Michael Stephen King, 52, was last seen in West Finley Township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, on Wednesday, December 3, 2008. Family reported him missing on December 6 after he failed to contact them for several days, which they said was highly uncharacteristic. At the time he disappeared he was described as six feet two inches tall, 230 to 245 pounds, blue-eyed, with a shaven head (he sometimes wore his hair long) and two small scars on either side of his head.

On the day he was last seen he wore an orange hunting coat, a black T-shirt, blue jeans, white K-Swiss athletic shoes, and several pieces of distinctive gold jewelry: a tight figure o chain with matching bracelet, a similar necklace, a diamond-cut gold rope chain with a large crucifix, and a few rings including one bearing an eagle. His cell phone and wallet were believed to have been with him. The Pennsylvania State Police opened an investigation; initial searches turned up little and there were no immediate signs of foul play or evidence he had left voluntarily.

The case remains open and the circumstances of his disappearance are unresolved. If anyone knew Michael, saw him in early December 2008, or has information that could help, please come forward.
