Chad R. McGhee, a 36-year-old father from Dugger, Indiana, was last seen at his parents’ home on August 17, 2013. He vanished sometime during the night and left all of his personal belongings behind — wallet, identification, and phone — which alarmed family and investigators because it suggested he did not plan a long absence. He is described as a white male, 6 feet tall, about 180 pounds, with brown hair, green eyes, a full sleeve tattoo on his right arm and a barbed-wire tattoo around his upper left arm. He was thought to have been wearing a black t-shirt, blue jeans or black pants, a black baseball cap, and sunglasses.

The Sullivan County Sheriff’s Office opened the investigation but struggled with a lack of evidence and leads. Although McGhee had a warrant for his arrest, investigators did not believe he was fleeing because he left his resources at home. His family received disturbing phone calls after he disappeared, and his father searched for him the night before he was reported missing. The case has gone cold, his family later filed to have him declared legally deceased to help his children, and no suspects have been publicly named.

Did anyone in the Dugger area have contact with Chad around August 17, 2013, or see him leave his parents’ house that night?
