The family have already setted up a page for him and have been trying to search for him in years with absolute no luck whatsoever not even a clue just vanished off the face of the earth. He did his daily jog from his home and than vanished. They are begging anyone with the smallest information to contact them. They even allowed people for discussion as to what might have happened to him. My guess I have no clue since his details are very vague but it seems like he had no trouble in his life or any indication of trouble or runaway is pretty obvious foul play occurred in his case, possibly a racially motivated attack considering the town he lived.

I listened to the podcast of Victor and found some information. He was diagnosed with leper disease and did not drive and went on foot to places for a decade. He suffered from mental disorders due to to the loss of his mother. Several months leading to his dissapearence he would picked up by petrol cars due to public disturbance although unknown why. His brothers also noticed that Victor would talk to things other people couldn't see and most likely due to his mental health disturbance.

Atoka cold case featured on true crime podcast

A Georgia based true crime podcast is featuring an Oklahoma cold case of an Atoka man missing since 2002.

The Fall Line podcast features cold cases that have especially received little, if any, public attention. Next January will mark 20 years since Victor Ray Greenwood went missing. The podcast host and the Greenwood family hope this will spark conversation and bring forward new leads.

“Cause somebody knows something, I know they do. Cause it’s a small town like everybody knows everybody,” said Eric Greenwood, Victor Ray Greenwood’s younger brother.

Eric Greenwood was 17-years-old when his brother Victor Ray Greenwood went missing. Victor was 37-years-old at the time. He’s been an endangered missing person since.

“Everybody used to see him walking, I remember people would tell me yeah I’ve seen him walking down the highway. He did his same routine walk all the time, he never changed it up,” said Greenwood.

Victor walked everywhere because he was legally blind. He was last seen after leaving for one of his routine walks in 2002.
---
The first episode tells the story of his disappearance in an effort to spark conversation on his whereabouts.

“We are interested in asking people to think because there are people out there who might have an idea who might actually know or might not know that they know something important,” said Norton.

The second episode will be released Wednesday, and will explain all of the possibilities as to what happened to Victor or where he could be now.
---
The family encourages the community to listen to the podcast. If you have any information on Victor Ray Greenwood’s disappearance, contact the Atoka Police Department at 580-889-3250.
