Paul Rehus was 30 when he went missing after a trip to the East Coast in September 1973. NamUs lists his last contact as September 18, 1973, while the California Department of Justice and The Charley Project give a September 8, 1973 last-seen date; the accounts agree that he traveled from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C. to visit a friend and that he wrote a letter saying he planned to return to Los Angeles on September 20 but never arrived at LAX. Paul was described as White, 5 feet 8 inches, 185 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes and a very muscular build.

He was last reported wearing a multi-colored shirt and beige pants and may have been carrying a briefcase. The case remains unresolved and open with the LAPD, case number 73250492.

Does anyone remember seeing Paul or a muscular man matching that description traveling between Washington, New York, and Los Angeles in September 1973?
