Christopher Brent Hutson, 34, was last seen leaving his home on West Chain of Rocks Road in Granite City, Illinois, the evening of April 9, 2009. His fiancée said he appeared confused and disoriented before walking away on foot; he left two usable vehicles and was wearing a black Jack Daniel’s t-shirt with bleach stains, blue jeans, a brown belt and white socks but no shoes. He was close with his parents, and his abrupt departure was out of character.

Phone records show a call from Christopher’s phone to his home at 11:48 p.m.; an employee at The Inn Between Tavern later recalled seeing him there and said he did not drink. He reportedly contacted his father for a ride but left the tavern before his father arrived. His fiancée reported him missing to the Madison County Sheriff’s Department the next day. He was classified as endangered missing because he did not have required medication.

Searches and inquiries by the Madison County Sheriff’s Office did not produce significant leads, and the disappearance remains unresolved. If anyone knew Christopher, his routines, or saw him the night of April 9, please come forward with information.
