When I saw the details, my mind went to drugs or other criminal activity. zjis most recent release from incarceration was in 2024. If you look at the details in the earlier criminal cases in Maricopsa County he was co defendents with several others, so he was not commiting all his crime alone at least, in his earlier cases which raises questions for me.
Who was he out with when reported missing? Could they be involved?
Does his family know his current status with the court system? Would they withold his location to avoid his going back to jail? Hard questions, especially for loved ones who may be unaware of the backstory, but they are questions that I'm sure LE is raising.
He is currently an official Abscondee from Release. He was released from jail in July 2024, and has not complied with the terms of his supervised probation. He was listed as an abscondee in November.

Another item to note: His last reported known movement (as reported by the courts/probation system) was Nov 11, 2024 which is almost 3 weeks after his family member said they say him "walk away in the forest".

I left out vehicular charges of which there were a couple non alcohol related. Also note, due to the number of them I might have missed one and there is another Lawrence Tenes in the system but different middle name that may show up in a search as the AZ database doesn't allow you to input a middle name in the query boxes
