Douglas Brucks was 41 when he disappeared from Jefferson City, Missouri, in April 1995. On the evening of April 10 his mother dropped him at the Country Kitchen restaurant to meet an unknown person. He was last seen by family there wearing a tan vest, black turtleneck, jeans with a hole in the knee, tennis shoes and wire-rimmed glasses. The next day he called his mother to say he was at the lake and that someone would be giving him a ride home; he never showed up to drive his mother and her friend to St. Louis.

At the time of his disappearance he had a $5,000 insurance check; that check was later cashed in Columbia by a person known to law enforcement whose identity has not been released. Authorities suspect foul play. Douglas had struggled with addiction for about a decade before he vanished, and his sister has suggested someone he met during treatment might be connected. The Jefferson City Police Department lists the case as an active investigation.

Did anyone know Douglas in Jefferson City or Columbia in April 1995 who can shed light on his movements that week?
