6/15/05: Todd Geib, 22, Casnovia, MI

On June 12, 2005, Todd Geib, 22, was last seen at a bonfire in a rural part of Casnovia, Michigan, a marshy area containing 6 miles of hip-high grass. According to one report, he sent a text message to his mom saying he was having trouble breathing and that he was in a field. The message came from just east of the bonfire. After three weeks, his clothed body was found floating in Obenhall Lake. His wallet was in his pocket.

During an autopsy, Geib's blood alcohol content was found to be .12. His death was ruled a drowning, the manner was undetermined, although it was suspected to be an accident. The case was officially closed. Geib's family does not believe the official ruling; they wonder if he was a victim of the Smiley Face Killers profiled on the Today Show.

Anyone with information is asked to call 9-1-1. If you'd like to help with the search, please call 616-675-4516.
