Michael Stafford, 29 and from New Rochelle, went missing in Poughkeepsie in the spring of 2015 after an evening along the Hudson River. On April 2, Stafford was reportedly with others at the riverbank and was said to have fallen into the water. He was last seen wearing a burgundy hoodie, jeans, and gray sneakers.

Stafford is described as a Black male, 6 feet 2 inches to 6 feet 3 inches tall, 170 to 190 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. The Poughkeepsie Police Department launched a search that night but reportedly called it off the next day, saying it lacked a boat for a water search. Stafford’s family has criticized the brief initial response and remains without answers about what happened or whether he entered the river.

If anyone witnessed the April 2 evening along the Hudson or has information about Michael’s movements that night, please share what is known.
