Brandon Kole Matthews, 33, was last seen around April 1, 2021, in Port Orchard, Washington. He was living in a wooded encampment a few miles from his family’s home and was known to be experiencing homelessness. At disappearance he was about 6 feet tall, weighed 235 to 250 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. He did not own a vehicle or a phone.

Brandon’s family had regular contact with him and became alarmed when they suddenly could not reach him. When they checked his camp, all of his personal belongings remained there — a departure that family members say was highly uncharacteristic. The Port Orchard Police Department was notified and a report was filed on April 19, 2021. Multiple searches of the nearby woods turned up no sign of him.

The case remains open and unresolved, with no confirmed sightings or communications since he was last seen. Does anyone who knew Brandon, frequented that encampment, or was in the area in early April 2021 have information that could help locate him?
