Hi y’all! I’m coming here to share a recent missing person case that has gotten some attention on tiktok, but seemingly nowhere else.
I’m going to preface this by saying I am definitely not a researcher or writer (I’m a barista in most of my spare time) but something about this case is just entirely transfixing me, and I am just wildly shocked that it’s not getting more attention. Given, most of the recent breakthroughs are still pretty, well, recent and fresh, I’m sharing the small bits of information I’ve seen in hopes that someone here who is actually talented in research or someone who has the ability to boost this might feel as moved by this as I have and look into it as well.
Admittedly, there has been virtually zero press on this – I have personally found no official coverage on this outside of the tiktoks I’ll mention, NamUs, and a Facebook page made by the missing person’s family. I’m going to do my best to be as true as possible to the very limited information I’ve been able to find.
So, I’ll start where I first found this case: 6 days ago (5/22/23) @ ry_of_the_desert on tiktok (https://www.tiktok.com/@ry_of_the_desert), Ryan, a creator who posts adventures of him discovering historical and archaeological finds mainly in deserts, made a post of him coming across a chair, backpack, hiking backpack, and guitar, as well as some blankets and clothes in the middle of a desert in Utah (about 40 miles outside of Moab). It’s chilling as these items clearly belonged to someone (I can re-post some screenshots of his video, but I do recommend you watch the original), and he ends the video by saying he’ll later post what all he found at the site in the backpacks. He posted a couple days later saying that he’s been in contact with authorities and there had been a “breakthrough”, so to respect that, he won’t be posting the contents.
Earlier today (5/28/23) Ryan posted another update, in which he sounds clearly affected and openly struggling to put this situation into words. He explains that within a couple days of posting the video of him discovering the items, a family reached out to him and were certain that the items were all belongings of their family member, who had gone missing more than 1 ½ years ago. He later gets a call from the family saying that they have confirmed the belongings officially with authorities. Their missing family member is Timothy “Jordan” Boone, a 36 year old man who went missing in August of 2021 with a pitbull mix dog. In his video, he shows side-by-side pictures of Jordan wearing the clothes that Ryan found. Ryan ends the video saying that he is back in the desert where he found Jordan’s stuff, camping out to search for signs of where Jordan might have gone. He says he doesn’t know why Jordan was there or where he went, but he’s going to do his best to figure out where he went from there.
All the info I have going forward has been things that I’ve found on Jordan’s family’s missing person’s page (Missing: Jordan Boone and Lily the pit mix dog - https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100082821130300) – for the sake of condensing, I’m going to paraphrase, but I HIGHLY suggest you visit this page for the family’s full story.
On August 1, 2021 Jordan was heading towards San Rafael to camp in his camping van with his dog, Lily, and his brother’s dog, Cooper, that he brought with him. Jordan is bipolar and was experiencing mania at the time, so his family contacted local law enforcement to keep an eye on him. Apparently his van got stuck due to some local flooding, and it’s believed that he had to abandon it and went to find help, taking the dogs and the belongings found in Ryan’s video (the guitar in particular had huge sentimental meaning to Jordan).
On August 3rd 2021 a passing couple picked him up and brought him to Huntington, Utah and was checked out by EMTs, where he was found to be dehydrated and was wearing a wet-suit (apparently like a SCUBA diving wet-suit? details are scarce). An officer set him up in a hotel room and contacted his family. From the facebook page: “We told the officer we were weary of him being left alone with the mental state he was in. He would experience paranoia when he was manic and thought the government was conspiring against him.” He left the hotel on his own.
Later they find out that he went to Moab from there, because 2 ½ weeks later they found an incomplete statement from a phone company where he tried to get a phone on August 4th. He did not have an ID or money, so they did not let him buy the phone. His brother’s dog, Cooper, was found alive 3 weeks after he left the hotel, about 30 minutes from where Ryan found his belongings. His family says that they don’t think that he would ever leave his guitar unless he had to, and would also never consciously abandon Cooper.
His family says they don’t remember when (and were never told where) Jordan’s van was found, but that his wallet and computer were found inside and that one of the windows was broken.
After leaving the hotel, Jordan and Lily were next seen in Nucla, Colorado, and were believed to be there from August 11th 2021 - August 16th 2021, possibly as late as August 23rd 2021. His family does not believe that he will be found in the desert area where Ryan found his belongings. There has apparently been no other searches conducted in the area, except for Ryan himself searching the area in his personal time. I cannot confirm that there aren't any searches being planned – just that I see nothing currently confirming that there are. There’ve been no statements concerning this.
According to his family and NamUs, there was no official missing person report listed by the police until July 7th 2022, nearly one whole year after he went missing, due to some sort of error the authorities made (a potential reason for there being literally no press coverage or official statements on this). The family went to the SLC Police Department to ask why he was not listed and why they would not return their phone calls. He is on NamUs now. Here is his NamUs page with details and pictures of him and Lily: https://namus.nij.ojp.gov/case/MP95074
​
He has non-colored tattoos that were not uploaded on his NamUs (there are some pictures of these on the Facebook post):
-the Star Wars rebel symbol on the back of his right hand
-a round eagle on the back of his left hand
-an eagle feather attached to a daisy on his left forearm
-a bird on his upper left chest
​
The family says there are more details, but that these are the ones that matter. I can not find any more information at all except for what has been shared by his family and on his NamUs. I recommend going to their Facebook page to get more insight on Jordan and to see who he was as a person from his loved ones and the people who miss him. I might share some other things and comments I’ve noticed pertaining to the tiktok, but from here it’s mostly conjecture on my part and I want to keep this as fact-based as possible. I am getting the impression that his disappearance was not taken seriously due to his mental illnesses.
Whatever the case, my heart breaks for him and his family, and I am just hoping that this will reach the eyes of someone, even just one person, who could help make a difference in this case. Thank you for reading!

I’m glad I don’t remember much about spring 2006 except his comforting voice saying they should stop insulting the quality of my lacrosse. Apparently, even the way I cradled my lacrosse stick was offensive.
So, it was a girl who taught me how to play lacrosse. A college student I paid with my minimum wage student job probably like $30 to teach me how to play.
Everyone was offended. My birth mother who had already lost moral credibility in my eyes was offended that I was speaking to that woman. My cross country lacrosse team captain stared me down in the eyes during lax warm up sprint for having the audacity to play lacrosse instead of outdoor track. I knew I was dropping a lot of balls. I could hardly shoot. Jo Ja was counting down the days until Harvard.
Mi Su, whose Torah portion must have been about justice, commented on the JV field, at the school across the street, shared his cautious scientific theory that the reason the quality of my lacrosse was so poor (poor is not a haha word at all whatsoever and working class consciousness rocks!) was because I was scared of something.
I don’t remember the varsity lacrosse captain’s name, although I could find it if I really wanted to. I remember Ja Co for example, and other more popula wel-known seniors from the class of 06.
I apparently have absolutely no idea whatsoever, even now, about the extent to which upperclassmen were gossiping about me in fall 2005. My favorite year of high school. Freshman. Ka Jo (Regina George) and I both chose to play indoor track, which meant we had nice long rides on the bus together to distant points in Baltimore County. I remember her and I laughing together, probably in shock about the transition from middle school to high school.
I remember parents complaining in middle school about how their children were describing personal details about their lives on AOL Instant Messenger away messages. I remember ktzaqt23, of course. My favorite memory about her also involves lashon hara, gossip in Hebrew.
He pointed at this random woman in the hallway ho wore her hair in a messy ponytail on the side of her head, with the ponytail bunched up on the top of her head into a bun. He said “is that a dead animal?"
If it took me 17 years to understand the first part of the joke it might take me a while to understand the punchline. I bet pussy smells great and I think there is a deeper meaning to the joke. I drove, among other things, to a distant dual part of Maryland to lacrosse camp to get special summer camp training in 2004 or 2005 and improve the quality of my lacrosse. My lacrosse is just fine. Ka Jo and I crossed paths in the Salt Lake City airport in 2019 as I was returning home unsuccessfully for my attemp from my attempt to save my Georgetown student status. Her hair no longer looked like a dead animal.
It is the ultimate hazing experience to run a high school based around a competition to see who can be the best Jew, then send us out in the world. My favorite verse in the Catholic Bible right now is “you are the children of your father the devil." That’s also classically one of the most anti-Semitic phrases. The thing is, we ourselves, the students and alumni of that wretched high school, are more anti-Semitic than most people I know. We were anti-Semitic when we threw each other under the bus to chase a false chimera of being the Regina George or Winkelvoss twin of Judaism.
skamjave - Sasha Katie Ally Mimi Jessica Ali Vicki Emily
My favorite member of skamjave is Reaper. My second favorite is Sa, who had the audacity to put Dave Matthews in her screen name. My third favorite is the woman who took her bra off in my room in Latter Day Saints Hospital. She trashed every single item in my hospital cell, and of course I let her.
The reason my lacrosse was so bad was because a woman taught me how to play lacrosse. I hired a college student to teach me how to play on the same field where we had tryouts that spring afternoon. Even the way I cradled and dribbled the lacrosse stick was offensive. But the varsity captain knew so much about lacrosse that he would tell I was taught by someone who uses a woman’s stick. I think my lacrosse is decent and has steraightened out now. I’m done with normal lacrosse sticks and have started teaching myself how to play with a longstick like Ja De. I’m going to go running tonihhht before it gets too dark, then shower.
