Tomjac, just read the article and 2 things stand out like red flags to me. First, were the roomates ever questioned or suspected of the disappearance? There is something not right about many of their actions. Secondly, why would a financially poor student run up a $12,000.00 credit card bill? Maybe he thought he had dug himself into a money hole that he could never get out of and just split to start a new life. That kind of debt would scare even a middle class student, especially if student loans would need to be repaid as well.New 12 page article about Robert Kovack's disappearance can be found here:

A Kanawha County judge will hear testimony later this year before making a decision on a Freedom of Information Act request regarding the disappearance of a Virginia Tech student and West Virginia resident who went missing in September 1998.
There is some concern that somebody did do something to him. We don't know where that happened or where that took place at. We don't know if that took place up here or in Blacksburg before he left and then they just brought the vehicle up here," Milam said.
