Russell Jay Chase was 20 when he was last heard from on January 18, 1989, in Marietta, Georgia. He is described as a white male about five feet nine inches tall, 140 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. Family members reported that his disappearance was out of character.

A week after Russell’s last contact, on January 25, 1989, Fulton County law enforcement recovered his vehicle but not Russell himself. The car’s recovery is the last major public development noted; the Marietta Police Department handled the investigation and key details about what happened have not been resolved.

The circumstances of his disappearance remain unknown and his whereabouts are still unaccounted for. If anyone knew Russell, saw his vehicle in late January 1989, or has information that might help, please come forward.
