- Details of Disappearance:
- On November 14, 2012, Pate left his job at a Walmart in Owensboro, Kentucky. He went home to Evansville, Indiana, and left around 11:00 PM in his 2004 Ford Escape (a picture is available). The SUV was missing its front grille and had Kentucky license plate 056-KNZ. He was supposed to go to a job interview in Virginia on November 16th but never showed up. His roommate said he packed his things before leaving.
Pate vanished, and nobody has heard from him since. A week later, he was reported missing. Then, on December 19th, some of his belongings turned up in Dawson Springs, Kentucky. His car was found four days later at a market in Yelvington, Kentucky, about 100 miles away.
Police think something bad happened to Pate, and the Owensboro police are still investigating.
