MAY 7TH, 2015

The Chagrin PD are granted access to the private journal of Klatos.

 

Several Pages are torn out, fueling statewide reports that his disappearance was motivated or pre-meditated, but leaving a dead end as to where he might have gone.

MAY 8TH, 2015

After dusting the journal for prints, and logging it as evidence, one page in particular is considered important; Page 17, specifically one quote:

"If time is like a stream, doesn't it have two ends, even it if only flows toward one?"

This is taken literally, and officers begin searching Chagrin River for any clue as to Klatos' whereabouts.

MAY 9TH, 2015

Police discover a loaded gun at the base of Chagrin River, along with traces of ashes.

 

Upon further inspection, the ashes appeared to have been from burned rubber.

MAY 10TH, 2015

After the gun is finished being dusted, none of Klatos' prints are discovered, ruling out the suspicion of suicide.

MAY 11TH, 2015

The prints of Morton Higgins (a gun shop owner from Hudson) and Thomas Michaels (a classmate of Klatos) are found on the gun, prompting them to be brought in for questioning.

Morton Higgins is released that day, after discovering he sold the gun to Thomas Michaels.

MAY 12TH, 2015

Since no official connection can be made between the gun and Klatos, Thomas Michaels is released until further notice.

MAY 13TH, 2015

A semi-intact piece of the burnt rubber is identified as having traces of Klatos, DNA on it.

MAY 16th, 2015

The death of Thomas Michaels is publicly announced, prompting widespread speculation he was either responsible for or involved in the dissapearance of Klatos.

MAY 17TH, 2015

Further inspection shows, apart from erosion by water and dirt, the gun was originally in mint condition and had not been fired recently.

It is eventually discovered that the cartridge had never been reloaded, and thus the gun had likely never been used.

NOVEMBER 24TH, 2020

After months without an appearance from Joe, the site "Stringjump Archive" is discovered;

 

It contains over an hour of home video footage of a man who appears to be Archie Klatos -- despite the fact almost all of the details fail to correlate with the known facts of his life, and many of what's depicted being impossible given the verifiable information of his life in the 10 years prior.

The footage dates back to 2010, spanning all the way to 2020. It clearly impossible for this footage to correlate with the life of Archie Klatos, and its authenticity is highly questionable.
