Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP94973) and 6 other sources
Bernado Leconte, a 32-year-old man from Elkridge, Maryland, was last seen on April 7, 2022, in Nottingham, Maryland. His car was discovered abandoned in the same area shortly after his disappearance, raising concerns about his safety. Bernado, described as 5'8" tall and weighing 220 pounds with short black hair, was reported missing by his family when he failed to return home. He also has distinctive tattoos on his neck, which may help in identifying him.

Leconte's disappearance remains under investigation by the Howard County Police Department. They have sought the public’s assistance in locating him but have not yet reported any significant leads. Authorities are particularly focused on finding more information about the events leading up to the abandonment of his vehicle. Despite ongoing efforts, there has been no conclusive evidence regarding his whereabouts, and the case remains unsolved.

As time progresses, the hope is that any potential witnesses or those with knowledge of Bernado’s last known movements will come forward to help bring clarity to his case.
