I need independent confirmation on those scars. Was that scar part of the ORIGINAL sketch of John Doe #2? Is this photo of Jose Padilla un-retouched? If so then that scar is VERY STRONG evidence of the link between the two.

P.S. I would like to see better photos of Padilla to see if he has a distinguishing scar on his face.

It is very hard to tell if there are scars in the smaller size photos.....he blew that up hugely. I would say there may be a scar, but I can't tell for sure. I will have to keep searching.

A gangbanger would be very likely to have a scar.

The e-mailer to Junkyard Blog is quoted on that site as having said that the scars are in the originals, and Bryan Preston, the author of Junkyard Blog, claims to have confirmed this by comparing the originals.
