A 19-year-old who disappeared from his family’s home in Lake County nearly three years ago has been found in Utah, bringing astonishment and relief to his parents who feared they would never see him again.
Connerjack Oswalt was shivering and cold when sheriff’s deputies came across him Saturday sleeping in a convenience store in Summit County, known for its ski areas, said Sheriff Justin Martinez. Oswalt appeared to have been living on the streets there for about two weeks.His family had searched for him for years, handing out fliers, scanning social media and desperately chasing down fruitless leads.
Oswalt, who has been diagnosed with autism and other mental health conditions, was 17 when he left the family’s home in Clearlake. His mother, Suzanne Flint, remembered making quesadillas, but when it was time for lunch he was gone.“I never stopped looking for him. There wasn’t a day I wasn’t searching for him, in some form or fashion,” she said. The exact circumstances of his disappearance and whereabouts over the last two years are under investigation, police said.
“The deputies just felt that there was something there, something beyond a criminal warrant. There was a humanitarian effort that needed to be explored further,” Martinez said. When the Flints first got the call, they worried their son had been found dead. After his wife confirmed the identification through a birth mark, Gerald Flint left work, jumped in his car and drove four hours to Utah.
