The Disappearance
Nathan Millard, 42, of Covington, Georgia, was last seen on the night of February 23 while on a business trip to Baton Rouge, Louisiana. According to his friend Matt Still, Millard had spent that evening with a client at an LSU basketball game and then a bar called Happy's in downtown Baton Rouge, just a short walk from his hotel. When Millard failed to show up for a meeting with the client the next day, they went to check on him at his hotel and found no sign he had returned -- his belongings were still there, and his bed hadn't been slept in.
Scattered Clues
Still said Millard's phone was later found roughly four blocks from his hotel, and his credit card had been used at least twice in the surrounding area after he went missing.
