A multi-jurisdictional investigation into a missing Marion man led officers to a Swisher home that is believed to be used to manufacture methamphetamine.

According to a press release from the Marion Police Department, officers were investigating the disappearance of James Booher when they learned of possible meth manufacturing at a residence near Swisher...

Booher was last seen May 31 in Cedar Rapids, he was reported missing June 3 and his vehicle was found abandoned in Cedar Rapids June 9, police say.

The article doesn't really say if James has any connection to meth or to that house. The point is, James is still missing.
 
I noticed that article as well.

CEDAR RAPIDS — Nearly five years after James Booher went missing, three people have been charged in his death. Matthew Robbins, 46, of Ely, and William L. Yancey, 43, and Danielle Busch, 29, both of Cedar Rapids, were charged in U.S. District Court on Wednesday in the robbery and death of the 51-year-old Marion man who went missing May 31, 2014.

Marion police in 2015 considered Booher a homicide victim but no charges were filed in his death until Wednesday. Federal prosecutors wouldn’t say what new evidence led to the charges.

All three face federal charges of robbery affecting interstate commerce, conspiracy to commit robbery affecting interstate commerce and using, carrying and brandishing a firearm during a crime of violence resulting in murder, according to an indictment.

Busch pleaded not guilty Wednesday during an arraignment. Robbins and Yancey haven’t been arraigned yet but are already serving prison time for drug and firearm convictions. Robbins had been linked to Booher’s disappearance but was previously only charged with firearms and drugs offenses.

All three defendants are accused of robbing Booher of methamphetamine and money by force on May 31, 2014, according to the indictment.
