Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP28259) and 13 other sources

Paul Bonin, a 50-year-old man from Concord, New Hampshire, was last seen on February 20, 2014. Paul, also known by his nicknames "Pauly" or "Pauly Wog," was homeless at the time of his disappearance and frequently stayed in shelters. On the day he went missing, he was last seen in the downtown area near North Main and Washington Streets. He was reportedly intoxicated and in the company of a friend. The next morning, Paul was gone, and no one has seen or heard from him since.

Paul was known to keep regular contact with his family and friends, making his disappearance particularly alarming. He was described as being around 5'3" to 5'4", weighing approximately 130 pounds, with gray shoulder-length hair and a beard. He also walked with a limp and was a regular smoker of Pall Mall cigarettes. At the time of his disappearance, Paul was wearing a purple hat, a gray jacket, blue jeans, and boots, and he was known to carry a backpack.

Due to his transient lifestyle, which included sleeping in dumpsters, some speculate that Paul's body may have ended up in a landfill. His absence from any contact with his loved ones strongly suggests foul play, but no solid evidence has been uncovered to confirm what happened to him. His case remains open, and anyone with information is encouraged to contact the Concord Police Department.
