The reason Tom was not reported missing is because the head of his Frat didn't want bad press.His so called brothers have done little to find him.FIJI

How sad and pathetic is this--it makes me very angry to hear this.
I hope these Frat bros are out in full force helping to find Tom and make sure he comes home safe and very soon!!
That is what brotherhood should be about.

Tom's NamUs page has been removed. (Although the tattoo photo link still resolves.)
This usually means located but I'm not able to find anything to confirm that.

Strange...I tried to find a Find Tom Daniels FB or something like that but couldn't find anything either.

I'm not in the US so it's kind of difficult but I guess it would be the best if someone could call the LE phone number listed on his Charley page and ask if he's been located.

 

[MagnoliaMountain]

I sent the user "tom's mom" who posted on page 1 of this thread a PM a few months ago but didn't get a reply either.

I really don't know if he is still missing or has been located....

Tom has been put back in NamUs under MP #24010: https://www.findthemissing.org/en/cases/24010/0/

I find it interesting that he said somebody was coming after him. Sort of reminds me of another case "Neo Maximus" - he also disappeared after he thought people were coming after him.

At-least Tom is really tall so i'm sure he'd stick out a bit in a crowd. I don't know much about Miami but it doesn't seem like the safest place to get lost in unfortunately. I hope he is found soon.

 

[MagnoliaMountain]

This is so strange...I can't find a MP Facebook page for him, a website or something like that...I can't even find any online newspaper articles published later than 2009, the year he went missing (and he went missing in Nov). So sad...

I really feel he could be living among the homeless, suffering from mental illness, maybe self-medicating somehow.

Bumping.

I live a 3-minute drive from Mt. Sinai hospital. For over 50 years. Around the time time MP disappeared (2008-2011), I used to walk my dogs after midnight (I had two, large, "protective" dogs and didn't care to encounter other dog walkers, lol) all around the back of the facility. It's a very scenic walk as almost the entire rear perimeter is along the seawall along Biscayne Bay, with a fantastic view of downtown Miami and all the lights and skyscrapers. Well, along the seawall is not very well lit like the helicopter pad, parking lot for the cancer wing or emergency room area, all of these places being in the rear of the facility where I walked. Well, don't you know, I never made it past 5 minutes before security on golf carts said I had to leave. You know, the usual. Private property, sanitation issues if the dogs wound up doing their business, etc. I tried about 6 months later. Same thing. Tried one more time about a year later and same result. I have since then visited more than a few relatives at the hospital for minor surgeries, etc. And I always marvel at what I never new existed back in the days when I walked my dogs there. It was only then that I knew why the detected me so quickly.

This fella is massive, someone had to have seen him and what direction he went in. I'm not sure cameras were prevalent in 2009.

Daniels is a 6-foot-5 white male, weighs 230 pounds and has brown eyes and brown hair.

Details of Disappearance​

Daniels's friends last saw him at a pizzeria in Miami, Florida on November 2, 2009. He became agitated ran out of the restaurant, telling his friends "they are coming to get me."

Three days later, on November 5, someone called 911 to report a man asleep in a parking lot in Miami Beach, Florida. The man turned out to be Daniels, and police transported him to Mount Sinai Medical Center.

There is no record of him being treated or admitted, however, and he had not yet been reported as a missing person. Daniels disappeared again and has never been heard from again.

Daniels was a third-year student at Florida International University's law school at the time of his disappearance, and the university police are investigating his case. He lived at a campus fraternity house and worked part-time as a housing administrator. He left his car behind and he hasn't used his credit cards since his disappearance.

Daniels's mother, who lives in California, said he told her he was seeing a psychiatrist before his disappearance. Due to the circumstances of his disappearance, there is concern for his health and safety. His case remains unsolved.

Had Tom been at the pizzeria by himself (or with others) when his friends ran into him? Or were Tom's own friends with him when he suddenly said people were coming to get him and bolted?

This kinda feels to me like Tom may have taken some drug (meth?) that ended up making him paranoid. If he had been alone, maybe he took it before going to the pizza shop. If he had been at the pizza shop with other people, maybe they gave him the drug? Or if his own friends were with him, then maybe they need to be looked into?
