18 Celebrities That Vanished Without a Trace or Explanation

Hale Boggs

Close your eyes and imagine the most famous politician in America outside the President of the United States. Now imagine that they had vanished without a trace. That is the perspective we need to have when discussing Hale Boggs. Boggs had sat opposite many prominent figures during his time in office, doubting the JFK shooting publicly while also going to verbal war with J. Edgar Hoover, a pretty bad fella.

In 1972, Boggs was expected to arrive in Juneau to help fellow party members hold their seat for the upcoming election. With bad weather and more than 325,000 sq/miles of area, Boggs and his vehicle would simply vanish without a trace. No plane wreckage or body was ever found.
