David Boykin Missing Person Case

David Anthony Boykin, a 35-year-old from Bakersfield, California, was last seen on July 26, 2017, and exchanged text messages with family members on August 1, 2017, marking his last known communication. Boykin, who had multiple medical conditions and mental disabilities, functioned at the level of an eight- to ten-year-old child. He also had a history of drug use at the time of his disappearance. His mother, who had traveled from Washington to help him receive medical care, later expressed concerns about the final messages sent from his phone, believing they may not have been written by him.

Boykin was described as 5'10" tall, weighing around 160 pounds, with brown hair and hazel eyes. He had several distinctive tattoos, including the names "Debbie" and "Kari," a cross on his forearm, and wings. He also wore dentures and had surgical scars on his abdomen. Boykin’s disappearance remains unsolved, and his family, alongside the Bakersfield Police Department, continues to search for answers regarding his whereabouts.
