Wasn't sure where to put this. It is current news as it was just on KREM news last night. It doesn't state whether foul play is suspected, so I figured best to post here rather than 'Crimes in the news' forum.

Medical examiner seeks public's help
06:29 PM PST on Tuesday, January 23, 2007

SPOKANE -- The Spokane Co. Medical Examiner has released a composite sketch of a man whose body was found in the Spokane River last June.

There is evidence the man was in the water for quite some time, perhaps up to two weeks. However, all attempts to identify the man have failed.

Based on bone structure, an artist created a sketch of the victim. He was approximately 6 foot 1, 200 pounds.

The man's body was found along the Spokane River June 18th, at the far west end of Broadway. If you have any information, call the medical examiner.


You can see the composite sketch of the man found in the Spokane River (WA) last June here:

IF someone is able to post the composite here, that would be great!

Thanks for you help, BhamMama! You're an angel!

The lady I spoke with at the medical examiners office regarding another "john doe" also told me that she would be updating her site with a few photos of the unidentified if you all want to check that out as well. The photos are only of unidentified who are in her words "really good shape."
 
That is eery...it's possible.
 
Wow--seems possible. It is worth a phone call to the police department in this case. Wow.
 
Joe Pichler does have a thread or 2 here on WS.


This is a possible, IMO.

Has it been called in yet? Need me to do it?
 
Dang. Close enough to check out, certainly.

Have Christine call!

Isn't it sickening though to feel like you don't want it to be, but you do? And you're not even a relative? Oh, man. :sad:
 
Hey guys-I called the ME office to see if this man had already been compared to Joe. I want to say the last time I had contact with Kathy Pichler, Joe's Mom, that Joe had been compared to all UID's in WA state as of 2008...but who knows.

The Spokane ME's office is going to call me back shortly.

GREAT GREAT find!!!
 
sorry guys had to take a lil nap before my kids got up that thing had me staring all night, sorry for starting a new thread...i figured he chose me so randomly that nobody would have discussed him.
 
I spoke with the ME-she compared him to Joe and ruled him out a while back. Just as an aside, this incredibly bright astute lady knew just what Joe's teeth/dentals looked like from memory....amazing.

This poor UID has bad teeth, perhaps as a result of long term substance abuse over time. I am glad you started a new thread because he also deserves a name so he is worth digging around for.

Peace

Aww I was so hoping, well at least that got me interested in his case. Back to the drawing board.
 
Sorry it's my first attempt and it was more of a stumble that I couldn't get out of my brain. Does anybody think these look like the same guy?http://www.doenetwork.org/cases/1051umwa.html http://www.missingkids.com/missingk...NCMA&seqNum=1&caseLang=en_US&searchLang=en_US

Actually, I'm thinking this http://doenetwork.org/cases/993umwa.html looks like your first link.

What do you think?

Weird. Obviously they are not each other because they are both UIDs and one was found a year later. But what is interesting is that they are both from Washington. To me, they look similar. I'll have to go back and read each's story again.

Vital Statistics

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Case History
The victim was located in the Spokane River behind the back yard of 1201 Evergreen, San Souci Trailer Park, Spokane.
The body was found entangled in brush near the shoreline and was noted to be in an advanced state of decomposition, dressed only in underwear briefs and socks.
A number of post-mortem traumatic injuries are present suggesting the body may have traveled down the river some distance.
The absence of clothing may or may not be related to current, rocks, and so on.
The estimated time the body was in the river prior to discovery, is likely not less than one to two weeks but could be considerably longer.
Age is estimated at between 20 and 40 years, with late twenties to early thirties thought to be more likely.
Fingerprints were not possible and the body is not visually identifiable. However, an artist's rendering of the man's face was drawn based on a thorough examination of the facial structures and skeleton.
The toxicology was positive for marijuana and caffeine.
The manner of death are undetermined. The decedent may have recently (perhaps May or early June) been released or gone missing form a Group Home, mental ward, jail, or other institution. He may also have been suicidal.

Kelowna News January 20, 2006

Every day he’s gone, Michael Bosma’s condition will get worse. Every day he’s gone brings him more confusion and disorientation.
Every day he’s gone wears on family who miss him so.
John and Wendy Bosma told reporters Thursday that they believe their 26-year-old son could be just about anywhere.
He has been missing since he walked out of a transition home for people with mental disorders on Monday, Jan. 9.
The 6-foot-one, 270-lb man suffers from schizophrenia and is coming off a break down.
Without his medication, his parents can only guess at his current condition.
“He will be confused, disoriented,” Wendy said.
“He is not dangerous or anything but when you’re disoriented you can do anything that can cause a chain reaction of other things.”
He wouldn’t hurt himself or others, she says, but schizophrenia is a thought-disorder that could lead him into any situation.
He was diagnosed at age 19, but at times since then Bosma has led a very regular life.
He has friends, had his own apartment and even attended college for a time. The stresses of exams last fall led to a break down that landed him in hospital.
He was staying at Coral House when he walked out around 9 a.m.
He was due for his medication at 11:30 p.m. but never showed up.
No one from the home contacted the Bosma’s until the following morning.
“I was surprised by that,” Wendy said.
“If he was staying at our house and he wasn’t back, we would have been out there to look for him.”
He removed some money from a bank account at a Chevron station at Pandosy Street and Harvey Avenue Tuesday morning but from there seems to have vanished with very little cash and no identification.
Police have issued a Canada-wide warrant for his detention under a mental health warrant.
At first, Wendy figured he might be at the mall, where it is warm.
She thought maybe a movie theatre or Internet cafe or sipping a coffee at Tim Horton’s, his favourite.
She has even gotten tips from some people but none of them have panned out.
He’s hitch-hiked in the past, and he’s clean cut so perhaps someone gave him a ride.
The Bosma’s have to rely on people who might have seen him because it’s less likely that he will see the dozens of missing person notices, newspaper articles or radio and television messages.
Wendy, John, his two brothers just want him back
“Mike, come home,” Wendy says.
“We love you and miss you and are waiting for you to come and live with us again.”
