On March 18, 2016, Leslie R. Horton Jr., a 30-year-old male, was last seen in Marshfield, Missouri. Public missing-person records identify him as a White man with brown hair and blue eyes, standing 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighing about 153 pounds; his date of birth is listed as December 22, 1985. The Missouri State Highway Patrol Missing Persons Clearinghouse issued a public awareness bulletin for him, and The Charley Project lists his case as a missing-person case from Marshfield.
The known public record begins and narrows around that single date and place: Leslie was in Marshfield, then he was no longer in contact, and the people who cared about him were left with the silence that follows when someone disappears without explanation.
The available public information says Leslie has not been heard from since he was last seen. That absence of communication is one of the central facts of the case, and it is also what makes the case so painful: there is no publicly described route he took, no widely reported destination, no detailed timeline of his final known movements, and no clear public account explaining what may have happened after March 18, 2016. The Charley Project states that few details are available, which leaves the case defined less by a developed sequence of events than by an unresolved break in Leslie’s life and in the lives of those who knew him.
Law enforcement information connected to Leslie’s case directs anyone with knowledge of his whereabouts to the Webster County Sheriff’s Office. The Missouri State Highway Patrol bulletin also lists the Webster County Sheriff’s Office as the contact agency, providing a phone number of 417-859-2247, while the Highway Patrol’s Missing Persons Clearinghouse is also associated with the public bulletin. The Missouri State Highway Patrol’s active missing-persons information notes that its listings are derived from NCIC information supplied through investigating agencies and are automatically updated, underscoring that the public-facing record is tied to law-enforcement reporting rather than speculation.
Leslie’s case remains a quiet, stark missing-person case in the public record: a 30-year-old man last seen in Marshfield, Missouri, on March 18, 2016; described as a White male with brown hair and blue eyes, 5 feet 10 inches tall and 153 pounds; and recorded as missing after he was not heard from again. The public sources do not provide a detailed account of what led up to his disappearance, who last saw him, where exactly in Marshfield he was last known to be, what he may have been wearing, or whether he had plans that day. What remains is the essential overview of the case: Leslie R. Horton Jr. disappeared from Marshfield in 2016, the publicly available facts are limited, the Webster County Sheriff’s Office is the listed investigating agency, and any credible information could matter to those still seeking answers.Last Seen: Mar 18, 2016
