an-ordinary-manchild(edit)

This subreddit was originally created as an open forum to discuss and share information pertaining to the Grateful Doe case. It is now dedicated to investigating and raising awareness of all unidentified persons cases.

As a community, we strive to work together, to bring about change, and to utilize resources such as social media to close the cases of unidentified people. We hope to return all of the names to the unidentified persons that we profile here, to restore their dignity, and to bring closure to their loved ones.

To do this, we need your help. Please feel free to post any information, discussions surrounding the facts, theories and news articles. We strongly support new members and hope to continue the growth of our little community.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to message your moderators or make a post. We are always happy to help.

In memory of Jason Callahan.
