"I just want to know where he is at," Launa Hall said. "I know something has happened to him."
Austin Wise was 24 years old at the time of his disappearance.
"I have a million questions with no answers," Hall, his mother, said.
The questions begin the morning of May 27, 2017. Investigators say Austin was at a friend's home on Griffin Road in Waycross around 7 a.m. and he tried calling his mother who didn't answer because she was at work. He then called his father, reportedly saying he needed a ride, but when his father got Griffin Road, Austin was nowhere to be found.
"That was the house on Griffin Road they were outside and he ends up walking off from there," Ware County Sheriff's Office Capt. Melissa Thrift said.
Capt. Thrift is now the lead on the case, she took us out to the area on Griffin Road where Austin was last seen. She said Austin and his friend visited the friend's uncle nearby that night.
"They would go over to his camper and then they had been back over to the home on Griffin Road," she explained.
She said investigators were told there was an argument and Austin walked off into the woods, but a search of the area turned up nothing.
The case has only gotten more murky with time, as rumors swirl and some of those close to the case have also died.
