Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP20739) and 1 other source
David Graham was 43 years old when he was last known to have left his home in Hebron, Connecticut, on April 28, 2013. He was listed in NamUs as a White/Caucasian male, about 5 feet 8 inches tall, weighing roughly 135 to 145 pounds, with blue eyes, black hair that was bald on top, and a brown-and-gray shaggy beard. At the time he was last described, he was believed to have been wearing a dark blue hooded sweatshirt, blue jeans, and white shoes, with tape holding the right shoe together. His case was entered as NamUs missing person case MP20739, with Connecticut State Police identified as the investigating agency.

The known account of David’s disappearance begins with his departure from Hebron in his vehicle. Several days later, on May 2, 2013, he was reportedly involved in a vehicle accident in Taunton, Massachusetts. After that accident, the trail did not immediately end; instead, the available case information indicates that he spent two to three days in the lobby of the police station in Taunton. Authorities then reportedly provided him with a bus voucher so he could travel to the Pine Street Inn in Boston, Massachusetts. The Pine Street Inn is a well-known Boston shelter and service provider, and in David’s case it became the next reported destination in the timeline after his time at the police station.

The public details also note that David was reported to be depressed, an important and sensitive part of the case because it suggests he may have been vulnerable during the period after he left home and after the accident. There is no public indication in the reviewed sources that he had been resolved as found alive or deceased. His listing continued to appear in public missing-person indexes as a missing adult from Hebron, Connecticut, with the same April 28, 2013 last-seen date and the same basic physical description.

David’s case appears to have crossed state lines quickly, moving from a quiet Connecticut community to southeastern Massachusetts and then toward Boston. That movement makes the case especially difficult to understand from the outside, because the public record gives only a few confirmed points: Hebron, the accident in Taunton, the days spent at the police station, and the bus voucher to Boston. Each point suggests that David was seen alive after leaving home, but the available public information does not provide a clear account of what happened after he was directed toward the Pine Street Inn.

The broader purpose of NamUs is to serve as a national clearinghouse and resource for missing, unidentified, and unclaimed person cases, supporting law enforcement, investigators, medical examiners, coroners, families, and the public in resolving cases like David’s. In David Graham’s case, that public record preserves the essential facts: he was a 43-year-old man from Hebron, Connecticut; he left home on April 28, 2013; he was later connected to an accident in Taunton, Massachusetts; he spent time at the Taunton police station; and he was reportedly given transportation toward Boston. The overview of the case is that David’s last known movements form a fragile but important trail through Connecticut and Massachusetts, and the unanswered question remains what happened to him after those final reported contacts.
