AL AL - Ronald Dumas, 37, Huntsville, 15 Dec 2024

[Deleted member 212413]

Yes they did, volunteers searched the last place his cell phone pinged in Jackson, TN but didn’t find anything.

Thank you! I just meant as to where he was when he was with the others that have not come forward.

I can't help but wonder if his job as a real estate agent might play into this. We've seen several cases where agents have been lured into dangerous situations by the promise of a quick sale from wealthy buyer, etc. I wonder if he would have met with someone at an empty property, even late at night, if their story was compelling enough. I'm of the opinion at this point that Ronnie didn't leave Huntsville, or if he did, it wasn't of his own accord.

Update:
New details are being uncovered into the disappearance of Huntsville realtor Ronald Dumas Jr..

Now, authorities say they have records of his phone moving five days later south of Memphis on December 21.

To Note:
Authorities said Dumas’ car has gone through three separate searches done by a combination of the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, the Tennessee Highway Patrol, and HPD investigators.

Investigators said nothing in those examinations led any of the agencies to believe Dumas was forcibly removed from his car, and they have no reason to believe he’s in danger at this time.

Huntsville Police release new information regarding missing realtor

This case is fairly prominent on local news. It sounds like they haven’t identified the two women on video at the liquor store. I wish they would release the video.

According to the Benton County TN sheriff, the car was partially in the road. I guess that’s why it was quickly towed.

The FBI is assisting. Hopefully they can get some answers for his family.

 

[truthfinder2019]

“The traveling to Tennessee without notifying any family or friends, the abandoning of the vehicle on the side of the road, those things are just extremely abnormal,” Samples told News 19. “He’s not going to abandon his kids. He’s got three kids they love and adore him, he wouldn’t walk away from them.”

LE has no reason to believe he’s in danger at this time. However, Dumas’ family believes otherwise.
Samples told News 19 there were no signs in the days leading up to Dumas’ disappearance that would lead her to believe that he was in the process of abandoning his family.

I find it so very strange le doesn't believe he's in danger, I've followed missing person cases where le seemed far more concerned over less. Maybe I misunderstand, and le is still pursuing this case as any other missing person. I don't really understand what makes them think he isn't in any danger, except he was in the company with two unknown females? I don't really understand why that detail makes him in any less danger than say, a missing female in the company of two unknown males? Anyway, I hope le is looking into his whereabouts and making that paramount.

 

[tlcya]

sighted on video December 15th leaving a liquor store in Huntsville w two females. It is the last time he was seen. His phone showed activity (movement) on December 21st in Memphis.

I am worried Dumas was set up and the two females may have been the bait. I strongly suspect that he was not the one causing his phone to move around Memphis on the 21st. JMO

I hope the increased reward creates some leads.

Yes!!! This! I wonder why le is so sure the two unknown females aren't up to nefarious actions? I agree, sounds more like he might've been set up.

Same here -- what about those two unknown females???
Did they know him?
IMO, they could certainly be in wait for robbing someone, and it happened to be Dumas.
Or was he someone who fit a pattern for the women to do mischief -- serious mischief.
Hoping I'm wrong and hoping LE is correct, but I'm not convinced -- yet.
