Namus mentiones he was measured at 5'5" and 95lbs.

"Blanche" on right upper arm.

I did a little research and found that 8 ladies named "Blanche" are listed in the Social Security death records from Downey, CA between 1973-1993. Not sure if these are in anyway connected to this gentleman.

Case History

on November 9, 1983 at approximately 17:57.
 
That's odd to wear 34" waist pant for 5'3"-5'7", 90-110 lbs. It has to be small frame or avg height skinny man.

I agree!

To be measured at 5'5" and 95lbs and be wearing 34" pants doesn't jive with me either. By comparison, I was 160-170lbs in High School and wore 34" jeans. I don't know if me being 5'11" would make that drastic of a difference, but again...something doesn't add up there.
 
I was thinking that there may be an error in the Doe Network report. It says "Blanche" on the upper right arm.


On the Namus site there is no report of any "Blanche" tattoo... which incidently was my Great-Grandmothers name. If the Doe Network site is referring to a skin BLANCH....then we're on to something entirely different. (See link)

I wish they had more information about the truck and who the owner was (I am assuming it probably wasn't his truck because, if the truck had license plates it seems that if could be confirmed who the owner was).
 
According to Namus this UID was a transient in the area and the truck driver allowed him to sleep in his vehicle. Like a lot of these cases I feel like either the tattoo or DNA are going to be key.
