Henry Young, known as Sug, was 90 when he was last seen in Jonestown, Mississippi, on July 23, 1990. He lived and worked on the Alcorn Russell farm in Coahoma County and left home during the night in a distinctive dark blue 1976 Ford Maverick with a white top, a yellow driver’s-side fender, and Mississippi plate 1DBP974. Described as 5 feet 5 inches to 5 feet 7 inches tall with graying black hair and brown eyes, he weighed about 120 to 140 pounds.

Witnesses reported seeing Young driving out of Jonestown with a 17-year-old female acquaintance. The teen allegedly told investigators she and a 15-year-old male had robbed Young and that he had been beaten to death on August 1. Both teens were arrested but later released after authorities said there was insufficient physical evidence and no body had been recovered. The Maverick was found on August 24, 1990, near Friars Point about 50 yards from the Mississippi River; investigators later recovered Young’s shoes, car keys, and pants nearby. Searches, including a helicopter and dragging Hopson Bayou, did not locate him and his case remains open and unresolved.

If anyone knew Henry Young or has information about his movements in late July 1990, please come forward.
