James Elmer Hughes, 45, and his twin brother Cleston vanished from Batesville, Arkansas, in late summer 2020. The last known contact with James was August 1, 2020; a reporting party says their final conversation with the brothers was in August, when the men mentioned plans to travel to Colorado for a short time and then return to the Batesville area. After that, communication stopped and they were not seen or heard from.

A formal report was filed with the Independence County Sheriff’s Office on December 17, 2020, and a public case followed a week later. James is described as a white male with brown hair and brown eyes, 5 feet 4 inches tall and about 130 pounds. There is no publicly released evidence that they arrived in Colorado, and the circumstances of their disappearance remain unclear.

Does anyone have information about their travel plans, sightings, or locations in August 2020 that could help the investigation?
