The Cayuga County Sheriff’s Office is still searching for answers after a person disappeared in the county 28 years ago.
Dean Dawson was 40 years old when he disappeared, having last been seen in the Sterling/Martville area on April 25, 1996. He was described at the time as 6’1″, 185 lbs, with brown hair and blue eyes, and was last seen wearing a blue jean jacket, blue jeans, and work boots.
The sheriff’s office is asking anyone who may have known Dawson to reach out to them about his routines, work history, friends, or associates. Even if you may have previously spoken to deputies about Dawson, you’re asked to reach out. Due to the amount of time since his disappearance, the office adds no piece of information is too small.
Anyone with information can contact Detective Blanchard at 315-253-3902 or leave an online tip.
