Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP25279) and 8 other sources
Jeffrey Keith Joseph, a 45-year-old man from Los Angeles, California, was last seen on June 20, 2014. He had traveled from Los Angeles to Humboldt County, driving a green 1998 Toyota RAV4 with Louisiana license plates. His last known location was in the Hoopa area, a part of the Emerald Triangle, which is known for its large-scale marijuana cultivation. Joseph, who had previously owned a marijuana dispensary in Los Angeles, was reportedly involved in the industry, despite being on probation that prohibited him from such activities.

On the morning of June 21, 2014, Joseph made a phone call, and his phone last pinged off a tower in the Hoopa area. He was scheduled to return to Louisiana that day but missed his flight. Both Joseph and his vehicle have been missing since that time, and there has been no further activity on his phone. His family suspects foul play due to the circumstances surrounding his disappearance.

Despite extensive searches and investigations, no trace of Joseph or his vehicle has been found. The Los Angeles Police Department continues to investigate his case, which remains unsolved.
