Details of Disappearance:

On January 25, 2002, a man named Thompkins vanished while working with a surveying team in the woods near Warm Springs Road in Harris County, Georgia. His coworkers were nearby, but when one looked away for a second, Thompkins was gone. He left his tools behind.

A search found one of his boots and a piece of blue fabric from his pants on a barbed wire fence. His other boot turned up months later, in July. That’s all the evidence they found.

Before he disappeared, his boss said Thompkins seemed odd, but his mom said he acted normal. No one knows what happened to him, and the case is still unsolved. He lived in Ellerslie, Georgia at the time.
