Since the day he was found, a gray, lifeless, computer-generated composite drawing has been the best guess of what the boy might have looked like.
Until Friday.

Forensic anthropologist Erin Kimmerle, an associate professor at the University of South Florida, spearheaded the project dubbed the Art of Forensics. She brought in 11 forensic artists to create clay facial models of nine unidentified victims from Florida's cold case files.

He was about 5-feet tall. He wore size 30 Ice Pole brand jeans. He carried a Chopper brand wallet with a chain. He rolled his own cigarettes and lit them with a red lighter.

Bone density patterns suggested he did a lot of bending and heavy lifting. The woods where he was found are adjacent to a tomato field. He likely did agricultural work, the kind common among Wimauma's migrant labor community.

He carried La Tarjeta Gorda — a "Fat Card" — with $5 prepaid for phone calls to Latin America. Chemical isotope testing of his bones suggests he may have come from Guatemala, or the Oaxaca region of Mexico.

I just checked briefly but I'm not finding any information...LE may be investigating... They have numerous UIDs on their website, but no mention of partial remains from 2017...

Weirdly Mateo Delacruz and Rigoerto Perez (both mentioned as Namus ruleouts back in post #4 on this thread) no longer appear in the list.

Bumping case up.
I don't think the two reconstructions look a lot like each other. Do we think the clay model is probably closer?
Poor "kid." An unidentified probable migrant worker is heartbreaking.

They don’t look alike to me either. His face in the clay would be based off the skull wouldn’t it?? Definitely more of an indigenous look to him and appears younger. If he was late teens or early 20s, I would think the wisdom teeth, either erupted or not, would pinpoint the age better. 20-40 is an adult and dentals would show that I would think.
