This week’s featured missing person is Yinzhou Zheng, missing from Columbia, Missouri since September 2000. Curiously, Zheng’s wife, Xiang Sun, has also disappeared — but not at the same time as him. She went missing several days later. They were supposed to go visit their daughter in Iowa but never showed up.
The Missouri Highway Patrol site now has a poster for the couple; I’ll have to update their pages.
I wish I knew more about these two MPs — it’s one of those “just enough details to drive you nuts” cases. Were it not for the different dates, I would think maybe they got into some kind of car accident.
OT, I’m sure Meaghan has 82 of these stories in her inbox, but for those who haven’t heard yet, Joseph Norman Spears has been IDed.

This is pending DNA, but it seems pretty clear cut. Thoughts for his family.

Meaghan, this old special feature from The Columbia Daily Tribune may help you to add a little more information to the entries for Yinzhou Zheng and Xiang Sun.
