At the link below is a Citizen Patriot File Photo of Henry in his Drum Major uniform. Henry L. Baltimore Jr., a 1970 Parkside High School graduate, was co-drum major at Michigan State University in 1972. He vanished without a trace the following spring, and his disappearance still remains a mystery...
If life really was like TV, the police would pull out a weathered file, talk to a few people and within an hour give Jackson's Doris Baltimore the answer to a question that's troubled her for 37 years.
"What has happened to my son?" she asks.
It's a mystery that has plagued the Baltimore family since May 30, 1973, when 21-year-old Henry L. Baltimore Jr. vanished without a trace from his off-campus apartment at Michigan State University.
It remains the East Lansing Police Department's oldest cold case.
"It is still an open case," Chief Tom Wibert said. "Missing persons cases aren't unusual, but we usually find something. This is highly unusual because there's been nothing for this long. There is no evidence of anything. He just disappeared."
