Jonathan Wayne Edmond Jr was 27 when he was last seen by his mother on May 15, 2014, leaving a residence on Eerie Street in Columbia, South Carolina. Another account places his last known location near Two Notch Road and School House Road in early June 2014. He had recently moved in with a female friend near Farrow Road and Marshall Street.

Jonathan was described as 5 feet 3 inches tall, about 120 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. He was believed to be wearing a t-shirt and blue jeans and carrying a black and white bookbag. His family did not report him missing right away because he sometimes dropped out of sight; he was officially reported on June 15, 2014. He suffered from diabetes, took medication, had hip dysplasia, and had partial finger and toe amputations related to his diabetes.

Columbia Police Department’s Special Victims Unit handled the investigation. Early checks of local hospitals and jails produced no leads. Police initially said there was no sign of foul play but later came to suspect he may have been the victim of foul play. The case remains unsolved.

If anyone knew Jonathan’s movements or saw him in Columbia in May or June 2014, can you share what you remember?
