TRUE CRIME TUESDAY on KOIN News AM Extra - MISSING: Josh Applestill
CC: Welcome back to True Crime Tuesday. Today we’re seeking your help in locating a man who was last seen in Corbett Oregon in 2019. Josh Applestill told his family he was attending a bonfire on February 8th, 2019. He was last seen at the snow gate, after catching a ride to East Larch Mountain Road where the bonfire was being held. All of Josh’s belongings including his ID and wallet were left at his residence in Corbett, OR.
Josh was officially reported missing on February 17th. Several searches were held within the weeks following his disappearance, but those searches soon turned into a recovery mission. In May of 2019, searchers found belongings, some of which were linked to Josh. Among the belongings were a prepaid cell phone, a beanie, an ipod shuffle, and headphones. There were a few articles of clothing discovered but they were never officially linked to Josh. While police cannot rule out that Josh left town willingly, they believe it’s unlikely. A celebration of life was held for Josh in February of 2020, a year after his disappearance, though his remains have not been located. Joshua Robert Applestill was 32 years old when he went missing and would be 35 years old today. Josh is between 5’6” and 5’8”, 135-150lbs and has blond hair and blue eyes. If anyone has information about Josh’s disappearance, they are asked to call the Multnomah county sheriff’s office at 503-988-4300
