It may be that some people think Brad Olsen's disappearance could be connected to the Smiley Face cases, but no clues to that have come forth. He is an IL man and still missing. His case is also listed here. http://helpfindthemissing.org/forum/showthread.php?t=9909

There is a comment at this blog from a person who said they had seen him at one time in the past by a lake. They said they reported it.

BRAD IS STILL MISSING.
Brad Olsen, 26 was last seen looking for a ride home from a bar in DeKalb, IL at 2:25 a.m. He has not been seen or heard from since, and investigators have found little information about what happened to him.

Details
Olsen's friends had picked him up on Jan. 19 at the Maple Park, IL home he shared with his parents. After a night on the town at Bar One in DeKalb (1000 W. Lincoln Hwy), his friends--a married couple, his mother recalled--left early while Olsen stayed behind. At closing time, he called a friend for a ride home. (He last used his cell phone at 2:24 a.m., police said.) The friend was unable to pick him up. The last anyone remembers seeing him was about 2:25 a.m. on Jan. 20 when he was trying to find a ride home. He is still missing. As of now, police have no new leads on his whereabouts.
