John Dubose, 44, was last seen on Christmas Day 2021 in Bishopville, South Carolina. He was walking on Highway 15 toward Interstate 20 in Lee County and may have been trying to reach Sumter, a place he sometimes visited by catching rides. John has a brain injury and diminished mental capacity and has wandered from home before.

That day he was wearing a white t-shirt with red lettering and dark-colored pants. He is described as a white male, brown hair, brown eyes, 5 feet 9 inches and about 180 pounds, with a noticeable scar on his face. The Lee County Sheriff’s Department was notified and entered his information into NamUs in November 2022; the case remains open.

If anyone saw John on or after December 25, 2021, or has information about his movements along Highway 15, please contact the Lee County Sheriff’s Department.
