Hi all,

The initial location provided (Moore's Mill) was incorrect/inaccurate. It has since been corrected to near Hwy 166.

greymetal- I believe that the agency that worked the case is Atlanta Police not Fulton Police.
 
Tami - Thanks for that update! Is there anything else major you see in the medical report that might be in correct? Thank you so much again!

Coonhound - You are absolutely right! My honest mistake. I've had about three hours sleep and am typing fast to make sure I get everyone updated. That means slippy fingers, and some mistakes :blushing:. Thanks for clearing it up! It will make sense to everyone now :D

No problem- just didn't want you to spin your tires with the wrong agency.

It's funny you say that, I feel like our tires are all spinning in all the wrong direction! So glad we have helpful people around to clear up inaccuracies that are out there! :)
 
I think you're right about the grim reaper. I printed out the photo and put it on a light box, which highlighted the lines that were thicker and thinner. I traced over the ones that seemed to belong to the old photo underneath and it definitely looks like Death with a scythe and a skull face.

The other interesting thing I noticed is that down by the dragon's tail there's a series of whitish marks (circled with an arrow pointing at them). I questioned earlier whether he had a scar there that wasn't mentioned, but it appears like it could be lettering that was tattooed over to match his skin. Can't begin to make it out though.


I was just goggling images for "Angle of Death" and some are really close to what you highlighted. Skulls, bone wings, scythe and some even include Dragons. That with the meteorite on the hand may have to do with a biblical, apocalyptic theme.

That flaming meteor looks like the logo for the Miami Heat.

I think these boys and men should be checked. The autopsy report said the deceased had black hair and some of these don't, but the ones who don't were young and hair color may have changed since then.

Jarrod Green- missing since 9/30/94 from Arkansas
http://www.charleyproject.org/cases/g/green_jarrod.html
https://www.findthemissing.org/en/cases/12139/20/

Here's what stands out to me:
Nose looks the same- hair is similar
Height is the same
From his NAMUS entry:
Tattoo on left shoulder. Tattoo on abdomen. Unknown location of a tattoo of a tasmanian devil with the initials of "S.H." under it.

Our UID has a left shoulder tattoo and one on his abdomen. Perhaps Tasmanian devil was covered up by the globe somewhere but initials stayed.....

Thoughts?
 
I don't really follow this JD but I ran accross Aaron Pate and it reminded me of him.

https://iowacoldcases.org/case-summaries/aaron-pate/

https://www.findthemissing.org/en/cases/6499/1/

There is a 3 year gap to get the tattoos so I didn't think it was significant that Aaron didn't have any noted.

Height is close (2")
Age is OK (Aaron would have been about 20)
The weight is off, obviously, but the overall build seems similar.

Fingerprints, Dentals, and DNA are all mismatched between the two in Namus so there shouldn't be any kind of automatic rule out.
 
Tim Guy could fit this JD:
http://www.charleyproject.org/cases/g/guy_timothy.html
https://www.findthemissing.org/en/cases/528/0/
Tim went missing from GA in 1987 under strange circumstances. It's possible he became homeless, he had a learning disability. Atlanta is about an hour from where he went missing. Neither Tim or the UP have DNA on file but there is a resemblance and the height matches. Tim isn't listed with any tattoos but there was time to acquire them.
My thoughts on the tattoo-the UP could have been a Star Trek fan. The top of the dragon where the triangle sticks up reminds me of the Klingon symbol, and the Virgo was the name of a ship in the original series. Also, the unknown tattoo with unknown language could have been Klingon. There was also a Star Trek exhibit that was part of another event in Atlanta GA in 1995, only I'm not sure of the exact date. Yes, I am a closet Trekkie.
 
Any new info? Bumping for this John Doe!
