PHENIX CITY, Ala. (WTVM) - A Phenix City man is still missing 21 days after a neighbor says he was last seen suddenly walking away from his truck that was running.

The family is skeptical about where 38-year-old Marcus Jones is and what happened to him.

Jones’ uncle, brother, sister-in-law, and best friend all say Jones’ disappearance was all of a sudden and that parts of the neighbors story is not adding up.

“Thursday, we had a good day and everything,” said Janika Hall, neighbor. “And he was in high spirits when he came home.”

This sounds suspicious. It's been way too long.

A couple other snippets from the article as well:

"[The neighbor] says Marcus Jones came over again later around 1 a.m. and she suggested they ride up to a store.

"Parked in a driveway with the keys still in the ignition and ready to pull off, [the neighbor] says Jones got a call that made him get out of the car and walk up this road and she says that was the last time she saw Jones."

"The family says they also found out [the neighbor] had driven Jones’ truck out of state after he went missing."

"The family also says they were told by an investigator that Jones told his job he was going away for a while. However, right now, the family says all they have is assumptions and no believable leads as to where Marcus Jones could be."

Well now, this really made me shiver. I hope the neighbor wasn't making a run to get rid of something/someone.

“We’ll send him up for an autopsy to make sure there is no foul play... to make sure he didn’t drown or have a cardiac arrest.. what the cause of death might be,” Bryan said. “My opinion right now is that it was an accidental death from a drowning, but we’ll let the experts do that. “

What in the world happened here? Did Marcus intentionally walk right on into the river after he walked away from his truck while on a phone call? Didn't the neighbor go look for him after he walked away? Such a weird story. MOO


Rest in peace, Marcus.
