William Taylor Kaminskas Missing Person Case

William Taylor Kaminskas, a 50-year-old man, has been missing since July 1, 2001, from Tuolumne County, California. He was last seen at Lake Don Pedro. Authorities have described his disappearance as being the result of a catastrophe and have classified his case as a "lost/injured missing" person.

On the day he vanished, Kaminskas had gone fishing on Lake Don Pedro. His wife reported him missing after he failed to return to their houseboat. Subsequently, deputies discovered his fishing boat along the shoreline of Lucas Bay, which is east of Fleming Meadows. Inside the boat were his two dogs and his wallet, but Kaminskas was nowhere to be found. This discovery prompted an extensive search of the area by the Tuolumne County Sheriff's Office and the United States Coast Guard, but these efforts were unsuccessful in locating him.

At the time of his disappearance, Kaminskas was 5'7" tall and weighed 160 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. He may have had a mustache. He was last seen wearing a black San Francisco 49ers jacket, black pants, and sneakers. Kaminskas has several distinctive tattoos: a mouse and the name "Bill" on his right arm, and the name "Carol" on his left arm. His nicknames are Bill and Papa Wheelie. He has not been heard from since the day he went missing.
