Joe Churchville Ricks III, 35, was last seen October 6, 2021, in Oakland, California. They were seen near Vicente Way around 11:30 a.m., possibly headed toward San Francisco with plans to use the Bay Area Rapid Transit system. At the time of disappearance Ricks was wearing a brown jacket, black jeans and black boots and may have been carrying a large black backpack.

Ricks used they/them pronouns and was known by names including Jayce and CSPShala. Reports say they had been dealing with mental health issues. Authorities later suspected Ricks may have jumped from the Golden Gate Bridge, but their body has never been recovered and the circumstances remain unresolved.

Does anyone have information about Ricks’ movements on October 6, 2021, or recall seeing them near BART or the Golden Gate Bridge that day?
