Foreigner needs.... help???
From Farcebook this morning..
Hello. I found this fella near Orussey market in PP this morning. He is american, named Tom Stewart from Ohio or Idaho, sorry dont remember. At least he says it, well, for me he sounds american, but I could not tell which state he is from. He sleeps on the street and seems to be not completely sane. He tries to contact his relatives in the states with no results at all the last week long. His leg is badly infected and he doesnt have any money to buy some meds. I bought him two stripes of Ciprofloxacin 500mg, Im not a doctor but I hope it would work for him. The way he behaves tells me he is confused and probably has some mental issues and Im not sure he will take ABs. And they will have to cut his leg off. He doesn't want to go to US consulate.

There are articles in "Malta Today" as recently as two days ago about a missing man named Tom Stewart who escaped from a mental hospital there. He has diabetes, which I know can cause foot problems.
The article says he's British though, not American. He could have dual citizenship of course.

Here's a link to a FB page discussion of this. I'm not sure how to join the group where Chuck Wow saw it discussed:

Escaped from a mental hospital, ends up in SE Asia.
Sounds like an episode of the A-Team. Any chance this guy is 'Howling-Mad' Murdoch in disguise?

Here are photos of "American Tom Stewart" who is homeless in Phnom Penh:

Fuck, its hard enough to tell he's the same guy from the "official" photos, let alone recognizing he is the same guy after months on the lamb.
A few "similarities" slight bump on right hand side of nose, followed by an old break on all three
One "wonky" eye - but on different sides of the face.
Right ear has flat "top"
Aside from that, he's white, has the same name and is about the right age.

Doesn't look at all like the same guy to me. Even if he has gone bald in 2.5 months, the guy from Malta looks a lot more worn....

Yeah, some striking similarities - a nose, mouth, 2 ears, 2 eyes etc... but the labial folds on the face don't appear the same. So, at first glance it is not the same dude and after a second look, is definitely not the same dude.

The Malta news reports say the missing guy is 6'5," I've asked the FB poster if the guy he saw could have been that tall.
I agree that it's hard to imagine a penniless escaped mental patient making it from Malta to Cambodia, but on the other hand, it's hard to imagine a publicized missing person wandering around Malta for over two months without being found. At 316 sq km, Malta is smaller than Kep province, to put it in perspective.

I don't know.. I took Mrs CW and ChuckyJnr to Kep this weekend and managed to use Rock Royal swimming pool for 3 hours without a single person asking us what we were doing there.. in fact, after 3.5 hours we tried to get their attention and buy something only to be told "no have".. I think you could easiily go native in Kep and no one would see you.gavinmac wrote:And he has mental problems and an infection consistent with untreated diabetes.Chuck Wow wrote:Fuck, its hard enough to tell he's the same guy from the "official" photos, let alone recognizing he is the same guy after months on the lamb.

To really confirm his identity ask an Asian "expert" Yeah they are the same person, then again all white people look the same to us? Just like all Asians and blacks?
