Details of Disappearance
Benjamin disappeared from Burien, Washington on July 2, 1982. He had been living with his family, then he went to stay with a foster family in Burien. After only about a day, he disappeared and has never been heard from again. Authorities believe he left of his own accord, possibly to go back to his biological parents.
