ER doctor, 49, who 'worked in crypto' was texting his fiancé moments before he ... trends now
An ER doctor in Missouri who spent most of his down time cryptocurrency, had just gotten engaged days after finalizing his divorce and was planning to visit his children when he bizarrely vanished without a trace.
Dr. John Forsyth, 49, was last seen leaving Mercy Hospital in Cassville around 7am on May 21 and had been texting his new fiancé to tell her that he had finished his shift and he would see her later that day.
But just over a week has gone by and no one has seen or heard from Forsyth, whose disappearance has baffled his family. They say the first red flag was when the doctor uncharacteristically failed to show up for his shift at the hospital that night.
A short time later, authorities located his black Infiniti sedan abandoned at the Cassville Aquatic Park in the Ozarks. The car keys were inside, along with Forsyth's wallet, passport and briefcase.
A further search revealed that two cell phones were left behind in Forsyth's luxury RV that he stayed in outside the hospital. But there was no sign of the doctor.

Forsyth's younger brother, Richard Forsyth, told The Daily Beast that it was clear something was wrong when he missed his 7pm shift at the hospital. Forsyth never missed a shift without telling someone in the 15 years he had been there.
'He wouldn't miss a shift even if his eyeballs were hanging out of their sockets,' Richard said. 'It was an immediate red flag.'
Forsyth, who is the father of seven children, had recently gotten engaged, just days after his divorce was finalized earlier this month, Richard explained. The newly engaged couple had been texting the morning he vanished.
'His fiancé was texting him around 7am… and as he was leaving he was texting her things like 'Hey, my shift's over' and 'I'll see you a little bit later,' Richard said.
'And then minutes later, he
