Before we start, we'd like to talk about how you can help solve cold cases and help

identify Jane and John Does at DNASOLVES.com.

In August 2014 in Granite County, Montana, a hiker making his way through the Welcome Creek

Wilderness discovered skeletal remains.

Near the remains was various hiking gear, a CVS pharmacy bottle, drama mean tablets, and

the Sheath Knife.

The Granite County Sheriff's Department quickly responded and began an investigation.

The bones are thought to belong to a white male 30-45 years of age who stood about six

feet tall at the time of his death.

Dental records produced no matches and DNA uploaded in FBI's CODIS returned no match.

This year, 2021, the Granite County Sheriff's Office partnered with Authorment Corporated

in hopes to get this man identified, who, until then, is known as Granite County John Doe.

Authorment Incorporated specializes in the recovery, enrichment, and analysis of human

DNA from trace quantities of degraded or contaminated forensic evidence.

At their website, DNASOLVES.com, you'll find a crowdfunding campaign for this case,

and at the time of this recording, a little less than $2,200 is needed to fully fund it.

There are several other cases there that also need the public's help.

These are cases that the law enforcement agency handling them do not have the funds to

perform testing.

If you'd like to be a part of helping solve this mystery, please go to DNASOLVES.com and

choose this or another case to help.
