Details of Disappearance:
Cole disappeared in Severna Park, Maryland, in the early hours of April 11, 1994. He’d been out with his brother, visiting a couple of restaurants, and was last seen leaving a bar around 1:30 AM. He was drunk and walking home, a short distance away. He never made it.

His family reported him missing the next day after searching for him. Someone claimed to have seen him a month later, but that wasn’t confirmed. Cole left behind everything – his belongings, money, and even his last paycheck. He was happy and in a stable relationship, so his family doesn’t believe he ran away.

Because Cole was adopted, finding his biological family for DNA comparison took a long time, hindering the investigation. Sadly, the case remains unsolved.
