Zackery Lee Brewer, known as Zack, was 16 when he was last seen in Nampa, Idaho, on August 22, 2009. Just after midnight he stopped at his mother’s home appearing worried but left without explaining what was troubling him. He was last seen wearing a white shirt, blue jeans and a brown striped jacket with a fur-trimmed hood. Descriptions list him as a white male, blond hair, hazel/green eyes, about 5 feet 9 inches to 5 feet 11 inches and roughly 160–165 pounds; he had scars on his arms and is right-handed. In the months before he vanished Zack had been staying with a family friend, Javier Guillen Aguilar.

Aguilar faced lewd-conduct charges in July 2009 for abuse that reportedly occurred between 2000 and 2005; Zack provided evidence against him. Authorities later issued a material witness warrant for Aguilar in February 2010 when he could not be located to testify. Investigators have said Zack may have initially left of his own accord, but no one has seen or heard from him since that night and there is significant concern for his safety. The Nampa Police Department continues to investigate.

Was anyone in Nampa aware of Zack’s movements or who he was spending time with in August 2009?
