Krishna Venkatesh, 27, was last seen about 6 PM on October 15, 2014, on the Microsoft campus in Redmond, Washington. Living in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood, he was described as American-born of Indian descent, about 5 feet 8 inches to 5 feet 10 inches tall, with black hair and brown eyes. It is believed he drove his gray 2006 Toyota Corolla to Deception Pass State Park, arriving near 8 PM; the car was later found parked near the south end of the Deception Pass Bridge.

Seattle police and Krishna’s friends searched the area with tracking dogs and ground teams but found no trace of him. No signs of foul play or anything unusual were reported in the vehicle, and police said there was no indication of mental health or substance issues. Friends noted he would not normally disappear without telling anyone, and no note or explanation was found. The discovery of the car at a location known for suicides leaves that possibility open, but other scenarios remain under consideration.

The disappearance remains unsolved and has been kept alive by family, friends and online memorial pages that share memories and photos. If anyone knew Krishna’s movements that night or has information about his whereabouts, please come forward.
