Kenneth Dewayne Stott, a 21-year-old man, went missing on September 17, 1983, from Porter, Texas. He was last seen at the Porter Lounge, a local bar, where witnesses reported that he left with two unidentified men in a yellow Ford Maverick. Stott, known by his nickname "Shorty," was carrying approximately $240 in cash, which he intended to use as a down payment on a truck in Humble, Texas. He has not been seen or heard from since.
Shortly after his disappearance, Stott’s own car was discovered abandoned in the parking lot of the Porter Lounge. His family became concerned when he did not return home, and on October 3, 1983, his mother officially reported him missing to the authorities. There were rumors circulating that Stott may have been murdered and buried in East Montgomery County, but despite investigations, no substantial evidence has surfaced to confirm this. His case remains unsolved, and foul play is strongly suspected. Investigators continue to pursue leads, and his case has been included in various missing person databases, but little progress has been made over the decades.
Stott’s physical description at the time of his disappearance includes a height of 5’8", a weight of 145 lbs, blond hair, blue eyes, and notable acne on his face and back. He was last seen wearing a plaid shirt, blue jeans, and black and white tennis shoes. Despite multiple searches and DNA collection from his family, his fate remains unknown, and his disappearance is one of the unsolved cold cases of Montgomery County, Texas.Last Seen: Sep 17, 1983
