The Trail Went Cold - Episode 380 - Thomas Nuzzi

June 19, 2001. Anchorage Alaska. While staying at a motel, 52-year old registered nurse Thomas Nuzzi fails to check out and does not show up for his next scheduled work assignment in the town of Bethel. Six days later, Thomas’ abandoned Jeep is found at a remote ski lodge in Chugach State Park, but an extensive search of the area fails to find him. In the days prior to his disappearance, Thomas was seen with an unidentified man and woman. The couple continued to occupy Thomas’ motel room after he vanished, but they are never tracked down and it’s unclear if they had any involvement in what happened to Thomas. Was Thomas Nuzzi the victim of foul play or did he orchestrate his own disappearance? On this week’s episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore a puzzling unsolved missing persons case from Alaska. Special thanks to listener Wendy Murray for narrating the opening of this episode.

If you have any information about this case, please contact the Anchorage Police Department at (907) 786-8900.
