Family of Missing Mason Patnett Searching for Body

It’s been six days since 38-year-old Mason Patnett disappeared, and his family is growing increasingly desperate for answers. The last time anyone heard from Mason was Sunday evening when he updated his WhatsApp status, but shortly after, he vanished without a trace. When his family checked his home, they found the door unlocked and food still cooking on the stove.

Sasha Patnett, Mason’s sister, told News 5 that the family has faced an intense emotional toll since his sudden disappearance. “When our search first started, we were…very hopeful, and we were praying to get him back home alive,” she said. “But regrettably, it’s been 6 days, and our hope is dwindling. The reality is really setting in now.”

The disappearance is especially difficult for their mother, who is already dealing with the loss of four children. “It’s really affecting my mom now,” Sasha explained. “She’s older and has her own ailments, and this is just scaring us…She keeps trying to figure out where he could be.” Sasha added that the family is now facing the possibility of finding Mason’s body. “We are most likely searching for a body, and so we’re just asking whoever took him to please just tell us where he is.”

The family also wonders if Mason’s past is connected to his disappearance. In 2012, he was charged with attempted murder, but those charges were dropped in 2018 after the alleged victim and suspect passed away. “We just want to find him at this point.”

The family is planning another search and continues to ask for the public’s help. “We are working on another search…hopefully we’re going to have information soon,” Sasha said. “We’re just asking; please just tell us where he is so that we can go get him.”
