Forensic experts from the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) are hoping to identify a body found in Chesapeake Virginia by using the man's remains for a facial reconstruction.
NCIS Special Agent Ed Gardner, a forensic artist based at the NCIS office on the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC) in Brunswick Georgia, is working meticulously to create sketches and a sculpture, which should result in a good approximation of what the man looked like before he died sometime last year.
Chesapeake Police asked NCIS to help identify the man whose body was found in the Elizabeth River in September of 2006. The body of a black male was recovered from the Elizabeth River. It was determined he had been in the water for approximately a week. The male was discovered unclothed and was wearing a Ferrari watch. The watch was aired by local media but generated few calls. There were no unique physical characteristics that would assist in identifying the man. Detective T. Downing, assigned to the case, was able to rule out numerous missing persons that fit the description during this period.

He looks like a very solid possible for this John Doe.

* Height (5'9") is spot-on
* Age (40) is at the top end of the estimate (20-40)
* He was last seen on 25-Aug-2006 - 10 days before the John Doe was discovered (04-Sep-2006), and the body had been in the water about a week.
* He was last seen in Gaithersburg MD. - about 200 miles from where the body was found.
* Very solid resemblance.
 
Very good resemblance. Let us know if you get word of a match?
 
Just realized that the UID's NamUs casefile is offline. Maybe someone already spotted it.

But I e-mailed Pamela Reed anyway, just in case.

Little trick I learned with Namus is when a case goes offline to look at the Spanish version...

Identified: William Valencia-Trujillo

He is not listed on any of the missing sites and I can't find any mention of him on the internet at all. Grrrrrr! /EndLittleRant
 
Here's William Valencia Trujillo's photo, compared to the reconsructions.
