Paul Aaron Triplett, known as Bub, was 20 when he was last seen on January 7, 2002, in the vicinity of Alice Lloyd College in Pippa Passes, Kentucky, after dropping off his girlfriend. He was expected to return to Wayland but never arrived. At the time he vanished he was wearing a hunter green thermal shirt, a black leather jacket, light blue jeans, a brown belt and brown Timberland shoes, and he carried a black bag with extra clothing.

Paul is described as 6 feet 2 inches, 150 pounds, with brown hair, green eyes, several tattoos (a bird on his right shoulder blade and a dragon on the inside of his right calf), a triangle-shaped birthmark on the small of his back and a linear scar on his lower abdomen. His truck was found abandoned in the parking garage of Good Samaritan Hospital in Lexington; a helicopter search of the area where he was last seen turned up nothing. By November 2002 investigators suspected foul play, though no arrests have been made.

The family believes Paul was killed and has pursued publicity, including a billboard campaign running through early 2026, to prompt new leads. Does anyone who lived near Pippa Passes or Lexington in January 2002 remember seeing Paul or his truck?
