The John Doe is believed to have been between 16 and 20 years of age. Height, weight, hair color and eye color are unknown.

Thoughts? Lukeville may sound familiar to our forum since it is same town our forum-exclusive fugitive Evodio Manilla-Cabrera is wanted out of. Manilla-Cabrera led an illegal smuggling operation gone awry that resulted in the deaths of 14 migrants who had to trudge through the desert without food or water. This tragedy happened in 2001 Lukeville John Doe wasn't believed to have passed away until 2009 at the earliest, so the two cases themselves can't be related, but it wouldn't surprise me if this case was related to the same overall or same type of smuggling operation.
