John Tibor Weisz was 29 when he disappeared from King County, Washington. He was last definitively seen on November 18, 1997; he is described as a white male, brown hair, blue eyes, 5 feet 9 inches, about 180 pounds, with a goatee. At the time he went missing he reportedly wore a blue jacket, blue jeans and tennis shoes and had a Bible with him.

Accounts of his last movements conflict. The day before he disappeared he admitted himself to West Seattle Mental Health Hospital but on November 18 declined further treatment and said he planned to visit his mother in Oregon or his father in New York. A mental health professional from the facility dropped him off at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, which is one confirmed sighting. A separate report describes a man matching his description running erratically down Highway 509 in Burien without a coat or shoes; it is unclear whether that sighting was before or after the airport drop-off. There is no evidence he boarded a flight.

The King County Sheriff’s Office opened a missing person investigation after he was reported on November 23, 1997, but leads eventually ran dry and the case went cold. If anyone has information about John’s movements around November 18, 1997, or remembers seeing him near the airport or Highway 509, please come forward.
