It isn’t the first time we’ve heard of this. First it was a man from Croatia that hid his identity from police. We now know who he is, but what was his real motivation? Now there’s another US man who’s been arrested and he doesn’t want anyone to know who he is, either. 

He was arrested on July 1st for trespassing in a Utah parking garage. He’s very well mannered, has lightly graying hair and a stubbly gray beard. He’s articulate and polite. 

He’s thought to be in his sixties and he’s had a very pleasant characterthe entire three weeks he’s been incarcerated. He says the food is good and he doesn’t even mind the uniform. He gets three squares and even clean clothes every day. 

John Doe Keeps Them Asking 

It wouldn’t be the first time a homeless person tried going to jail to get a warm bed and hot food. Maybe there’s another state that wants this guy, or maybe he’s hiding from someone and wants the protection of the jail. 

Maybe he’s on sex offender registries somewhere, or some other kind of registry. Maybe he’s wanted in another country?  The man has been very guarded about his past and where he came from and he was too smart for the police department’s trick of giving him a prepaid calling card to call home with. He thanked them for the card, but he called nobody. 

The police are completely baffled. They’re asking the Utah public to take a look at him and see if anyone recognizes him. He’s pretty confident that, somehow, nobody will.
