Details of Disappearance
Hurt was last seen in Chatham, Virginia on December 9, 2018. He left home that night in a "stressed" state of mind, and never returned. He has never been heard from again. On December 12, his truck was found close to the North Carolina state line.

This lead to the police interviewing a friend in the area whom Hurt was reportedly visiting, but they were unable to find Hurt. His friend said he left in the middle of a snowstorm, leaving his wallet and identification behind at his friend's house. His wife reported him missing on December 14; she didn't do so earlier because it wasn't uncharacteristic of Hurt to leave for a few days at a time.

Hurt is originally from Bluefield, West Virginia. He has three children and worked as a carpenter on Craghead Street in Danville, Virginia at the time of his disappearance. Foul play has not been ruled out in his case, which remains unsolved.

Robbie's obituary
"Robert (Robbie) Isaac Hurt, 37, lived in Ringold, VA and originally from Mercer County, WV.
Robbie was last seen on December 9, 2018. His remains were found almost 2 years to the day -- December 9, 2020-- in a wooded area off the highway. He was 37 years old. Robbie succumbed to a lifelong battle with addiction despite numerous attempts to overcome the crippling disease. He was a different person when he was sober than when actively using. His family longed to have the sober version of him around." :(
