Stephen Paoletti, a 44-year-old private investigator from Edgewater, Florida, was last seen on May 30, 2017. He had texted his girlfriend that evening, mentioning plans to meet for a Memorial Day cookout, and although he initially reported car trouble, he later texted that the issue was resolved. However, he never showed up at the cookout, and no further contact was made. His girlfriend reported him missing four days later.
Paoletti was living in a camper on a farm in Edgewater and was in the process of moving out due to a dispute with his landlord. When police investigated, they found his vehicle at the residence with the hood up and a battery charger attached. His cell phones were left behind in the camper, and there was no sign of struggle. His landlord claimed to have seen him on June 2, riding in a dark-colored pickup truck, but she has been ruled out as a suspect.
Stephen's family has expressed concern about his well-being, especially since he had struggled with ADHD and depression but seemed to have those conditions under control at the time of his disappearance. Authorities have found little evidence to explain what happened to him, and his case remains unsolved.
