It has been 16 years since David Cook of Amsterdam went
missing from his residence in Amsterdam. The 55 year old man disappeared from
his ranch in mid-November of 2008.
Cook, was a 34 year employee of the nearby KCPL generating
plant at LaCygne, Kansas . On the day of his disappearance, it was a day as normal, Cook had scheduled a
contractor’s meeting at the ranch to go over plans for an upcoming project, but
the otherwise reliable cook, didn’t show up.
A 200-person search party, included several on horseback,
hikers, boats , and the Highway Patrol
helicopter assisted in the search , all to no avail.
After eight years, the family of David Cook is asking for
any information or leads you may have to be reported to the Bates County
sheriff’s Office or the Missouri Highway Patrol.
Cook has been missing since November 19th 2008.
Fast forward to 2024 – no new leads, no new information and
at this point, the disappearance of David Cook is considered a cold case.
Any new leads in the case would be welcomed by the Bates County Sheriff
