body needs updating, there are a few discrepancies.

1) was stabbing the definite cause of death? Nicks on ribs don't always mean the person was killed from stabbing.

2) did they relocate the skull after all? Namus page sez all body parts present.

I think another examination of the skeleton should be in the works. We've come a long way in 20 years.
 
if they are 2 different UIDs then I accidentally placed this guy on the other thread.

It looks like we need to have these threads cleaned up. The other thread has posts about this uid as well. They are very similar.
