We explore one of the world’s most thorough indexes of Doe cases: Unidentified Wiki--and speak with its creator, who hadn’t finished high school when he began to compile information on both the most well-known and the most obscure cases of the unidentified in the United States and beyond. Armchair detectives and experts alike use his site to trade information and seek the identities of John and Jane Does past and present, hoping to match a missing persons case to a listing carefully gathered into the Encyclopedia of the Unidentified.
