David Clarence Beneteau, 37, disappeared from Phoenix in the spring of 1997 and was last seen May 22 near 31st Avenue and Camelback Road. He was described as a white male, five feet six inches tall, about 155 pounds, with brown, receding hair, a mustache and distinctive round blue eyes. A single teardrop tattoo under his left eye was noted, plus extensive tattoos on both arms: a keyhole, chain, skull and flames on his right arm; both upper arms with images of a woman; and on his left arm a skull, a woman’s face, a peacock, a rose, barbed wire and the phrase ’cry now, smile later.

He sometimes used the surnames Benetean or Beneter and wore size 8.5 shoes. The Phoenix Police Department lists his case; it was formally reported October 24, 2015, and there have been no confirmed sightings or communications since May 22, 1997. Few details are available about why he was in that area or who he might have been with.

Does anyone have memories of David, or information about his movements around 31st Avenue and Camelback Road on May 22, 1997?
