James Conway Liming Jr., 56, of Orange County, Virginia, was last seen on November 10, 2021, in Fredericksburg, Virginia, scrapping metal. He had told family around November 5 that he planned to start a new life and said this might be the last time they would see him. Liming, who sometimes used the initials JC, is described as a white male about 5 feet 5 inches to 5 feet 6 inches tall, with brown hair and brown eyes and a skin graft scar on his left hand.

After he disappeared, Liming stopped attending endocrinology appointments and ceased payments on a rented storage unit. Suspicious bank transactions later showed most activity in the Junction City, Kansas area; he had previously lived in Colorado and Montana. On February 23, 2022, his gold 2005 Ford F250 was in a crash in Albemarle County, Virginia; the driver fled the scene and has not been identified. The Orange County Sheriff’s Office is investigating. If anyone knew James, his movements before November 10, 2021, or has information about the truck crash, please come forward.
