Lead #3What was Terry's mental and physical state at the time of disappearance, and did he have any plans or reasons to leave the area?
Terry Cornell George, a 40-year-old white male, was last seen on Father's Day 1989 in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, when his ex-wife dropped him off at his choice of location. His sister did not report him missing until April 1998—nearly nine years later—when she realized she had not seen or heard from him since that day. The circumstances of his disappearance remain unclear, and investigators need to determine what happened after he was dropped off and whether he left the area voluntarily or met with foul play.
