Martin Lee Smirl, 43, was last seen on March 17, 2019, in the Town of Woodbury, New York. A California native living in the Town of Monroe, Orange County, he is described as a white male, 5 feet 11 inches tall, about 255 pounds, with brown hair and hazel eyes. On the day he vanished he is believed to have traveled to the nearby Town of Goshen and may have been wearing female clothing and under the influence of narcotics.

Smirl’s van was later found at a horse farm near Goshen, indicating he did travel between Woodbury and Goshen that day, but there have been no confirmed sightings or contact since. The New York State Police have classified him as an endangered missing person and continue to investigate. Little public progress has been reported and the family remains without answers.

Anyone who knew Martin, saw his van, or has information about his movements on March 17, 2019, is asked to contact the New York State Police.
