La historia de un sello

La mañana del 7 de octubre de 2023 llegaba al puerto de Barcelona el buque auxiliar Las Palmas (A-52) de la Armada española, a pesar de los bancos de niebla su esquema de color como buque antártico permitió distinguirlo de lejos. Momentos antes de cruzar la bocana norte del puerto. A su encuentro salió el práctico de guardia a bordo de la lancha Antares y el remolcador Willy T se dispuso para…

r/gratefuldoe | The Man of Somiedo: A psychically disabled and malformed man presumably locked away from the world until his death.

u/moondog151:

[...] On January 9, 2015, two hikers called the police after discovering a dead body outside the town of Puerto de Somiedo, Spain. The body was found wrapped in a blanket next to a narrow creek. Police unwrapped the body from the blanket and discovered that the decedent was naked and missing one leg which was determined to be the result of scavenging from animals. The decedent was 135 cm tall, had a beard, was 45-60 years of age, weighed 35 kg and was skinny with his ribs prominent against the skin.

The decedent had disproportionately long limbs and fingers and a disproportionately small head while his chest protruded outward indicating that he suffered from Pectus carinatum, his back was also hunched indicating that he suffered from Kyphosis. He also suffered from severe cataracts. An autopsy was performed on the man which revealed that despite his prominent ribs he had, in fact, received adequate nutrition and that his beard and facial hair were well shaved and his skin taken care of indicating that he was properly cared for in life. His DNA was sequenced which showed that the decedent was lacking in Marfan and suffered from a mild case of Cockayne syndrome. As sufferers of the decedent's various conditions also suffer from intellectual disabilities and are unable to live on their own. Since the decedent had good hygiene and no signs of malnutrition police reasoned that he likely had at least one caretaker in his life. No signs of violence were found on his body and a medical examiner ruled that the decedent's cause of death was a heart attack. As the condition is rare and due to his physical malformations police were initially confident that he'd be quickly identified. Police went to Puerto de Somiedo, the closest human settlement to the location the decedent was found. Unfortunately, none of the residents knew the man prompting the police to expand their search to the neighbouring towns. Despite the expanded search nobody recognized the decedent or anyone with his features. No one matching his description appeared in local hospital records and assisted living facilities had no residents matching his description. Police searched birth records of the entire municipality and Asturias province as well as created a list of women who could've worked as rural midwives around the time the decedent had been born. Due to a lack of results from any of these efforts, the police came to the conclusion that the decedent was either not a local or that his family kept his birth and existence a secret since at the time of the decedent's birth Spain would've been under the conservative dictatorship of Francisco Franco. Police believed that if he was hidden from society his body was placed where it was discovered to make sure the decedent was found and buried properly. Spanish authorities admit that this theory is just speculation based on a lack of leads on their part. Police examined the blanket the decedent was wrapped in and discovered that the blanket was manufactured in the 1950s in that only two stores in Spain produced this blanket located in Gijón and Burgos. Police visited both stores but their receipts and purchase records were not preserved. Police lastly submitted the decedent's DNA to every DNA database in Europe but no matches turned up. No further leads have surfaced and the decedent was buried in a local cemetery with a blank tombstone.
