OROVILLE, Calif. -A controversy in Oroville involves two billboards, one regarding a missing person and the billboard that went up right next to it.
The most recent case, the disappearance of Neal King, is an example of one that leads detectives to believe there's been foul play, Freeman said.
King has been missing since March 26 after attending a business meeting revolving around marijuana and a property in Berry Creek. He was known to have gone to the Oroville home of Donald Cheatham, who authorities say hasn't cooperated with the investigation. Foul play is suspected to have played a role.
"We know he's missing, but we don't know what happened to him. We have a decent idea of what happened and why it might have happened, but we don't know exactly what happened to him, where he's at or who did it.
BERRY CREEK Relatives, friends and community members are gathering Saturday to search for a Chico man who has been missing almost eight months.
OROVILLE A Butte County sheriff's investigator confirmed a search was made today in Lake Oroville for missing Neal Forrest King, but nothing was found.
A McAllen mother said she will never stop searching for her missing son Neal King.
A mother is just driven, I just cant stop, Gayle King said.
A commenter on Neal's missing page says he found a potential clue but couldn't get the detective to call him back:

and then a search party today:

I wonder if there's a connection.
Cheatham has waived a jury trial, court date December 2:

The judge said there appeared to be strong evidence that Donald Cheatham previously participated in marijuana cultivation and sales, but there was insufficient evidence from an April 2, 2013, search of the Cheathams' residence for the sales-related charge.
Judge Reilley did find Donald Cheatham guilty of misdemeanor possession of more than one ounce of marijuana. He said the amount of marijuana found at the property on the 4000 block of Hildale Avenue exceeded the amount on the defendant's medical marijuana recommendation.
