William Kelly Buntain, aged 49, went missing from Ramona, California, on March 22, 2010. He left his home around 1 p.m. that day, telling his wife he was going to buy bottled water but never returned. Later that day, he was seen near Lake Sutherland, where a San Diego worker reported seeing him upset and crying. Buntain mentioned that his mother had passed away, although she was actually still alive, suggesting that he may have been confused at the time due to emotional and mental struggles.
Buntain, an insulin-dependent diabetic, left home without his medications, and his disappearance raised concerns about his health. His car was discovered five days later in a remote area near Lake Sutherland. Nearby, searchers found his eyeglasses and socks, as well as a nearly empty bottle of alcohol he had purchased earlier. Despite a large-scale search in the area, no further signs of Buntain have been found.
Authorities believe that he may have experienced a medical emergency due to a combination of emotional distress, alcohol consumption, and lack of access to his necessary medication. His case remains unsolved, and investigators continue to search for answers.Last Seen: Mar 22, 2010
