There you go: "Prayer Woman." Taa Daa!
Seriously, though, what is there to distinguish this mysterious gloved guy from Eugene (Jim) Brading? He too was "arrested" near the DalTex entrance, and subsequently released, but DPD did get his name...
Yes, you are right, Mr. Phipps, they both were arrested; however, according to the Willis Family there was about two decades, add a few years in age between them. Note they saw a "young" man...
Also, it's reasonable to believe that if the Willis Family remembers seeing the much younger man's black leather coat, and black gloves, they would have also seen a hat colour if he was actually wearing one like the much older Brading.
