Jon Barrett, 68, of Pocatello, Idaho, vanished in early November 2008 under circumstances that have never been resolved. Barrett, diabetic and in poor health, was last seen by neighbors on the evening of November 9, 2008. When police checked his home after he was reported missing they found the front door open, the lights and TV on, and his dogs left behind — all described as out of character for him.

Barrett’s light green Dodge Caravan went missing with him but turned up at the house shortly after the report; investigators never determined who returned it. A friend, Randall Toone, was the last person known to have seen Barrett and used Barrett’s debit card a few days later for a small clothing purchase; Toone said he had permission, and he was later convicted on unrelated credit card fraud charges, but he was not publicly named a suspect in the disappearance. Extensive searches produced no substantive clues and the case remains unsolved.

Does anyone who knew Jon, his routines, or his contacts in November 2008 have information that could help reopen this investigation?
