Robert Gautsche

Episode 116 Robert Gautsche Robert Gautsche was a family man and successful corporate manager who had a lot going for him, but the pressures of his job caused him to spiral. He fell into addiction which cost him his career, marriage, and health. He was diagnosed with Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome (WKS); a debilitating disease that greatly affected his memory, and his prognosis was not good. Robert's brother Brad, who was Robert's power of attorney, placed Robert into the care of an assisted living facility in Castle Rock, CO with the understanding that his brother would be safe and could not slip away. But on February 4th, 2021, Robert managed to flee from the facility. Searches were quickly conducted, but there was no sign of 58 year old Robert who has walked away with just the clothes on his back. There were possible sightings of Robert, but none of them led to him being found, and he remains missing today. In this episode, we are joined by Robert's brother Brad who discusses the frustration and long lasting effects he has suffered after not being able to find his brother. We are also joined by Detective Kristen Tinsley of the Douglas County Sheriff's dept who discusses the investigation into Robert's disappearance.
