| Disappearance details | Neguelouart was last seen by his boss in Gooding County, Idaho on January 12, 1986, his 48th birthday. He has never been heard from again. He had picked up his last paycheck, but by January 16, four days after his disappearance, his bank account was overdrawn by $56. His vehicle was discovered abandoned on Highway 93, 15 miles north of Las Vegas, Nevada, later that month.
