looks like a good guess

He's the only one I can find also. The recon is pretty umm.. "un-lifelike" on this one. Did you submit it, Jake479?

Yes, I did. He was ruled out.

I know this is a longshot but could this be Tavish Sutton..he was only three weeks old when he went missing in 1993 bu would have fit the age range of the UID and they look a lot alike to me

New recon of this 13-19yo child in Namus in 2018.

Was "Brooklyn" a high school? Or is this is a sports-team jersey (sorry not from the US so I'm not familiar even with most major teams)

there are no schools with the name "brooklyn" in Detroit, but there is a city in Michigan named Brooklyn. there aren't any NHL teams from Brooklyn either, and the only NHL team with the white, yellow, and black colors are the Penguins in Pittsburgh, PA, and the Bruins in Buffalo, NY. of course, there are multiple amateur hockey leagues across the country.

keep in mind he was found in the Detroit River, which has an international border between Detroit, MI and Windsor, ON. it's possible that he may be Canadian (although I'm guessing he was found on the US side, hence why he's in our systems).

I really thought he was Timothy Johnson. Any new exclusions?

 

[Aurora90]

Could he be Emanuel Polk?

My goodness, a teenage boy unidentified for all this time? I wonder if he was reported missing quite far from where he was found and the report is sitting in a file. How sad. I really hope someone will pick this case up and aggressively work on it.

Could he be Emanuel Polk?

Here's Emanuel's Charley Project link.
I don't think it seems likely, but I also don't think impossible.
