Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP134500) and 12 other sources
Marvin Odom, a 20-year-old male from Dover, Delaware, has been missing since January 1, 1995. The case has recently gained renewed attention as Dover Police Department detectives began investigating active wanted persons in Delaware in October 2023.

During their investigation, detectives made contact with Odom's family, who revealed that he had not been seen or heard from since a court case in 1995. At the time of his disappearance, Odom was 21 years old, which suggests he may have gone missing shortly after his 21st birthday.

The circumstances surrounding Odom's disappearance remain unclear, and the Dover Police Department is actively seeking information related to his case. They are urging anyone with knowledge about Odom's disappearance or current whereabouts to come forward. Detective Logan Spicer is leading the investigation and can be contacted at 302-736-7122 ext. 448 or via email at [email protected].

This cold case, which has remained unsolved for nearly three decades, highlights the challenges law enforcement faces in resolving long-term missing person cases. The recent efforts by the Dover Police Department to revisit and investigate active wanted persons demonstrate their commitment to solving these cases, no matter how much time has passed.

Last Seen: Jan 1, 1995
