THE ACTOR’S DISAPPEARANCE 

Sands went missing in January after he did not return from his hiking trip in the San Gabriel Mountains in Mt. Baldy – east of Los Angeles.

In February, Sky News reported that aerial patrols were being carried out “intermittently” in search of the actor. Usually, searches would be downgraded within 10 days — the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department told the publication. This was after bad weather hampered earlier efforts.

Several searches were undertaken for the actor both on land and on foot by local and state-level agencies. Authorities have also reportedly used a Recco device — which is able to detect electronics and credit cards. This was conducted in the hope of establishing a more exact area in which to focus search efforts.

The actor’s family now has some closure after almost six months of not knowing what happened to him.
