Thomas Patrick McLaughlin, 52, was last seen May 29, 2005, after moving into a board and care facility in San Diego just six days earlier. On the day he disappeared he left without telling staff where he was going. Family reported a recent period of erratic behavior and an intense focus on religious and apocalyptic themes.

A blue 2003 Hyundai Santa Fe registered to McLaughlin was towed June 3, 2005, from a spot in northern San Diego County where it had been parked for three days. Investigators found folded blankets and towels and a large supply of toilet paper inside. McLaughlin’s wallet and keys were missing and there was a strong odor of smoke in the vehicle though no ash or cigarette debris. Searches by the San Diego Police Department and Fire Department produced no leads; the case is classified as endangered missing because of his bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.

If anyone saw Thomas or his Hyundai Santa Fe around late May or early June 2005, can you share what you remember?
