Joe Rosebrook could possibly be connected to this case. He was arrested this past summer for his alleged role in the 2006 murder of Daniel Ott.

Thick case files at the Logan County sheriff’s office also list Joe Rosebrook as a suspect in a 1983 bombing of a van rigged with dynamite that critically injured a man about to testify against him in a criminal case. A mistrial was later declared. And he’s listed as a suspect in the 1999 disappearance of an 18-year-old high-school dropout, Michael Lattimer, who once worked for Joe Rosebrook but had begun cooperating with authorities
 
Joe Rosebrook was convicted last month of aggravated murder, conspiracy to commit murder and kidnapping charges stemming from the shooting death of Daniel Ott in 2006. Since he will be locked away for a long time, hopefully people that have information on Michael's disappearance will start to come forward.

The Ott investigation took years to solve because promising leads went nowhere thanks to Joe Rosebrook's reputation.

Sheriff McClelland said Rosebrook specialized in witness intimidation and that he remains a suspect in the 1999 disappearance of Michael Lattimer, 18.

“Detectives repeatedly ran into the phrase, ‘I know what you want, but they will kill me,’” McClelland said. “Witnesses flat out refused to talk.”
 
A Facebook group has posted about another suspect and his possible involvement. They are reaching out for any information and have brought in Michaels name into the post. The group is called a State of Injustice. I dont want to name the other suspect on this forum, but from what I know and have researched, seems like he would be the missing piece.
