Delaware: Charles "Bobby" Steele and Benjamin Archer

from True Crime in the 50 Hosted by Katy Accardo

Charles Robert "Bobby" Steele had not had the best childhood. He got into a serious accident when he was 13 and became addicted to drugs not long after. But he was finally trying to turn his life around when he went to stay with his sister in Claymont, Delaware. Until April 11, 2014, he left to run a few errands, made a strange phone call to his sister and was never seen again. Benjamin Archer grew up in New Jersey and traveled out West for years. He got into a bad car accident and wanted to go live with his mother in Delaware City, Delaware. On March 2nd, 2016, Ben walked to nearby DuPont park in just a t-shirt and pants. Shivering, his family found him by a lake talking to himself. While they couldn't convince him to come home, they left some warmer clothes for him by the lake. When they returned to check on him, Ben had vanished and was never seen or heard from again.
