Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP11772) and 4 other sources
Michael Jerome Zipfel, a 45-year-old man, was last seen on June 1, 2004, in Coppell, Texas. At the time of his disappearance, Zipfel was struggling with mental health issues and drug addiction, which had worsened after a divorce left him homeless. He had previously been evaluated at Parkland Hospital in 2003 for his mental state and was released from jail in December 2004, just a few months before he vanished. He has not been heard from since.

Zipfel is described as a Caucasian male with blond hair and blue eyes, standing 5'9" and weighing between 130-140 pounds. He was in a vulnerable state at the time of his disappearance due to his mental health struggles. Despite efforts from law enforcement and missing person organizations, no substantial leads have emerged regarding his case, and it remains unsolved.

Authorities continue to seek information that might shed light on his whereabouts, and anyone with relevant information is encouraged to contact the Coppell Police Department.
