Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP80958)
Jurgen Stockburger, a 39-year-old German national, was last seen on April 22, 1991, in San Diego, California. Before his disappearance, Stockburger was believed to have been preparing for a return trip to Germany, but he never arrived and has not been heard from since. His case was added to the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs) in 2021, over two decades after he went missing.

Described as 5'8" to 5'9" tall and weighing around 190 pounds, Stockburger had brown and gray hair and distinctive gray-blue eyes. He also had two noticeable vaccination scars on his left arm and a healed surgical scar on his lower right abdomen. The circumstances of his disappearance remain unclear, and despite efforts, no new leads have surfaced in recent years. His case remains unsolved, and authorities encourage anyone with information to come forward.
