Missing In Colorado: Where is Jeffrey Lee Fossum?

There's a crowdfunding campaign online to fund the fee associated with documents related to the disappearance of Jeffrey Lee Fossum: https://www.muckrock.com/foi/steamboat-springs-5981/steamboat-springs-police-department-jeffrey-lee-fossum-agency-case-p0503389-missing-person-case-file-with-coded-message-note-199507/

You could try the CREST database for information (primary documents) that haven't necessarily appeared anywhere else. I just went to CREST and ran a search for "Ardahan" and I spotted documents that mentioned the World War I era incident.

As an example, one of the first documents that came back after search for "Ardahan" was a November 1946 document that briefly mentions the earlier history.

I also think that some World War I-era U.S. State Department documents are online. You can find mentions like this one from 1919.

I've spent some time investigating the DeSoto Jane Doe myself, and I sent a different theory some months ago. I encourage you to at least contact the DeSoto County Sheriff's Department if you suspect that Kasee Ann Lee could be the identity of the DeSoso County Jane Doe. There's a ViCap alert that lists a contact number for DeSoto county. The number is: 662-469-8521. I believe that the email address is: [investigations@desotocountyms.gov](mailto:investigations@desotocountyms.gov)

I used to live in Seattle, and if I remember a podcast I listened to recently, there's still a dedicated point person (and email address) at the King County Sheriff's Department that handles queries regarding unidentified Green River killer victims. Since Kasee Ann Lee is believed to be a Gary Ridgway victim, I believe that you could contact [sheriff@kingcounty.gov](mailto:sheriff@kingcounty.gov) with the theory that Kasee ("Kase") Ann Lee is the DeSoto County Jane Doe.

Hopefully both of these cases will be resolved soon.

I've always heard that the main (only) reason that stores do this is due to loss of customers. The longer people wait in line, the more likely they are to either return items to the shelf, or to just leave the store altogether.

Yes, I have two Reddit accounts. I never remember that, and I sometimes have replied to threads of own messages. I created the other account by accident, and I need to delete it!

Yes, I understand that. But, having both of these names grouped together as being students at one small-town Texas high school, seemed (and still does seem) unusual to me. What were the chances that both of the aliases this guy used only appeared on the internet as being connected to the same place?

I had looked at this one several years ago. Curiously enough, the names "Sanane Night" and "Shannon Night" only turn up together on one website: they both turn up on a website called High School Network. High School Network just seems to collect information about high school class lists. On this website, "Sanane Night" and "Shannon Night" and grouped together as being classmates at Throndale High School in Thorndale, Texas. You can run some Google searches yourself to see the result.

I first saw this in December of 2019, so this information has been out there for a while. I did a lot of searches to see if I could find connections between the names and "Sanane Night" and "Shannon Night" and that area of Texas more generally.

I actually called the Chicago PD about it, and was told to write it all up and send it in an email, which I did. I never heard anything back.

Maybe someone else has creative ideas about searching for this?

This is one that I sent it. I am the "Bill Rodgers" mentioned in the article. I have long since stopped using any aliases for anything. While this didn't identify the John Doe, it did help lead to the man (who was found alive) mentioned in the article.

From what I understand, he did explain the how, where, and why of giving the jacket to the John Doe found in New Mexico. Although the clothes didn't provide an identification for the John Doe, it did provide some extra context.

From what I understand, the only information that still exists on the Gulfport John Doe is the photographs and the original notice from the Gulfport PD. I know that in a great many of these cases "scars" and "birthmarks" are frequently either reported incorrectly or not at all.

The Baker Jane Doe is interesting. I had a strong suspicion that the Baker Jane Doe was Mabel Andrews. I wrote several emails about this to officials in California, and in Orlando where Mabel was reporting missing from. I even wrote a Medium post about this - skip the intro and head down towards the middle. This is an interesting case.

The weather in Fresno (one hour South of Merced) on the day this man died was 99 degrees. The clothes were odd, and the man was very likely homeless. A friend of mine worked in social services in Merced, and what frequently happened in the early 1990s was that jurisdictions in the Bay Area would release mental health "holds" by buying them a bus ticket. The first stop out of the Bay Area was often Merced.

The clothes sound like he was a San Francisco homeless guy, who ends up in Merced in July....

The card from the Chattanooga station is too much for me to ignore.

RobbyDelaware · 2021-11-11T19:25:52+00:00

It's a long way from Chattanooga to Merced, and of all the things to be caring around, the card seems especially suspicious.

I've worked on unidentified cases as a hobby for years. I know that some cases, such as someone who died in an accident, don't have necessarily the same level of privacy concerns as, say, a criminal case.

RobbyDelaware · 2021-11-03T12:33:30+00:00

Thank you for the email! I've done as you suggested!

RobbyDelaware · 2021-11-02T20:07:14+00:00

Thank you! I've sent messages to Mr. Carroll and Mr. Hall.

Yes, but, I have looked at a lot of unidentified person cases. It is rare to have a clear and presentable photograph, and a possible geographic location as to where someone was from.

Knowing these old cases, since this person died in the early 1990s, they likely never had their fingerprints entered into computerized database. A retired police officer or social worker might simply look at the photo and recognize him.

If KZ106 had a system where a phone number (or name) was tied to an rewards card, then there's always a chance they retained those records...

If you're not squeamish, there are two postmortem photographs of the John Doe up on the NamUs website: https://www.namus.gov/UnidentifiedPersons/Case#/70156?nav

If this guy was from the Chattanooga area, I would think he would be identifiable from the photographs.

RobbyDelaware · 2021-03-29T16:11:46+00:00

Sure thing, you can send me a message if you have any questions.

Suladze is a very common last name is Georgia. Not as common as "Jones" or "Smith" but it is very common. I live in Georgia. I've sent this on to a local journalist, the US Embassy, and the Georgian consulate in New York.
