Mark Charles Burleigh, a 32-year-old man from Garberville, California, went missing on October 1, 2017. At the time, he was homeless and frequently moved between several Northern California cities, including Garberville, Eureka, Ukiah, and San Francisco. Described as a white male with blonde hair, blue eyes, and standing between 5'9" and 6'0", he had distinct features, including a six- to eight-inch scar on his upper arm and chipped or broken teeth.
His family last heard from him in September 2017 when they dropped him off at a friend's house in Alderpoint, but there was a potential sighting in Garberville later that October.
Mark had a history of transient living, and his movements after his release from the Humboldt County Correctional Facility in mid-October 2017 remain unclear. His disappearance was not reported until February 2018, when his family became increasingly concerned after months of no contact. There were later unverified reports suggesting he might have been seen in the Eureka area, though none have led to concrete leads.
The Humboldt County Sheriff's Office continues to seek information on Mark's whereabouts, and his case remains unsolved. Despite multiple public appeals and a reward offered by his family, few details have emerged about what happened to Mark after his last confirmed contact in October 2017.Last Seen: Oct 1, 2017
