Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP136470)
On September 17, 2023, 36-year-old John Goza was last seen leaving the 300 block of North Carolina Street in Houston, Texas. Since that date, there has been no contact from him, and his current whereabouts remain unknown.

The Houston Police Department has been actively investigating Goza's disappearance. Despite their efforts, there have been no significant leads or developments reported to the public. Authorities have urged anyone with information regarding Goza's location to contact the Houston Police Department Missing Persons Division at (832) 394-1840.

As of January 19, 2025, Goza's case remains unsolved. His name does not appear in the Texas Department of Public Safety's Missing Persons Clearinghouse Online Bulletin, which serves as a central repository for information and pictures of missing and unidentified persons in Texas.

The lack of new information has been challenging for both investigators and Goza's family. The Houston Police Department continues to seek assistance from the public, emphasizing that even the smallest detail could be crucial in locating Goza and providing answers to his loved ones.
