Colby Richards, a 31-year-old Texas father who went missing from an early morning walk on May 26, seemed tired at work in the days prior to his disappearance, coworkers told his family.
Richards woke up early that Friday around 5 a.m., but when he did not return to his bedroom to get ready for work, his wife got up to check on him and noticed that their backyard gate was open and Richards was nowhere in sight.
“I talked to a couple of his friends, and I talked to his supervisor, and they basically said he seemed tired. Granted, he’s got small kids at home. Sleep is usually pretty precious when you have little ones at home,” his cousin, Allison Fox, told Fox News Digital. “That’s probably all it was.”
