Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP17747) and 4 other sources
Stephan Charles Dunaetz, 24 years old at the time, was last seen on September 23, 1981, at his home in Los Angeles, California. His disappearance is considered suspicious, and he has not been heard from since. Stephan was 5'10" tall, weighed 185 pounds, and had brown hair and eyes. At the time of his disappearance, he had a full beard and mustache.

There is very little detailed information available about the circumstances surrounding his case. Despite investigations and his case being listed as endangered, no substantial leads have emerged over the years. His father passed away in 2017, and Stephan was noted as having predeceased him in the obituary, although no official conclusion about his fate has been reached.

The Los Angeles Police Department continues to handle the investigation, and his case remains open. Authorities are still encouraging anyone with information to come forward.

Last Seen: Sep 23, 1981
