Thomas Elroid Spiers, 40, of St. Martin, Mississippi, disappeared on August 25, 1994, after telling his parents the night before that he had seen something he shouldn’t have seen. He left his parents’ home on Goffville Road intending to walk back to his house on Ruth Street and was never heard from again.

When he failed to show for oyster harvesting with his father the next day, family members found his car parked with a rented videotape on the roof and the driver’s door open. His wallet and checkbook were on the passenger seat. His house had lights on, the television playing, and all personal items, including keys and daily medication, remained behind. Spiers had obsessive-compulsive disorder and depended on daily medication, so leaving without warning was out of character.

Investigations and searches produced no significant leads and foul play is suspected. Does anyone who lived in St. Martin in 1994 remember Thomas or noticed anything unusual around August 24–25 that could help this cold case?
