Charles Lawson Missing Person Case

Charles Jonathan Lawson, 42 years old, was last seen on January 13, 1988, in Tampa, Florida. On that morning, he left his home and went to a nearby convenience store, where he called for a taxi. However, when the taxi arrived, Lawson paid for it but did not get inside. Instead, he walked away from the store and has not been seen since. His disappearance remains mysterious, with no further confirmed sightings or information about his whereabouts.

Lawson was described as a white male, approximately 5'9" tall and weighing around 150 pounds, with blond hair and blue eyes. He was last seen wearing blue jeans, a blue polo shirt, and a light green jacket. Some sources note that the date of his disappearance is also reported as February 12, 1988, but this discrepancy has not been clarified. Despite investigations by local law enforcement, including the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office, little progress has been made in solving his case, leaving it open for over three decades.

There is limited information available regarding the circumstances of Lawson's disappearance, and it remains one of Tampa's unsolved missing person cases. Investigators have urged anyone with information to come forward, but his case has seen few developments over the years, adding to the sense of frustration and mystery surrounding it.
Last Seen: Jan 13, 1988
