Marten Robert Wenzel was 29 and living in Edmonton, Alberta, when he stopped contacting his family after August 10, 2004. He had been in the habit of checking in at least once a month, so the abrupt silence was out of character and remains unexplained. Marten is Indigenous, about 6 feet 2 inches tall, roughly 150 pounds, with black hair, brown eyes and wore glasses.

Very little is publicly known about his last movements or the circumstances of that August day. The Edmonton Police Service has the open missing person file and the family continues to hope someone will come forward with a detail that could clarify what happened.

If anyone has information about Marten’s whereabouts in August 2004 or remembers seeing him in Edmonton around that time, please share what you know.
