It's good to know his wrists were broken. In principle a good identifier if they find his skeleton. If his body was "complete" they must have taken X-rays to see it. I'm not sure this is common procedure. I wonder why your first thoughts are that the broken wrists were the effect of an attack or abuse. It could have occurred because of a fall or accident.
Although I like your idea of him being a guy like you lay out (a lover, helping people, adventure seeking etc. except from the trauma) but how did you come to that idea?
Hello,
Yes, Ferren's broken wrists could have come from a fall or accident. I honestly was not thinking of that possibility when I write the post. But it is likely. The broken wrists will be a great identifier if his skeletal remains are found like you said.
My ideas about Ferren came from very general information about him wanting to go off and see the world and find adventure. Correct, this reason did not have to be from a traumatic experience.
Who actually raised Farren when he was growing up? I am not sure, but I don't think it was his biological parents? The answer is probably in this thread, but being pressed for time, I can't look for it right now.
There is confusion as to Farren's last communication being in either April 1980 up to June of 1980 when he was dropped off at a campsite? Something is wrong here. Those month lapses could make a difference,
Also want to compliment everyone for keeping Ferren's case alive in the hope that he is found someday!
