The Doe Identify Podcast Doe Podcasting

In this episode, we cover two people who were likely homeless at the time of their deaths– Preacher Man and Victoria Jane Doe.

On November 8th 2010, in Tampa, Florida, a homeless man went looking for his fellow homeless friend whom he hadn’t heard from in five to six months. He checked the woods where his friend resided and he made an unfortunate discovery. He found his friend diseased in his camp area and called the police. It’s estimated he had been dead for a few days before his body was found.

The diseased man was known as Mike or Preacher Man to his friends, but no one knew his legal name. He was between 5’5 and 5’9 and was only 90 to 105 pounds, which is very underweight. He was between 50 and 60 years old and had 2 inch long gray hair.

For our second case, on November 11, 2022, there was a fire in Downtown Victoria, in British Columbia, Canada. Although firefighters and police believe the fire was not set on purpose, someone did unfortunately lose their life in it.

Once the flames were extinguished, first responders found a deceased woman. Authorities believe the woman was homeless and used the building as shelter. Unfortunately, the devastation of the fire has made it difficult to identify her by her physical appearance. She could have been between the ages of 20 and 60 years old and was anywhere between 176 and 395 pounds, or 80 to 179 kilograms. She had blue glittery toenail polish on at the time of her death.

Tune into this episode to hear their stories.

Today is a very different episode because we aren’t covering an unidentified victim, but rather, a notorious criminal. Let's talk about DB Cooper.



November 24th, 1971, was the night before Thanksgiving for us in the States. At the Portland International Airport in Oregon, a man purchased a one-way ticket to Seattle-Tacoma Airport for $20 in cash with the name Dan Cooper. The plane was Northwest Orient Airlines flight 305, a 727.



This man was described as a middle-aged white male with a dark complexion. He had dark hair, brown eyes, and tan skin. The report of his height varies between 5’10 and 6’1 depending on the source. He was between 170 and 175 pounds and was wearing either a black or brown suit, a white shirt, brown shoes, black sunglasses, and a black trenchcoat. His luggage consisted of a brown paper bag and a briefcase. He had no accent to the people on the flight, which in the States, often indicates a West Coast accent.



He later hijacked the plane and stole $200,000. He parachuted out of the plane and was never seen again. He is now one of the U.S.'s most notorious criminals.

Hi everyone! Welcome back to the Doe Identify Podcast. This episode is a special one because I have selected four active DNA Doe Project cases. Our previous fundraising episodes have greatly impacted the organizations with all of your support, so I figured we would do another one, this time supporting the DNA Doe Project.

On this episode, I cover the Smith County Jane Doe (1985), the Three Points John Doe (1988), the Pond Jane Doe from the Granite Site, and the Little Lost Seabrook Doe. Each of them has a very different story and vary in information. Please listen to this episode to hear each of them.

TW: This episode covers the cases of a teenager and an infant. No explicit or graphic language is used.



Our first case is about a young girl who was picked up in Perry, Oklahoma with her guitar, her birth certificate, and a coin purse by serial killer Ronald Lamphear. Along with his girlfriend, Diana Geisinger, they rode together until they got to Guadalupe County, New Mexico. This is where her body was found on the side of I-40, Route 74.

She was wearing blue jeans and a blue halter-style vest with jewelry that’s described as Native American in style. She also had dark brown moccasin shoes, which are also a Native American style. The medical examiner describes her as white with curly, (possibly dyed) blonde hair and blue eyes.



Our second case is about a baby that investigators lovingly named Wyatt. On March 26, 2020, at the height of COVID, an infant was found along a water bank in the Melton Hill Lake in Oak Ridge, Tennessee by a fisherman. The baby had only been deceased for 24 hours and he was so young that we only know he was 34-weeks gestational age, which means that he was born very early and didn’t even have a chance to develop past that point. All we really know about him is that he had thick curly hair and was white, and was only found with a black plaid shirt around his head.
