Summary

On June 12, 2023, 13-year-old James Yoblonski packed three bags, took his father’s cell phone, and walked out of his home at 12:52 am. He put his belongings into his father’s van, got in, and drove away. The next morning, the van was found abandoned on the highway near Devil’s Lake State Park in Baraboo, Wisconsin, over 25 miles from James’s Reedsburg home.

A search of the state park immediately commenced, and clues that James left behind made many think that this missing person’s case would have a swift conclusion. But over eight months later, James still hasn’t been found. Online speculation has run rampant, with everyone in Wisconsin and beyond asking, what could have happened to James Yoblonski?

Anyone with information regarding James Yoblonski’s disappearance can contact Bill Yoblonski at 920-292-0322 or at [email protected]. You can also contact the Sauk County Sheriff’s Office at 608-355-4495 or Sauk County Crime Stoppers at 888-847-7285.
