Steve Koecher missing since 12/13/09! The family is offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to the resolution of the case.

His car was found abandoned in Henderson, NV at a 55 and over community, it had been there over 4 days.

Residents called the police when the car had been there for so long.

We have a rental house about 2 hours from Henderson & Steve has lived there for about a year.



I hope he is okay! It seems unreal that he is really missing.

Here is a link to his facebook with his pic. If anyone has any information please call.

Police are asking anyone with information regarding Koecher to contact the St. George Police Department at 627-4300 or the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department at (702) 229-2907.

He has been on the news in Vegas and St. George. There are putting his pic on milk cartons sometime soon.

I copied this post from webslueths, it has the links to the video, the last time Steven was seen.

I'm sorry I haven't been posting replies. I'll try to get some in today.

I've never heard of the portfolio. Off the cuff I would say it was a resume. These links have been on the news so I feel ok posting them here. One of the white cars driving by is Steven's, then you see him walking down the street.

I'm not sure where you all would dig, but you're the pros. Could you all look at craigs list or something and see if there's anything, job wise, that would appeal to Steven in the area of Henderson in the time range of November and the beginning of December? He's a communications major and has worked in the newspaper business. I don't think he would look for further work in window washing. I think that's just something to pay the bills, but anything is possible.

Steve Koecher

The last time the neighbors saw Steve was 10:30 pm Saturday night (12/11/09). John across the street said saw Steve & his car there for about 20 or 30 min and he was gone by 10:30 pm.

Sunday morning (12/13/09) a friend from his church ward called him and ask if he could teach a lesson that day.

Steve answered and said that he was in Vegas but he could come back and teach if they couldn't find any one else.

That was the last time anyone heard from him or saw him.

On Thursday the Henderson police called Steve's parents because his car had been at a 55 and older community, since Sun, abandoned.

His parents filed missing persons on Friday and hired a PI.

Wow. Crazy. I was just reading sltrib.com and saw the story, then thought of a thread title I saw on SD. Sure enough, one and the same. Hope everything is okay.

Glad the word is getting out there. He had made plans to be home for Christmas before he went MIA. Still missing, unfortunately.

Steve is still missing. His family is very worried about him. We are worried about him.

Steve if you are out there and okay please let your family know, especially your mom, she is devastated and worried sick.

If your not okay know that your family is looking for you and they won't stop. They have hired a PI and are keeping your room just the way you left it.

Nikayla,

I have this thread bookmarked and keep hoping that there will be an update.. and that he's found safe. I keep thinking about him and Susan Powell. How awful for the families, especially at this time of year. Please keep us posted.

or

Thank you. I hope someone in his family will put his information up.
I sent a message to a few site admin/contact to see if they could add him.

I pray they find them both safe. It's intresting yet sad the difference in news coverage between Steve and Susan. Susan was missing a few days before Steve and she is on the news at almost every newscast. While I have only seen Steve on the news twice. I'm sure he has been on a little more than that but his spots are only like 30 sec long so more easily missed while Susan has much longer & detailed coverage, candle light vigils, interviews with friends/family.

Mr SD & Vegas peeps please keep Steve on your mind when out and about. He was last seen on foot in Henderson.

Still nothing huh, Nikayla? Frown Yes, I definitely realize the stark difference in coverage of Susan Powell VS Steve. Unfortunately, it seems white, young females always gets the most coverage. I am not being sexist, racist or an ageist - as I am a young, white female.. I am just being honest.

I hope that Steve just needed a break and is still safe, as well as Susan Powell.. although I know it sounds like foul play might be involved in both incidents.. I keep thinking of him ever since you posted this. Please let us know if you hear any updated information.

Was he behind on bills? The article says the electricity bill was late, but the mom says that was the landlord's (your) responsibility.

Here's [websleuths.com] a thread for him where his cousin is answering questions.
