- Details of Disappearance:
- Shepherd disappeared on May 18, 2012, in Brentwood, New York. He’d been in a psychiatric hospital for a month because he needed treatment but didn’t think he was sick and refused medication. While being taken to court to decide if he had to take medicine, he escaped from the hospital van and ran away. He hasn’t been seen since.
Shepherd lived in Port Washington, NY, with his girlfriend and left his car there before disappearing. Police think he might still be nearby. His family sued the hospital that initially admitted him for $5 million, saying they were careless and let him escape. The case is still a mystery.
