Police give update on missing Cumberland man, foul play suspected


The department suspects foul play at this time in the investigation.

"We've uncovered evidence and witnesses who have collaborated a story around that there may be some foul play involved in Wilmer's disappearance, he was a very quiet person here in our town and we never took a complaint on him, and for him to go missing is very concerning," said Tyler Hensley with the Cumberland Police Department.

Locations, where LE think Wilmer Perez could be right now:
-in the Harlan County area, close here in Cumberland
-Benham
-Lynch
-but also Letcher County
-and Leatherwood

Yes this is strange and very worrying coming from LE.

MOO
 
IMO, this young man was found thankfully and LE never updated media or he is no longer with us...and based on the circumstances around him missing, I feel the latter is true unfortunately. :(
(moo)

Police still looking for Linefork murder suspect

How horrible! I’ll never understand.

Cumberland Police said during the summer that Perez left work about 10:30 p.m. to make the 10-minute walk to his home. Security cameras in the area showed he passed up his home and kept walking.

Police have long suspected foul play in Perez’s disappearance. The investigating officer said in May that police had evidence and witnesses leading them to believe Perez had been murdered. Law enforcement sources said police believe Perez either met someone or was abducted and taken to an abandoned building in downtown Cumberland, tortured and then killed. The sources say police have a witness who claims Perez’s body was brought to Letcher County, where it was disposed.
