According to LE, he did not have his wallet with him.I wonder if it’s possible if he checked into a hotel? Did he leave with his wallet or credit cards?
Sleep deprivation (insomnia) can cause a psychosis.It would be really unusual for a 60 yr old man with no history of mental illness to suddenly develop a psychotic disorder. The month of insomnia and increasing anxiety without an identifiable stressor would be concerning for a medical condition. Or substance use. The family stated that wasn’t an issue, but people often hide their use. No judgment, of course. Just something to consider.
How quickly could one make it to the water from where Stanley was last seen? Would they have to go through (/over) a fence or any other major impediments?We live in HHI in the same neighborhood as Stan. We don’t personally know of him but we do have friends that live on the same street. Sea Pines is gated with a 24/7 guard house, and heavily secured with cameras everywhere. It would be nearly impossible for him (or anyone) to enter/exit Sea Pines without it being captured on the CCTV footage nor being scanned in at the guard house.
Sea Pines is a mix of single family homes and condos. The area he went missing from is part of where the condominiums are and is very close to the ocean and beach access. It’s normal for residents to walk around barefoot especially when you’re minutes from the sand.
We do have several lakes and ponds here that are populated with alligators which is one likely scenario. Law enforcement immediately jumping to him being endangered though makes me think they have tips from his family that support something unfortunate happening.
I've attached a map to the area where the family is staying (marked in red). There are a few ponds with very close proximity and the ocean is accessible via a few walking paths. A Hilton Head resident posted upthread that the Sea Pines community they are staying is gated with multiple surveillance cameras and SK would have been detected had he left the community via the main entrance. It would seem (imo) that he is either somewhere hiding in the community, although after 6 days, it seems he would have been sighted or he headed to the beach and traversed that way or unfortunately ended up in the water. I'm curious how long the family had been visiting Hilton Head before his disappearance - I haven't seen that reported by MSM.How quickly could one make it to the water from where Stanley was last seen?

I have visited friends in Sea pines and we saw a fairly large alligator on the walking trail while jogging one morning. However, you would have expected parts of that wagon to have been found by now if they went in a pond with him.I've attached a map to the area where the family is staying (marked in red).

I agree.
Insomnia from racing and anxious
thoughts?
Possible depression coming on.
Not a doc, just experienced in the ways of my own wacky brain.

Did they search the ponds?
Thanks for sharing, for those who may have difficulty in reading the info, I extracted a few key points.Here’s updated information for everyone. I am on the other side of the country from the search unfortunately which is why I don’t know particulars. We are still hoping to find Stan alive despite the odds. Thank you for all of your interest and support.
It should be noted that the Salty Dog is directly on the water, though it's on the cove side and not the open ocean side. It appears to be about 1000 feet across to the open ocean, but it's hard to tell from maps how many fences etc he'd encounter.Thanks for sharing, for those who may have difficulty in reading the info, I extracted a few key points.
* Severe insomnia and anxiousness started approx. a month ago, but became paranoid thinking people, including authorities were pursuing him more recently.
* Stan was not a fan of the ocean and was concerned about exposure to the sun, jellyfish and sharks.
* Stan is not familiar with Hilton Head, has not driven around the island or viewed maps.
* The only confirmed sighting was the morning he went missing around the Salty Dog, a local restaurant and recreation facility.
