AZ AZ - Seligman, WhtMale 757UMAZ, 30-40, 'Marlboro' buckle, black boots, May'04

The Yavapai Silent Witness website has this UID up on its site along with a photograph of the belt buckle: http://yavapaisw.com/unidentified-victims/.

The Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office is investigating a homicide (above) which was discovered on May 19, 2004 eleven miles south of Seligman at mile post 55 on Williamson Valley Road. The body was discovered by two men who were surveying the area which was approximately 100 yards off of Williamson Valley Road. The human remains which had been burned was described by the Medical Examiner as a white male with brown hair, 6’2″ to 6’4″, 200 pounds between the age of thirty and forty years old. The victim was wearing blue jeans, black cowboy boots and a Marlboro belt buckle.

Also, since the remains were burned beyond recognition and the victim reconstruction is conceptual, I don't know how much that discounts how unique the nose looks?

Long shot, but I wanted to include it here since the profile has such fuzzy dates and it is a missing person last known to be in Arizona.

Warren Alexander Brindel's mother was unable to get a missing person's case number for him until 1996. He was last heard from in December of 1993, supposedly moved on from Quartzsite, AZ in early 1994, and hasn't been heard from since. He is an alcoholic.

His height and weight seem to be estimated per Doe Network so even though he is listed as shorter and slimmer a decade earlier than this UID was found, I don't know if it is accurate enough or a big enough difference to discount by.

I didn't find him on NamUs.

Also, since the remains were burned beyond recognition and the victim reconstruction is conceptual, I don't know how much that discounts how unique the nose looks?

Even skeletal remains usually give an indication of what the main part of the nose was like. The tip where it's soft tissue is probably an approximation, but the general beakiness is almost certainly correct.

In this particular sketch, it seems like the eyes and nose are drawn with quite a lot of detail but the rest of the face, mouth, and ears are just indicated with lines. I'd guess he was face down and maybe that part of his face was partly intact. (God I hate writing things like that...)

I hadn't noticed before that the UID's sketch looks like he has somewhat protruding upper teeth.
