Any updates?

This is the last thing I saw on the news. They did take some molds of tire tracks found near where he went missing and the blood is being tested. Zion military veteran Cory Rhinehart missing since Friday Bumping for Cory.

Blood on the walls is NOT a good sign. Bloodstains are classified into three basic types: passive stains, transfer stains and projected or impact stains. Passive stains include drops, flows and pools, and typically result from gravity acting on an injured body. Transfer stains result from objects coming into contact with existing bloodstains and leaving wipes, swipes or pattern transfers behind (ie: a bloody shoe print or a smear from a body being dragged). Impact stains (such as spatter on walls) result from blood projecting through the air and are usually seen as spatter, but may also include gushes, splashes and arterial spurts. I'm sure LE has already analyzed it but if the blood on the wall included an arterial spurt, whoever shed the blood is likely not alive.

I tend to agree with you, but has LE changed his status from "endangered"? (which is how I believe it was characterized in the beginning) They may not even if there was enough blood to conclude that it is likely that he is no longer alive. Just wondering if anyone heard anything different?

I live in Chicago and nothing has changed as far as his status.

You’re right, that’s so close

You’re right, that’s so close

In late January a high school student jumped off the pier there to try and rescue a friend who had fallen in the water accidentally. The friend made it out but the body of the teen that tried to save him went under and was not found. They are speculating in Chicago MSM that the body is that of the missing teen.

Any updates on who they found in the water?

No, due to the serious decomp, they are going to have to compare the remains to dental records. Forensic Odontology can take a week or two once requested. If there are no recent dental records, then they will have to do DNA, which unlike on TV, takes at a minimum six to eight weeks. Based on the location though and the level of decomposition of the body, locals believe it is the young high school student that jumped into the water in January at that location to try and save a friend who fell in. Given the cold temperatures, the condition of the body would not match Cory who only went missing a couple of weeks ago.

Bumped for Cory

Would think we should be finding, pretty soon, out whose blood was found.
