Clifton Patrick Leonard was 16 when he was last seen in Lakeland, Florida, on August 22, 1983. His father dropped him at Lake Hollingsworth to meet friends; later that evening Clifton was gone. His parents reported him missing two days later. A bedroom search found a removed window screen and a small bag with a bathing suit, a change of clothes, and $20, but he left behind new glasses, school clothes, and his medication Thorazine for schizophrenia.

Friends told investigators Clifton left Lake Hollingsworth in a car driven by an unidentified person. His family says he had experienced emotional breakdowns in the past but had never run away and was looking forward to returning to school. No suspects have been named and the disappearance remains unsolved.

If anyone knew Clifton, had contact with him around August 22, 1983, or has information about who drove him from Lake Hollingsworth, please share what is known.
