VA VA - Donald Billings, 30, Marion, 14 Feb 1997

He got out of the car, which belonged to a sister, and told a man at the scene he was all right. He did not appear to be injured, the witness told the sheriff's office. Billings started walking down the road toward Mitchell Valley.

"I've run him through every database and every resource I have access to," Sheriff Schueler told Dateline. "One theory we have ishe had wandered off into the woods nearby, got lost and died from exposure. We've found others who that has happened to. But you would think we would have found him by now. I just want some answers for his family. It's been too long without them."

He must have been concussed/in a serious state of shock to have just walked away. The fact it's slap bang in the middle of a state park makes me think that for some reason he may have ended up off the road and collapsed due to hemorrhaging or something of the sort. Is it a well-used, travelled State Park? Furthermore is there any information as to whether certain areas were searched for him?
