Details of Disappearance:
In the spring of 1999, after graduating college with an economics degree, Mark Scavone went on a Carnival cruise with friends. He was last seen leaving a disco on the ship around 1 a.m. on July 5th, 1999, feeling unwell and saying he was going to the restroom. He never returned to his cabin.

A massive search turned up nothing. While his best friend was initially questioned, he was cleared. Police believe Scavone may have accidentally fallen overboard.

Before the cruise, Scavone worked as a tennis pro and had plans for grad school. The investigation ended in 2000 with no answers, and police don’t suspect foul play, but his disappearance remains a mystery.
