- Details of Disappearance:
- Thornton vanished from his home in Milpitas, California on March 7, 2019. He was last seen at 11:30 a.m. walking away from his house.
He’d been out of work for five years and living on savings. The day he disappeared, his wife told him their bank account was overdrawn – the day *after* their 15th wedding anniversary. After talking about it, his wife left for a short time. When she came back, Thornton was gone. He’d even laid out his pajamas and done the dishes, like normal.
His wife thought he’d gone for a hike (he loved hiking), but he never came back. His phone is off, and he didn’t leave any note. This is very unusual for him, and because he needs medication, police are worried about him. The case is still a mystery.
