In honor of Pride Month I’m featuring a lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer missing person every day for the month of June. Today’s case is James Mark Shumaker, who usually went by Mark. He disappeared from Tampa, Florida on October 20, 1995, at the age of 32.
There’s some suggestion that his disappearance is connected to the murder-without-a-body case of Jason Galehouse and the disappearances of other gay men in the Tampa area, but I kind of doubt it. That said, after 23 years, it’s likely Shumaker did meet with foul play.
