Lawrence Kosden
STATE: AZ

DATE MISSING: 09-14-2015
DOB: 1946
AGE: 69
CURRENT STATUS: DECLARED DEAD
Kosden, 69, was reported missing Sept. 19, 2015, after he failed to return home after a planned trip to southeast Cochise County. His vehicle was found abandoned at Rustler Park with a parking pass, which showed he entered the campground Sept. 13.
A Cochise County judge later ruled Kosden “is determined to have died” Sept. 13 based on “circumstantial evidence” even though his body wasn’t found.
The ruling bypassed the state’s usual five-year waiting period.
