Is this the same Benjamin Dayton that the FBI issued a guardian incident report on March 2024, in Tennessee?

Yes
I was browsing through the discussion on Benjamin Dayton's disappearance, and something struck me about the timing of his last contact. The fact that his phone hasn't been used since June 24th indicates it might have been turned off soon after he left for his walk. This seems unusual for someone who just stepped out briefly. Has anyone considered the possibility of him having a second phone? It might explain why communication with his primary device suddenly halted. Has his family confirmed whether he owned a backup or burner phone, or if any other gadgets were missing from his home? Sometimes these overlooked details can be vital in understanding someone's last whereabouts. Just my two cents!
Ben is my son, and suffers from some serious mental illness. He is transient and lived in his van. His van remained at his friend's home for a few months until it was eventually towed. He is no longer on any social media platforms. I don't think he would have had the resources to have another phone.
Has anyone looked into the hiking trails around the area Ben was last seen? It’s mentioned he was going for a walk, and there are quite a few trails nearby that could have been where he headed. Some of these paths can be pretty secluded and don’t have great cell service, which might explain why his phone hasn't been reached. I’m curious if local search teams have focused efforts there, especially if he was known for taking long walks or hikes. Also, I've read several forums where people suggested checking areas where Ben might have any personal connections or favorite spots. Does anyone know if he often frequented any particular trail or nature spot? Sometimes those details can provide a clue.
Wow, the Benjamin Dayton case is really puzzling. I've been thinking a lot about his last known movements. What's intriguing to me is how he mentioned that he'd merely be going for a walk. I mean, wouldn't someone have seen him if he just went for a stroll in the neighborhood or a local park? It's like he vanished into thin air, and that time frame is crucial. It makes me wonder if he had any regular routes or favorite spots where he liked to walk. Did he have any known disputes or issues with someone that might have intercepted him on his route? It's unsettling how an ordinary activity can turn into such a mystery. Keeping my fingers crossed for any updates soon.
