- Details of Disappearance:
- Delk disappeared in the Bronx, New York on July 23, 1982. He was at a job training center and called his mom to pick him up. When she got there, he was gone, leaving his everyday clothes behind. Nobody saw him leave.
A few days later, his mom went to Washington D.C. She called home many times, hoping Delk was back. Once, the phone was busy, making her think he was home, but she never talked to him. When she returned, his wallet and hat (which were missing when he disappeared) were back in the house, and it looked like someone had slept on the couch. But Delk was gone.
He’s never been seen or heard from since. Police think he was harmed and is dead. Before he disappeared, Delk told his mom that people were threatening him. She gave the police their names. There’s been no activity on his Social Security number. His mom said he would never leave without saying goodbye. The case is still a mystery.
