I am also hopeful Max and his family will have justice soon. People talk and more than one person knows what happened. Hopefully, the DNSO can solve this case. Praying for closure for this family.

Sadly, it is August 1, 2022 and I didn't see any more info/updates.

Still no updates that I can find since the one posted above. If new information was received by the Sheriff’s office and interviews were being conducted (back in December 2021) you would think there would be some type of update by now.

Hopefully, they receive the right tip to bring Max home. It’s been way too long.

Hoping the new Sheriff will make sure this case is treated with priority and bring it to a close.

Max Greenfield

On the night of March 17, 2018, Max Greenfield began messaging his friends asking if anyone wanted to go to the Lucky 7 Casino in Smith River, California. The casino was less than a 15-minute drive from Max’s house in Bookings, Oregon, and family says he went there often with friends. Security footage provided by the casino shows Max, 25, arriving around 1:00 a.m. A Curry County Sheriff’s Office press release says Max was then seen going outside the casino and waiting near the back door. Around 1:50 a.m., security footage shows Max talking to a white adult male in front of the casino. Max and the man are then seen walking south across the parking lot, parallel to Highway 101, until they go off camera, still walking south. Eighteen minutes later, the man re-enters the casino alone. In a statement to authorities, the man said he and Max “went separate ways after leaving the casino.” Police told Dateline in 2018 that after conducting numerous interviews and searches they have suspects in the case but are not publicly releasing their names. Authorities say foul play is suspected and Max’s case is being treated as a homicide investigation. Since the casino is in Del Norte County, Curry County investigators handed the case over to the Del Norte County Sheriff’s Office once it was determined that’s where Max was last seen. In December 2021, NBC affiliate KOBI-TV reported that the Del Norte County Sheriff's Office announced it “anticipates significant progress" in the investigation into Max’s disappearance based on new information and potential evidence. Dateline reached out to the sheriff’s office to confirm but has not yet heard back. If you have any information on Max’s case, please contact the Del Norte Sheriff's office at (707) 464-4191.
 
The man he was last seen with has been questioned by authorities. This is being investigated as a possible homicide.

Max Greenfield was last seen March 17, 2018 by his mother in Harbor, Oregon. Investigators were able to track Max to the Lucky 7 Casino in Smith River, California. He was last seen wearing black jeans, dark t-shirt, black jacket, and a dark knit cap. He also had a black duffel bag.

If you have any information about Max Greenfield's disappearance please call the Curry County Sheriff's Office at 541-247-3242.

Thinking of Max today.
This case is so frustrating because it sounds like the police know exactly what happened to Max and who is responsible for his disappearance, but they just don't have enough evidence to act. I think that might be even more torturous for the family than not knowing anything at all.

I agree. Plus, the detective that was working the case is no longer there so not sure how much further this case can be stunted. My heart aches for his mom. Hopefully, someone will roll over on the others soon.
 
Bet this is drug related. Wouldn't be surprised if older guy sold him dope
Wasn’t Max the one with the duffel bag? If so, I actually think it might have been the other way around!
