Robert Alexander Easterling, known as Alex or A1, was 30 when he disappeared from Pickens, Mississippi, on April 20, 2022. He is described as White, about 5 feet 9 inches and 160 pounds, with brown hair and hazel or green-hazel eyes. He was last seen wearing a black T-shirt, blue jeans, and military-style or military dress-type boots, and had prominent tattoos including a large cross on his back and inscriptions such as in god we trust on his abdomen, love on his right inner bicep, and pain on his left inner bicep.

According to public missing-person records, his mother dropped him at a friend’s home on Stockyard Road at about 8:15 p.m.; he asked her to text when she got home but never made contact afterward. Phone data placed him at the residence between about 8:15 p.m. and 9:27 p.m., then near gates farther up Stockyard Road with the last ping around 3:21 a.m. The Holmes County Sheriff’s Department and local media issued public appeals, volunteer searchers and K9 teams joined searches, and family members continued to seek answers.

Anyone who knew Alex, saw him that night, or has information about Stockyard Road on April 20, 2022, is asked to contact the Holmes County Sheriff’s Office or Holmes County Crime Stoppers.
