Family and friends of Paul Shuman-Moore, a student at Grinnell College who went missing in September, posted a video on YouTube last week as part of their continuing search for him.
The six-minute video features footage of Mr. Shuman-Moore playing trombone with his high-school band, Caw! Caw!, during a concert in the men’s room of Northside College Preparatory High School in Chicago. It includes heartfelt appeals from his band mates.
“Some people think that he committed suicide, but we believe that he’s still alive, and he’s living another sort of life somewhere,” one of his bandmates says on the video.
Mr. Shuman-Moore was last seen at about 1:30 a.m. on September 25, 2006, and his roommate discovered a note from him the following evening. Extensive searches in the days immediately after turned up nothing.
If you have seen Mr. Shuman-Moore or know something about his whereabouts, contact his family at shumanmo@rcn.com, or call the Grinnell Police Department at 641-236-2650.—Sierra Millman
