I have seen zero news articles that mention this, only Reddit comments. The article linked by OP makes no mention of this.

Probably illegally blind then.

If you can't do the time, then don't do the looking at of the crime

"Do you have a permit for that cane and canine, sir? What's your name?"

"Dusty"

Believe it or not, straight to jail - but he got lost on the way.

Albinism generally causes severe eyesight issues.

u/BouncyDingo_7112 5d ago

Correct. But where is the source for everyone claiming he has albinism?

u/missvh 5d ago

People that know him in his community.

Correct. One of my childhood best friends is albino and is legally blind. He also has a twin brother whose albino and blind, which is apparently a 25% chance as they're not identical. They can read, write, and work certain jobs, but only one of them can drive. They tilt their heads in photos and to read. Very cool dudes.

Makes sense. So white you blind yourself.

It’s not uncommon for people with albinism to be legally blind or have pretty bad vision problems. Plus general light sensitivity because there’s not enough melanin in the eye.

This happened in my area it's all over my feed.

He got lost in the burn zone from the 2020 cuz fire, and I can confirm the landscape is very different from pre fire. https://www.newsnationnow.com/missing/missing-california-hiker-lukas-mcclish-photos/

It's on Reddit so therefore it is true and will soon be codified into history with AI.

u/swerrve 5d ago

It’s likely he asked the reporters to leave that part out. He is definitely vision impaired, I work with someone who is close with him and we heard the local fire station up here start cheering loudly the moment he was found

u/MySonHas2BrokenArms 5d ago

Your right, I can’t find anything to suggest he any sorta blind in any article.

u/polytique 5d ago

I don’t think they can disclose his medical conditions.

u/So_Motarded 5d ago

If he does have albinism, it's very likely that he's blind.
