How or by whom was his absence reported to LE?
Could he have just taken a short trip?
Did he live by himself? If so, would somebody nearby notice him not being there, or not see his car where it usually was (if he had a certain place to park)?
If he shared an apt. or a house with someone, did that person report him missing?
Did he not show up at his workplace, or if working from home did someone notice and report it to LE?
If his wife was home when he dropped the kids off, did she see him? If so, did he seem okay to her?

I'm not liking his last message on the same day he went missing, if it came from him. IMO
