    Preacher Man and Victoria Jane Doe (2022)

    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.

    DB Cooper (Dan Cooper)

    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.

  3. Guadalupe County Jane Doe (1978) and Baby Wyatt

    Guadalupe County Jane Doe (1978) and Baby Wyatt

    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.

    "Joe" and Cuyahoga County John Doe

    A man named "Joe" tragically met his demise while walking in the Euclid Creek Reservation in South Euclid, Ohio on May 8th, 1981. Accompanied by three other individuals, he, unfortunately, fell off a cliff. Joe, a Caucasian male, possessed brown hair that was described as thin, indicating possible hair loss. His brown eyes contained lighter shades within them, and he sported a beard and mustache. Standing at a height of 5'7" and weighing 146 pounds, he had a slender physical appearance. Among his belongings, Joe was discovered with suntan oil, two bottles of bonnie bell lotion, ultra brite toothpaste, a green toothbrush, two Bic razors, four cleansing wipes, and a plastic vial. These items were found alongside a Lee brand blue denim jacket (size 38 regular). The attire he wore consisted of a plaid flannel shirt in blue, brown, tan, and white, bearing the Grodins Brand. His pants were tan Levi Strauss, and he had on a medium-sized brown vinyl jacket from the L'avion brand. Additionally, he wore a large-sized brown belt by Anne Klein. For footwear, he had orange ankle boots in size 8.5. Regrettably, on July 26, 1981, an individual was observed tragically leaping to their demise from the Detroit-Superior bridge. The specific location of this incident was approximately 100 feet south of Merwin Avenue. Unfortunately, there is limited information available regarding this individual. However, here is what we do know. The person was identified as a Caucasian male, likely aged between 45 and 55. Standing at a height of 5'10" and weighing 143 pounds, he had brown straight hair of considerable length. He possessed a graying brown mustache and beard. Although described as hazel, his eyes appear blue in post-mortem images. It appears that he was missing at least two front teeth, and potentially more towards the back. This suggests a lack of access to dental care for several years, possibly even decades. In terms of attire, he was discovered wearing a single blue quilted jacket from K Mart, which was sized small. He also had on a light blue, green, and beige flannel shirt, along with plaid flannel pants in shades of brown, blue, gray, and white. Notably, he wore mismatched socks, one blue and the other black, with a possibility of a third sock layered beneath the blue one according to NamUs records. Blue Converse shoes were also present, although the size is not specified. Additionally, a white belt is visible in the clothing photographs provided by NamUs.

    Bedgebury Forest Woman and the Baldock Jane Doe

    This episode covers two unidentified women from England– The Bedgebury Forest Woman and the Baldock Jane Doe. The Bedgebury Forest Woman is the name of a woman found in the Bedgebury Forest, which is South of London, on October 23, 1979. She was found in a homemade dress that had been tailored significantly. She was likely between 30 and 35 years old and had brown, straight, shoulder-length hair, and hazel eyes. She was 5'1 and had a thin build. Investigators believe she was a mother and she was unfortunately pregnant at the time of her death. A trial has taken place for her murder, where Harry Pennells was found not guilty. The Baldock Jane Doe, also known as the Girl in the Afghan Coat, was a young woman who was hit by a car on the A507 highway near London on February 18, 1975. She was hitchhiking, trying to get to London. A couple believes her name was Odile Ludic, a French student that stayed with them for six months. This woman was between 7 and 25 years old, was 5'3 to 5'4, and had blonde hair with hazel eyes. If you know who either of these women are, please contact the UK Missing Persons Unit.
