Michael Charles Causley, a 16-year-old from Hawthorne, California, was last seen on May 11, 1979. On that day, Michael was involved in a boating accident in the Pacific Ocean, between Redondo Beach and Catalina Island. Following the accident, he disappeared, and despite efforts to locate him, his body was never recovered. It is presumed that Michael drowned, but his exact fate remains unknown. The case has since been classified as lost/injured missing, and authorities continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding his disappearance.
At the time of his disappearance, Michael was described as a Caucasian male, 5'7", 150 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes.
Despite the belief that he drowned in the ocean, Michael's case remains unresolved due to the lack of any physical recovery. Investigators have kept his case open for decades, and it remains one of many unsolved missing persons cases from that era. Anyone with information is urged to contact the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department to assist with further investigations.Last Seen: May 11, 1979
