William Douglas Sr. Missing Person Case

William LeRoy Douglas Sr., 63, was last seen on February 4, 2004, at his cattle farm in Woodburn, Iowa. He had been on the phone with his mother that morning but hung up to answer the door. After that, he was never seen or heard from again. At the time of his disappearance, William, known as "Bill," was wearing black Carhartt overalls, Wrangler jeans, and black boots. His bank accounts showed no activity following his disappearance, and there were no signs of a struggle at his home, leaving his family and investigators puzzled.

Douglas, a father of five, was described as a hard-working man with a close relationship with his children, especially his daughter, Betsy, who believes foul play may be involved. Despite extensive searches of his farm and surrounding areas, no significant leads have surfaced. In 2009, he was declared legally dead, although his case remains unsolved.

Authorities continue to treat his disappearance as an endangered missing person case, and the family still hopes for answers after many years of uncertainty.
