Identified! OH - Cleveland, Male 208UMOH, 18-60, May'08 - Deland Sawyer

one other thing, they specified only that the body had been there for years. given the clothing the deceased was wearing, you'd think they could narrow it down a bit. obviously if the guy was wearing something from Tommy Hilfiger, they should be able to date that and say it was after xxxx year. even the Cleveland Browns sweatshirt was probably an official trademark of the team so that too might shed some light on who was authorized to print out the logos and who might have put them on the market.

Not sure where "young female" came from because it wasn't in the links above but this is a male and still unidentified.

The two different left foot shoes found are a bit strange.

I don't understand the dentals. Namus says that they didn't find the mandible but in the chart they list fillings and antemortem losses for the lower jaw as well.

that's odd. then namus link now says "Permission Error - Case Access Denied" and there is no UID showing up in Namus from May 2008 from Ohio. I wonder if he was identified?

Doe link still shows the composite.

this UID is no longer in Namus. my suggested match, Willie C. Stanberry is still in Namus so it is not likely him.
