One of my clients reached out to inform me that her brother, Bruce, went missing on May 17, 2022.

His family believes that he is without access to his medication for bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and asthma. This is an obvious concern for them and why it is so important to find Bruce as soon as possible.

Bruce went missing in Waxahachie, Texas, but it is believed that he drove through New Mexico and possibly into California.

His vehicle, a charcoal gray Chevrolet Silverado, was found abandoned in San Bernardino with the keys still inside. It was still running when police found it.

Local authorities have conducted a drone search of the area to see if he left on foot, but there are no signs of him at this time.

He was last seen on Monday, May 16, 2022 wearing a red t-shirt, green gym shorts, and Corona slides.

His family stresses that mental illness is real and that people who are coping with mental illness should be handled with the utmost care. Bruce needs compassion, understanding, and support.

There is essentially zero media coverage for Bruce right now, so let’s do what we do and get this trending on social media to increase the likelihood that someone will spot him so he can be safely reunited with his family.

If you have any information regarding his whereabouts, please contact Waxahachie Police immediately at 469-309-4410.

On Lake Michigan, there is a section of the water where things just go wrong.

Missing persons. Missing ships. Missing planes.

Some believe that simple acts of nature have created these problems, but not everyone is convinced.

Is there something supernatural or out of this world going on at Lake Michigan?

When a family discovered a torso in a cave in Idaho, police were curious.

When a little girl found a hand twelve years later, they were interested.

A team of anthropologists would go on to find the remnants of this dismembered man, and after sifting through nearly 32,000 DNA matches, they found his identity.

Turns out that this victim was a really bad guy. His name was Joseph Henry Loveless—at least, that was one of his names.
