New image for Mercer Island Unidentified and ID on Clallam County Case

I finished this postmortem image for a Mercer Island PD case this week. It’s an Asian male in his 60s that washed ashore on the south end of Mercer Island WA in 2018. They’ve been unable to ID him since then by other means, so are trying to see if releasing a forensic image will […]

Echo Bay John Doe Identified

I did a 2D reconstruction from skeletal remains on this case in May for Snohomish County Medical Examiner’s Office. This man was recently IDed through DNA as a victim from British Columbia.
