S13 E10 - He Always Came Home - The1997 Disappearance of Steven Clark

In the early morning hours of July 22, 1997, 26-year-old Steven Alexander Clark disappeared while walking home in Bay City, Michigan.

Steven was a son, a brother, a best friend, and a musician who loved heavy metal and played guitar. He had disappeared for days at a time before, but he always eventually returned. This time, he didn't.

Steven was never seen again.

This story was brought to Malice in the Mitten by a listener in Bay City who asked us to help bring renewed attention to Steven's case.

Steven Clark remains listed as a missing-person cold case by the Bay City Department of Public Safety.
