Brian Ritchie Missing Person Case

Brian Ross Ritchie, a 36-year-old man, was reported missing from Boise, Idaho, and is listed in the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System as having last been in contact on October 26, 1999. Public case listings describe him as a white/Caucasian male with brown hair and brown eyes, about 5'7" and 125 pounds at the time he disappeared.

According to case information summarized by The Charley Project, Brian was last seen in Boise on October 26, 1999. At the time, he reportedly indicated he was considering suicide, and a firearm was noted as missing from his residence, adding to concerns about his safety and well-being. This account however, has been refuted by a family member who stated that he was not in fact suicidal.

He is reported to have left home driving a blue and white 1981 Ford pickup truck with Idaho license plate 1AG7481. That vehicle was later found abandoned in Boise County, Idaho, on November 5, 1999, roughly ten days after he was last seen, but Brian himself was not located.

The case continues to be described publicly as unsolved, with Brian still listed as missing in widely referenced case databases. The investigating agency identified in public summaries is the Boise Police Department. For those who may have information, even details that seem small or long-forgotten can matter deeply to the people who have spent years living with uncertainty and hoping for answers.
