- Details of Disappearance:
- In 1993, William lived near Chesnee, South Carolina. On August 28th, he went to a bar with friends and they dropped him off at a feed mill. He vanished that night and hasn’t been seen since. His father reported him missing a few days later.
William had a criminal history, including drug and weapons charges, and had recently been released from prison. Police suspect foul play in his disappearance; someone even told police he’d been murdered. William is legally declared dead, but his body has never been found.
Tragically, William’s son, Scott, was murdered in 2003 along with his mother and two others at their motorcycle shop. Serial killer Todd Kohlhepp confessed to these murders, but police don’t believe they’re connected to William’s disappearance.
