Found Deceased MO - Varian Sawyers, 49, Hartville, 22 Jan 2018

[Dalagali]

49 year-old Varian Sawyers, 5-ft. 6 and 230 pounds with blond hair, was last seen on January 22nd leaving a cousin's house just off Highway 5 north of Hartville heading to his parents house where he lived less than a half-mile away.

But he never showed up and no one has heard from him since. He was described as being intoxicated and depressed at the time of his disappearance.

"That's what we were originally told," said Wright Co. Sheriff Glenn Adler. "Then another family member came in and said he wasn't intoxicated and no he wasn't depressed. I don't know either way. If he was depressed he could go out and harm himself or maybe he just wanted to get away and be by himself for a while. But he's well known around here. If he was seen, somebody would have called in."

Sawyers has been placed on the national missing persons registry, and a search of the heavily rural area by family, friends and law enforcement has so far turned up nothing.

The sheriff's office is looking for more information on this case so if you can provide any help, please call them at 417-741-7575.

The two completely different stories about being depressed and intoxicated vs. not at all is odd. Why would one person lie? Hmmm

Still missing according to MO DPS:

Perhaps..some guard what may be perceived as negative truth or maybe thought that because of circumstances of his condition he wouldn't be looked for?
ETA - if I mapped correctly - I am seeing a little water and lots of open fields.

Authorities in Wright County believe a body found in a barn north of Hartville could be that of a man reported missing earlier this year.

Wright County Sheriff Glenn Adler says a man's body was found Wednesday around noon, inside a barn a few miles north of Hartville.


He says the body had partially decomposed and appears to have been in that barn for about two months.
