William DiSilvestro, 28, was last seen on the night of February 7–8, 2011 in Hamilton, Ohio. A family member dropped him at a friend’s house in Rossville that evening; at about 2:30 a.m. he tried twice to reach his mother and grandmother by phone but left no voicemail. He then reportedly left the friend’s home on foot and vanished into cold winter weather without his seizure medication, money or his cell phone (the phone was later found and returned to the family).

Search efforts concentrated on Millikin Woods, a forested route he might have taken on the two-mile walk toward his grandmother’s house, but no trace of him or his belongings was found. He was described as 6 feet 2 inches, 180 pounds, with black hair, brown eyes and numerous distinctive tattoos, including Juggulo on the back of his neck and a Hatchetman logo on the right side of his neck.

Tips over the years, including one from an inmate who said his remains were in a canal, produced no confirmed leads. The Butler County Sheriff’s Office lists the case as an active cold case and his mother continues to advocate for answers. Did anyone in Hamilton or Rossville see William that night or recall where he might have been headed?
