Keith A. J. Johnson was 19 when he left his home in Bel-Ridge, Missouri, in the early morning hours of October 19, 2011, and never returned. A student at Florissant Valley Community College, his family noticed his absence from classes and lost contact after he left the residence. When last seen he wore a black hoodie, a green short-sleeved shirt with a skeleton on the front, blue or black Levi’s jeans, and lime green and black Airmax shoes.

Johnson is described as a Black male with black hair and brown eyes, about 5 feet 9 inches and 160 pounds. He has several tattoos, including RIP BOY on his left arm, Marcie on his neck, FSY on his back, and a clown on his right arm. The phone record timeline is puzzling: the last call from his phone occurred on October 20, 2011, then the device was manually turned off; someone accessed his voicemail between October 21 and 26; and his sister later recalled the phone pinged months after he vanished. The circumstances are limited in detail and the Bel-Ridge Police Department’s investigation remains open.

Did anyone in the area at the time see Keith or notice someone wearing those distinctive shoes and clothing?
