	Description:		January 13, 2016, was a chilly winter day in Sonora, California. That day, thirty-four-year-old Troy Galloway was reportedly at home with his wife and young daughter when the couple had a disagreement. According to his wife, Troy ran out of the house and into the cold, snowy yard wearing only a t-shirt, jeans, and shoes. Troy never returned, and no one has seen or heard from him since. A couple of days later, Troy’s mother, Nancy, who was back home a few hours away in Santa Cruz, received a text from Troy’s wife saying that he was missing. Nancy was both shocked and frustrated that she hadn’t been notified sooner. At that point, Troy still had not been reported missing, and once he was, a jurisdictional mix-up further delayed search efforts. Since Troy was not reported missing right away, it took time to connect his disappearance to a commotion that neighbors said they heard the night he vanished. The neighbors were concerned enough to report it to law enforcement that evening. However, learning that information didn’t bring anyone closer to finding Troy; it only deepened the mystery. If Troy had truly run from the home on foot that night, underdressed for the January weather, where did he go? How did he disappear without a trace? And was that commotion heard by neighbors connected to Troy’s disappearance? For nearly a decade, Troy’s loved ones have been trying to piece together what clues they have to answer those questions. Today, they’re hoping to reach someone who holds the missing piece that could finally explain what happened to Troy Galloway back in January of 2016.
