Carl J. Holland Jr., 23, was last seen June 10, 1983, after meeting a friend at her farmhouse on Hamburg Road in Eldorado, Ohio. He was originally from Richmond, Indiana, and his 1973 Chevrolet Impala was found abandoned days later at a truck stop in Lynn, Indiana. Carl’s family did not realize he was missing for about two weeks.

Police describe the disappearance as suspicious and suspect foul play. Investigators have explored a possible link to two local drug-related homicides. A shotgun slug recovered when officers searched the farmhouse where he was last seen has been noted as potentially connected, but no definitive evidence tying that item to Carl’s fate has been reported. Both Ohio and Indiana authorities have conducted investigations and multiple cold case reviews; the case remains open.

Carl’s family, especially his sister, continues to seek answers. If anyone has information about Carl Holland or his Impala from June 1983, Richmond police ask that they come forward.
