I’ve been following John Kiergan Williams' case for some time, and there's one detail I can't wrap my head around—why did he take his gun when he left that morning, but not his cane or wallet? At 82, and given his physical limitations, it’s odd that he’d leave without something that would support his mobility, yet he'd take a gun. It doesn’t make sense to me, especially since there's no indication he had issues with violence or felt threatened. Could it be that he expected to encounter wildlife or something else in the area? Did he have plans that morning that he didn't share with anyone? I'm curious if any wildlife incidents were reported around that time which might offer insights. What do others think about this aspect?
Has anyone else looked into the specific area around Welches, Oregon, where John Kiergan Williams went missing? I was checking some old maps and found that there are quite a few trails nearby. I’m curious if these were thoroughly searched back then or if they might have changed over the years. It seems odd that he left his cane but took his gun – could he have felt threatened by something or someone? I know it might be a long shot, but has anyone checked if there were any reports of similar incidents in that area around the same time? The whole situation is puzzling, and I'm interested in hearing others' thoughts or if there are local folks who might know more about the area's landscape.
Has anyone looked into the timeline of when John Kiergan Williams left his house that morning? I find it curious that he took his gun but left his cane and wallet behind. At 82, and with his mobility limitations, would he realistically venture far without his cane? It almost seems like he left either in haste or with the intention of coming back soon, yet he never did. There’s been so much focus on the searches done afterward, but I'm wondering if there was any indication of someone possibly waiting for him or if any unusual vehicles were seen in the area around that time. Could there have been any local disputes or issues that might have prompted his sudden disappearance? Intriguing case, and it feels like those early morning hours might hold some keys we haven’t yet considered. Thoughts?
