Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP148153)

James William Kulp, a 48‑year‑old male, was last seen in Tampa, Florida, on October 8, 2024. He is currently listed as a missing person in the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System under case number MP148153. The case was created and published in NamUs on July 24, 2025, more than nine months after his last known contact.

There are no publicly available details regarding Kulp’s physical description, clothing, distinguishing features, or the circumstances surrounding his disappearance, as the NamUs summary accessible through public sources includes only the date of last contact and location.

As of the latest updates, there is no listed involvement of local law enforcement or a designated investigating agency in publicly accessible records. NamUs typically requires such information for a case to be published, but those details do not appear in available summaries.

No additional public sources—such as state databases, media reports, or missing persons registries—provide further background, updates, or investigative developments concerning James William Kulp’s case as of now.

Thus, based solely on online sources, the case of James William Kulp remains sparse in publicly released information. Key known facts are limited to his identity, age, last-seen date and location as recorded in NamUs case MP148153.
