Details of Disappearance

On October 9, 2002, Jerrold "Jerry" Strege's father went to his apartment because Jerry had not been answering his phone. Jerry's father found a light on in the bedroom, Jerry's cell phone next to the bed, and the television on turned to the golf channel. Jerry's wallet was there as well and his motorcycle was at the apartment. Jerry's father stated that he had last seen Jerry physically on September 23, 2002. Jerry was a prison guard and had been held hostage in a prison riot a few years prior to his disappearance. He was held hostage by inmates who tortured him and threatened to set him on fire.

Jerry was an avid, highly skilled amateur golfer and had been planning to compete in a golf tournament the weekend of October 5-6, 2002.

The prison grounds were thoroughly searched, and it is believed Jerry might have gone into the Horicon Marsh to check his deer stand prior to hunting starting.
