He apparently left the house sometime afterwards, leaving a note saying he was going out for a walk and would be back shortly. He was supposed to meet his girlfriend at 4:00 p.m., but never showed up. He has never been heard from again. Marble lived with foster parents and another child at the time of his disappearance; he had been in foster care since the ninth grade, having stayed with two families. He was still close to his first foster mother and visited her several times a week. All his loved ones stated they didn't think he had run away, as this was uncharacteristic of his behavior. He was a good student, about to start his senior year at Brattleboro Union High School, and was considering colleges, including the University of Vermont. His family and friends stated he was happy and had no reason to leave home. He didn't own a cellular phone at the time of his disappearance. Shortly after Marble was last seen, Tropical Storm Irene flooded most of the county. He is an avid hiker and there was speculation that he got lost or drowned as a result of the flood. Extensive searches of the area turned up no sign of him or his body. The person who visited him the day he vanished has never been identified. Marble's disappearance remains unsolved.

A person may go missing through a voluntary disappearance, or else due to an accident, crime, death in a location where they cannot be found (such as at sea), or many other reasons. In most parts of the world, a missing person will usually be found quickly. While criminal abductions are some of the most widely reported missing person cases, these account for only 2�5% of missing children in Europe. By contrast, some missing person cases remain unresolved for many years. Laws related to these cases are often complex since, in many jurisdictions, relatives and third parties may not deal with a person's assets until their death is considered proven by law and a formal death certificate issued. The situation, uncertainties, and lack of closure or a funeral resulting when a person goes missing may be extremely painful with long-lasting effects on family and friends. Several organizations seek to connect, share best practices, and disseminate information and imAge at the time of disappearance: s of missing children to improve the effectiveness of missing children investigations, including the International Commission on Missing Persons, the International Centre for Missing & Exploited Children (ICMEC), as well as national organizations, including the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children in the US, Missing People in the UK, Child Focus in Belgium, and The Smile of the Child in Greece.
