NV NV - Las Vegas, 'John Sandstone Doe', WhtMale 25-45, UP387, in cave, Jun'05

this guy is as good a match as any, Robert Spellman, missing from Los Angeles County on April 13, 2005. was 27 y.o., brown hair, 5'8", 165 lbs, and per his circumstances he "may have traveled to the Las Vegas, Nevada area after his disappearance, but this has not been confirmed. "

time frame is a little shorter than the 3 months + estimated, but he drove a Lexus so he probably had the money for good dentistry.

ETA: DNA

UID has mtDNA on file, Spellman's profile says "Sample submitted - Tests complete". not sure if that means he is a rule-out by default.

You beat me to the post. Everything looks pretty good, but as you said, the timeframe is a bit short. I was also thinking that the cheap polo shirt and wallabees don't look consistent with a guy who drives a Lexus GS400 and a Porsche 911 and wears expensive watches. But of course, that's not a basis for ruling him out.
 
might not be Spellman. Per Charley Project he had two crooked front teeth and had money problems.

I guess driving a fancy car does not mean one really has the money to afford it.

I thought Spellman too, WR. But I think you're right about the DNA...

I think the key to this could be the shirt he was wearing. From what I can tell, it is an Irish manufacturer.
 
I'm curious as to how he was even FOUND? In a cave only accessible by crawling and rocks piled up in front of it. Someone went to a LOT of trouble in an attempt to hide this guy.
 
The coroner and Metro seem to get some enjoyment out of ignoring me so if someone wants to take this over feel free to do so.

I firmly believe that Sandstone Doe is this guy:

Do your own research if you want but you will notice many similarities between the body and the guy who disappeared including the same tooth being decayed. I discovered this in November 2010 and after an initial email exchange neither the coroner nor Metro want to return emails and I don't have the time to run them down. So, there ya go . . .

I don't see anything in the UID's NamUs dental chart to indicate a decayed upper canine tooth (i.e., either #6 or #11), as is described of Tierro. The chart indicates that 6 and 11 are normal unrestored teeth, and nothing in the dental comments.

The UID's DoeNet dental comments indicate a possible root-canal on #3, but the NamUs dental chart doesn't show a root canal. It only mentions a filling in #3 (in addition to fillings in nine other teeth).
 
The only rule out on Nam Us is Kinsey Otto. If I remember correctly, there is at least one other UID found shot to death in Nevada in the process of getting a root canal.
 
Mrs. Perryman. Could you please contact me. James was my very good friend. I am the guy that got James the job in Guam and was on the SAR team with him. I am also the reason that his fire certifications and pay stubs were in the car as he was sending those to me. They were requested by the fire chief.

Sorry to necro such an old post, but out of curiosity I can't find Anthony Terrio listed anywhere.
His entry appears to have been removed from the CharleyProject and the NCMA. Was he found?
 
Bumping up for John Doe. He's still in NamUs so I assume still unidentified. :( I hope one of our beloved DNA companies will be asked to take up this case.
