They always say never to respond to these because of how frequently they're just criminals doing crime

I don't understand. Are you saying that the missing guy is a criminal or the people who made the post? Either way, why would reporting a sighting of him to the police be a problem?
Past-Adhesiveness150 t1_j1zf4ll wrote
Saying not to report to OP. Could be a stalker or nutbag. I agree, call the police if you spot the guy or car.... but not OP. The world is too s***** to believe everything you see on the Internet.

Yeah Say you were living with a psycotic abusive mother, and you left and blocked her, she would be making this post to find you

Does not apply in this case.
Banea-Vaedr t1_j1zd4gb wrote
These are frequently posted by stalkers or PIs and other people who have lost track of their prey.
Unique-Public-8594 t1_j1zdjbs wrote
Right. Does happen. More often when missing person is female and no police department phone number or police report linked.
Not if there is a legit police report.
OP: please link police report and don’t include private number for reporting. Would be better if you Remove Jule’s phone number so it’s clear this is not a stalker.

Just a friends brother; helping by sharing & directing all info to police
Think what you’d like - just keep a look out
Unique-Public-8594 t1_j1zf3cx wrote
People will be less suspicious of your posts and more likely to help if the only phone number given for reporting is the police number though.
Jmang322 OP t1_j201cs8 wrote
I’m just reposting what the family has up - it’s a friend’s brother and they’re going through a tough time as it is and the negative comments don’t help (not saying yours was negative; but opening this to the Internet - we all know what can come with it)

Sorry. Must be heartbreaking.

Unless, of course, you're actually looking for the woman in the picture and building trust by claiming to be searching for the man
Unique-Public-8594 t1_j1zevrn wrote
Good point.
Except in this case the Peabody Police Dept has posted this on their facebook page and multiple news media are covering the story.

The use of the word "operating" suggests he's not missing, just leaving his life behind.

Here’s some more info including very supportive comment from Michael’s wedding photographer.
Banea-Vaedr t1_j1zhk4y wrote
From that, it really seems like he stole his sister's car
cowghost t1_j1zj4y4 wrote
Who cares. Dude could be having a manic episode or a full phycotic break. And his family is trying to keep him from dieing or becoming homeless. Honestly. Go fuck your self, your a horrendous human and you are sick.
Unique-Public-8594 t1_j20jyqv wrote
“Operating” might simply be “sheriff’s lingo” for “driving” and you are reading WaY to much into this - unkind to the family.
Banea-Vaedr t1_j20k1z4 wrote
Operating is sheriff lingo for driving. And if he's still driving, he's not exactly missing
cowghost t1_j1ziw9f wrote
Your nutz. You need to get on anxiety medication asap if you really think the way you are. Its not normal and your definitely not helping or saving anyone. This person has been. Issing for a long time and its the man, ive seen posters and it on the news when he 1st went missing and the police number is posted.
Banea-Vaedr t1_j1ziynz wrote
I looked further into it and it seems he stole his sister's car
Unique-Public-8594 t1_j1zdurj wrote
Banea-Vaedr t1_j1zdzi8 wrote
Not quite. "He is now believed to be operating..." suggests something else is up.
zumera t1_j1zeft8 wrote
It suggests that he’s driving a different car, as the rest of that sentence tells you.
Banea-Vaedr t1_j1zeho3 wrote
That kinda suggests that he isn't missing.
Unique-Public-8594 t1_j1zi33z wrote
Unless someone used police terminology not intending to imply anything.
Banea-Vaedr t1_j1zi5qb wrote
Upon doing more research, it looks like he stole his sister's car and is on the run
cowghost t1_j1zjpm0 wrote
Again who cares? I bet his sister is worried af about her brother who might have mental health problems and be in the midst of a break down
Banea-Vaedr t1_j1zjsok wrote
Nothing I've seen so far suggests that. I'm not a fan of the use of "missing" here.
cowghost t1_j1zlxin wrote
Your a moron. Even if he doesnt want to be found, he is missing. Thats what the word missing means, it means somthing is not able to be easily found. And he is missing, wether or not he comitted a crime is absolutely no bissness of yours.
Banea-Vaedr t1_j1zm1n3 wrote
No need to snitch, then, either, is there? My business is "hey, don't believe everything you see online!"
cowghost t1_j1zmgyz wrote
No your a moron. I hope this upon you. As some one who has had a freind do exactly this during a phycotic break, inwish the same to you. Fuck you.
Actualy i rember arguing with you before about some other very stupid argument you made, and you deleted the posts. I forgot your the dumbist person in MA, and also now blocked. A pox upon you.

I wouldn't be calling someone a moron and using the incorrect you're in the comments. Just saying.
Past-Adhesiveness150 t1_j1zfgpl wrote
Too many people downvoting this. Unless you've seen a news story about this guy missing or have checked a police website..... How do you know? You gotta be careful, you can't just believe everything you see on reddit.
Unique-Public-8594 t1_j1ziit3 wrote
Agree 100% always be careful about missing persons reports. Some are stalkers. Not all missing persons posts can be trusted
BUT
Clearly this one can be trusted. It has been vetted by Peabody Police Department and posted by that Police Department on their facebook page as legit.
Jmang322 OP t1_j203bse wrote
You’re allowed to do the due diligence as well but this is the peabody police department’s fb page.
Please keep a look out and report all info to them directly.
I’ll add this link into each post moving forward
Past-Adhesiveness150 t1_j20lcbe wrote
Ty for the link
Banea-Vaedr t1_j1zfm3f wrote
Even the press reports are... interesting. The guy doesn't really seem to be "missing". He has a new car.
Jmang322 OP t1_j2030mo wrote
It’s legitimately his sister’s car that was borrowed - this was the last confirmed sighting.
Banea-Vaedr t1_j2033q8 wrote
Everything I've seen seems to suggest he ran away
Jmang322 OP t1_j2045js wrote
Nothing will ever make sense in a missing person case; I know all avenues have been covered by the police and there’s a reliance on the public to help keep an eye out.
I can’t imagine how I’d feel if it was my family
