- Distinguishing Characteristics:
- Distinguishing Characteristics Caucasian male. Gray hair, brown eyes. Carter was in good physical shape at the time of his disappearance. He may use the last name Hyde.
- Details of Disappearance:
- Carter disappeared on June 28, 2010, after telling his wife he was going hiking near Castaic Lake in California. He left a note. His car was found a few days later, but he wasn’t. Police searched the area but couldn’t find him.
His wife thinks he might have had a mental illness like Alzheimer’s because his behavior changed a lot before he disappeared – he became withdrawn and mean. He had a difficult childhood; his father died when he was young, his mother was ill, and he grew up in an orphanage. As an adult, he held various jobs and enjoyed hiking and writing.
Even though it’s been a long time, and his wife thinks he’s likely dead (especially since he never used their credit cards), the mystery of what happened to Carter remains unsolved.
