Recovered/Located CT - Robert Hoagland, 50, Newtown, 28 Jul 2013

This is scary...sounds like son may have harmed his father, IMO.
 
Just a thought, and I mean no disrespect. The fact that the wallet/keys were found hidden under a doll in the bedroom, makes me wonder if he may have had a "visitor" or escort spend time in the bedroom with him. You may hide your personal belongings if you are allowing someone unfamiliar into your home. His wife was out of town, $600 was withdrawn...just something to consider. It could have been a setup where this person came in and had an accomplice to rob him and went way bad?

I think he was hiding it from a family member!
 
So son was released from jail after pleading guilty with no punishment or bond? I don't understand that since I thought people were sentenced to something for a guilty plea. Is he home now and helping to search for his dad?
 
Doing a Google search.... Newtown seems to be about 70 miles from Bridgeport.
 
The map purchase is interesting. Would like to hear if this was recovered.

It's a small detail that could possibly hold answers. Was the map found in RH's home, car, the car son was driving when arrested that night? If so, anything marked or was map folded to a specific area?
 
some snips from the above link:

Bit by bit, piece by piece, police and a group of volunteers are separately seeking to assemble a jigsaw puzzle of sorts that would point the way to the missing Robert “Hoagy” Hoagland, 50, of Glen Road, Sandy Hook, a man who went missing from his home in late July and has not been heard from since.

On Sunday, September 1, police, working with Newtown Underwater Search And Rescue (NUSAR) and the Lake Zoar Authority Marine Patrol, searched a section of Lake Zoar upriver of the Rochambeau Bridge in seeking any evidence of Mr Hoagland.

That Lake Zoar search turned up no clues in terms of Mr Hoagland’s whereabouts, Police Chief Michael Kehoe said September 3. The searchers worked a section of the lake between Rochambeau Bridge the Shady Rest section of Sandy Hook.


The case may amount to an abduction or may be a homicide in which there is no evidence, he said. What happened to Mr Hoagland is unclear, he said.

“We’re looking at all aspects of his disappearance,” the police chief said.

“It’s a very difficult investigation,” he added.

Town police called in state police to search for Mr Hoagland with the help of dogs, he said. The dog searches were extensive, Chief Kehoe said.

“We have no leads,” he said.

The case has been time-consuming and labor-intensive, he said. Such cases prove very challenging for law enforcement agencies, he said, adding that police will continue to put much effort into the probe.
 
From nurse's link above ==>. Mrs Hoagland noted that her husband left his home on July 28 without his auto, cellphone, wallet, passport, and medication. A $600 cash withdrawal that her husband made at a local bank several days before his disappearance remains unaccounted for.

---------------------------------------
I had been wondering about this $600 cash withdrawal. This article answered a few of my questions
 
There were conflicting reports on the color of the car (VW Golf) "Hoagie" was driving. Mrs. Hoagland confirmed it to be silver according to facebook. Also, there was misinformation in the media about the airport she flew into. She stated she "landed at JFK".
 
The report of a possible sighting in RI is promising. The person reportedly was carrying a backpack. From the media reports, it seems that the person was sighted on the road. Is it possible LE has the individual on cam (maybe at a business)? Hopefully they will be able to confirm or refute if it is indeed RH.

This case is good example of LE actively using media in their search.
