In the autumn of 2017, a sense of concern began to grow in Dallas, Georgia, surrounding the disappearance of 47-year-old Male Cleveland Rakestraw. He was last seen on November 1, 2017, in the vicinity of East Paulding Drive and Mt. Tabor Church Road. At the time of his disappearance, Rakestraw was described as a white male with red or auburn hair and blue eyes, standing at approximately 5 feet 9 inches tall and weighing around 155 pounds. The circumstances surrounding his last known whereabouts were unclear, leaving his family and the community with many unanswered questions.
The official report of his disappearance was not filed until May 31, 2018, several months after he was last seen. The Paulding County Sheriff's Office took on the case, designated with the agency case number 2018523691. Despite the passage of time, information regarding what he was wearing or any personal items he may have had with him at the time of his disappearance has not been made publicly available.
