Frederick Freddy Leo Riggs, 32, of Smithfield, Kentucky, vanished after Christmas on December 26, 1990. He was last seen following the holiday and did not return home; family members reported him missing and the Kentucky State Police opened an investigation. Riggs is described as a white male, 5 feet 6 inches, 180 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes, wearing glasses, a beard and mustache, a ruddy complexion, and scars on his ankle and hip (family could not confirm which side). He was believed to be wearing a gold chain necklace and a watch when last seen, and his vehicle was left behind.

Initial searches in and around Smithfield focused on locations he frequented; family and friends distributed flyers and helped with early efforts. The case remains open with the Kentucky State Police and is listed in the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System. No significant leads or substantiated theories have emerged, and the circumstances of his disappearance remain unknown. If anyone knew Frederick, saw him around Smithfield in late December 1990, or has information that could help, please share it with the Kentucky State Police.
