Police Sketch of Man With Extremely Unusual Traits is Later Seen in Crowd Photo
So I remember hearing about this case (probably through some "disturbing unsolved cases" video) about this police case that went cold. If I recall correctly, several people had described a man with seemingly impossible features to the police – I cannot remember a single detail about the actual crimes, or general context of the case.
The police drew up a sketch of the suspect, depicting traits that would be akin to someone suffering from neurofibromatosis, with what appeared to be skin overgrowths and disproportionate traits. Surprisingly, the case went cold, and even with such distinctive features, nothing came of it.
The chilling part that stuck with me is that, at some point later, a picture surfaced of some type of event, depicting a crowd, and if you look closely, among the bystanders, you can just about make out through the grainy black-and-white (or at least I think it was, it was definitely low quality) picture a man who shockingly fit the sketch. Could it have been a photo artifact, or actually the culprit, hiding in plain sight?
I’m aware this sounds made-up, urban legendesque, and it very well might be, but I’d just like to be able to find the sketch and picture again. Does that ring a bell to anyone?
