“Also, did police search Anthony's computer? Although computer searches were done in this era (if I recall correctly), digital forensics wouldn't really be defined as a field until later that year after 9/11, so I don't know if the circumstances surrounding Anthony's disappearance would've legally justified a search of his computer. If one had been done, we might know who he was talking to online, but I doubt a search happened because it's never been mentioned. Then again, would AIM, Craigslist, Yahoo! Messenger, etc. have kept records of chats, or did they just not bother because there was no need/ability?”

In high profile cases or juristictions with good resources I think certainly these venues would be considered even back then. But at that point it would likely be a case by case basis featuring concepts of probable cause or assumption of value of bothering. Important to keep in mind that 2001 was several years before ideas like Brandon’s Law… so if a healthy adult man just disappeared, there were often likely to be delays or limits to what resources they would invest in trying to locate that person if there wasn’t obvious indication or evidence of foul play.

In reality, lots of young adventurous adults really do walk away from their life, or drop out of sight for periods of time. Brandon’s Law is arguably very important precedent to motivate investment in trying to locate someone when circumstances contradict a blanket idea of going off and “sowing one’s wild oats”, and before it, the attitude of attention to men’s disappearances was definitely insufficient.

I get the idea that Anthony came from a healthy family, even if not super prominent, so I would say there is a fair chance they at least tried to look into online activities at some point, but who knows how effective that would have been in this case and time period. The patriot act around 2004 likely simplified this kind of endeavor, and then of course with time remote data keeping for social media became more reliable, but in 2001 a lot of info might still be partially limited to the device itself.

I've found this unidentified remains of a human mandible. I don't have the balls to call the medical examiner and ask them to cross reference though

@everyone

- Anthony had 300,000 in cash in his safe prior to going missing. Anthony had a girlfriend supposedly who he had given money to prior to breaking up with her, and was actively seeking to get his money back. Additionally, he had some back and forths with a coworker at the Dutchess diner (Trace Files Podcast)
- According to the interview early in the thread, Anthony worked all the time. But on that fateful day he had finally gotten the night to himself.
- According to the same interview with his father, Anthony was in his house ready for bed until he got a page and got dressed. He told his dad that he works all the time and wants to go out. He told his dad he would go shoot a game of pool and come back. He said he would be back in an hour.
- Anthony was supposed to go to Sharks Billiard Tavern. https://www.yelp.com/biz/sharks-billard-tavern-fishkill
- It was first told to his family that he had been seen at sharks but this was later recanted.
- Later on his car was found in the opposite direction by Spratt Park with his wallet inside and no sign of a struggle.
- The Dutchess Diner is the assumed name of Panorama Diner Inc. CEO Gustavo Bozas DOS ID 1233623
- The Principal Executive Office of Panorama Diner Inc. is located at 78 King George Rd., This location sits in between Anthony's residence and the location between his home
- Dutchess Diner LinkedIn - LinkedIn Login, Sign in | LinkedIn
- I looked into some of the employees , and one of them , Christine Vacarr, was arrested for stealing a boat in 2025.
- The FB comments on the Poughkeepsie police facebook post mention that the both Christine and the man she was arrested with are known in the area
- Christine formerly lived with her brother at 4 William Way and this property shows to have been bought in September of 2000
- It's rumored that Anthony's girlfriend was a police family, and he was actively seeking to get his money back from her at the time. I was able to find members of the NYPD with the last name Vacarr but I could not confirm any relation
- Is Christine Vacarr the unnamed girlfriend? She could have been as young as 16 or 17 at the time they would have been seeing eachother. This could also be why the girlfriend was only mentioned once and then not again after that.
- This sort of relationship would also create a moral justification in the eyes of the girlfriend as well as anyone involved in his disappearance.
- The problem is we don't actually know when she started working there, we don't know if that's the only employee with a checkered past or bad reputation locally, etc. etc. etc.
- TO REITERATE AGAIN: This is likely just a coincidence, but I suggest others do their own research in tracking down various employees of the Dutchess Diner in Poughkeepsie. I think it's very odd that four months before Anthony went missing, the former residence of a Dutchess Diner employee was purchased for 310,000. Anthony had about 300,000 in cash prior to going missing. It would be great if someone could find more records on this sale.
Now , on to another weird quirk in this story
- Sharks Billiard Tavern was supposedly at 2210 Old Route 9, Fishkill, NY SUPPOSEDLY - I can't actually verify that this address exists, but a filing exists at this address. It's possible this is now located in a present day Apartment Complex, OR it might be a CVS now. But we know the general area at the least.
- This address was filed in 1997 as MJN Restaurants Corp. anonymously with 2210 as the address DOS ID:2143880
- MJN Restuarant Corp was dissolved on Dec 21 1998
- Then a new company with a similar name formed in March 2001 in Horsehead NY as MJN Restuarant Inc. DOS ID:2629469
Were they continuing to operate in between 98 and 2001? Either way, what was the reason behind this? It's possible they are unconnected to eachother, but in reality - Shark's had to operate past the time of the original MJN's dissolution as that's where Tony was headed and was an investigated location
- The new company seems to have been headed by Mark T Nickerson until 2025 and is now headed by an Emily Micelotta and it operates to this day in Elmira, NY. I assume Micelotta and Nickerson are the "M" and "N" in MJN.
- There is a family with the same name Micelotta which were evicted in 2011 from 203 Ehrhardt Rd in Pearl River NY, which may have been the senior Micelotta's of MJN but I have not yet confirmed.
- It's possible the Micelotta's were a local family involved in the ownership of Sharks - one thing that could point towards this is finding records of Nickerson's in the area at that time.

Someone please jump in, I need a break from all this research......
