Todd Edward Lucchesi, 28, was last seen May 31, 1999, near Downieville in Sierra County while staying at his family’s summer cabin beside the Yuba River. He was reported missing on June 3 when his brothers returned to find him gone.

Search teams used dogs that tracked Lucchesi’s scent from the cabin to within five feet of the edge of the north fork of the Yuba River; no further sign of him was found. Authorities list the disappearance as suspicious and say he may have fallen into the river, but no conclusive evidence has been recovered.

Despite extensive searches the case remains unsolved and his family continues to seek answers. If anyone was in the Downieville area around May 31, 1999, or has information about Todd’s movements that weekend, please come forward.
