EDIT:
UPDATE ON THE UPDATE:
In the last day or so, other people have come forward saying they recognize MH. Currently, CCSO is waiting to confirm his identity through DNA from his mother and/or sister. All we can do now is wait. The good news is, we can all take a break on looking into this. I believe we will have a definitive update from CCSO in the coming days. Hang tight and thank you to everyone who spread the word and shared!

After lots of coordinating, sharing, and hard work from people dedicated to MHβs case, we were able to raise $5,000 to fund an analysis of his DNA. Scientists at Othram are currently trying to find relatives of MH through forensic genealogy, while working on many more unsolved mysteries.
Within the last week, Othram provided an update that verifies key information in the case. MH had mentioned to other hikers that he βwas from Baton Rouge, Louisiana.β However, whether that meant he was born there, raised t
