Reference #18.d1d3dead.1529527066.5200b01 That's what your link shows for me. I must be blocked because I'm in Europe. No worries I've found it from a different source link. For anyone else who can't see it it's this: Quote U.S. Marshal for Northern Ohio Peter J. Elliott once compared attempts to find the true identity of Joseph Newtown Chandler III to chasing a ghost. On June 21 at 1 p.m., Elliott along with Eastlake Police Chief Larry Reik among others will announce the solving of one of Northeast Ohio’s “biggest and most complex mysteries.” http://www.news-herald.com/general-news/20180620/who-was-joseph-newton-chandler-iii-authorities-will-reveal-the-true-identity-of-the-eastlake-man 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skulduggery Posted June 20, 2018 Author #3 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Hmmm. Weird. On the road right now but will investigate what's wrong soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skulduggery Posted June 20, 2018 Author #6 Share Posted June 20, 2018 I remember this case, albeit probably from seeing it on old YouTube list videos from way back. I accidentally stumbled on this earlier while looking up a completely unrelated news story. Consider me interested. Although, I'm sure it's nothing as sensational as him being an infamous serial killer or D.B. Cooper. Still, though, pretty neat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skulduggery Posted June 21, 2018 Author #7 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Welp. He was a World War II veteran who had gone missing. https://patch.com/ohio/cleveland/who-was-man-claiming-be-joseph-newton-chandler-iii 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The U.S. Marshals Service is now seeking the public help to answer that question. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bivy Posted June 22, 2018 #10 Share Posted June 22, 2018 The guy who went to a store in another state then turned around when he couldn't find a parking space. I remember watching or reading something about that recently. This is weird stuff. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pallidin Posted June 24, 2018 #12 Share Posted June 24, 2018 I'm not fully understanding this. A man assumes the identity of someone deceased to erase his own public identity. Ok, that I get. He did that to "hide something" from the public and authorities about his past. Ok, I get that. What I don't get is why the elevated interest. Sure, he could have murdered someone or did some other felony that led him to change identities... but, this has happened a lot over the years with many other people for many reasons. So why is this "special"? Zodiac? Ok, but I don't see a strong enough connection. Why is this "special ?" I guess is my question. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, definitely not the Zodiac. It was just a curiosity and it at some point had been mentioned and then it snowballed, although it never achieved a lot of attention. Still, some attention in places. Also, glad someone figured it out. It still raises a few questions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
