Lonnie Michael Rodriguez, 31, vanished after being released from jail in Tampa, Florida, on April 14, 1998. On the day he was freed he called his mother from near the 1200 block of Orient Road; no further contact was reported after that call. He was a resident of Iberville Parish, Louisiana, at the time.

At disappearance he was described as between 5 feet 7 inches and 5 feet 8 inches, 125–140 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. Distinguishing marks include a tattoo of a cross between his left thumb and index finger and a scar on the palm of his right hand. The local sheriff’s office in Louisiana is handling the investigation; despite years of work no significant leads have been reported and the case remains unsolved.

Anyone who knew Lonnie, saw him in the Tampa area in April 1998, or has information about his movements after that phone call is asked to come forward.
