Details of Disappearance​

Messmore was last seen in Pleasantville, Ohio on August 21, 2023. He lived on Cattail Road in a rural area. On the night he went missing, he walked inside, telling his wife his phone battery was dead and he was going to get a charger. He then walked back outside, saying he was going to get a flashlight.

He never returned and has never been heard from again. He left his vehicle, clothing, money and tools behind, but his phone and keys disappeared with him and have not been found. Few details are available in his case.


Investigating Agency​

  • Fairfield County Sheriff's Office 740-652-7300

Source Information​


MY COMMENTS 2/3/25 for WS: Posting this because it is a relatively recent cold case of a perplexing nature. Does not seem to be much in the way of details as far as any ideas about what could be implicated in his disappearance, such as medical or mental history. Dude appears to have just stepped out and disappeared into thin air. But NAMUS and other social media still shows him missing, and case in need of attention.

His family either doesn’t have the slightest as to why he went missing, or may be keeping ideas to the inner circle for any number of reasons. But the area he was last seen is said to be wooded and remote.

I have no idea as to how it may pertain to this case but if there is ever a history involving drugs, some drugs can cause people to wander away aimlessly or enter wooded areas and get lost. Have zero idea if or how it could apply to this.
