Shawn M. Paolino, 35, was reported missing from Belfair, Washington, after being last seen either on December 31, 2020, or making last known contact on January 7, 2021—accounts differ. He is five feet nine inches, about 155 pounds, with brown hair, brown eyes and a pockmarked face. His father filed the official missing person report on June 1, 2021, by which time no family or friends had seen or heard from him since early January.

Investigators learned Paolino left his last known address on East Blake Road in Belfair. There is a possible sighting or travel to the nearby Bremerton area and unconfirmed information that he may have been with an unidentified woman. The Mason County Sheriff’s Office is handling the investigation, which remains open.

What information might help narrow the window of his last confirmed movements or identify the woman who may have been with him?
