Jack O’Sullivan
Jack O’Sullivan was twenty three years old when he went missing from Bristol since the early hours of March 2, 2024. He had spent the night at a house party in the Hotwells area and was last seen at 3:38 AM walking along the Bennett Way slip road toward Bristol city centre after trying to get a taxi home.
His final phone contact came minutes earlier, at around 3:30 AM, when a friend returned his call and heard him say “hello” before the line disconnected.
Jack’s disappearance triggered a large‑scale search involving nearly 20 police departments in the weeks that followed. One year later, Avon and Somerset Police renewed their appeal, asking the public to think back to that cold, snowy night and report anything they may have seen.
Despite extensive searches on land and water, including support from fire crews, HM Coastguard, NPAS, mounted officers, dog units, drones, and an independent oceanographer, no trace of Jack has been found.
In early January 2025, Jack’s family endured six days of anguish after being told that remains found on a South Wales beach matched his general description. DNA testing later confirmed the remains were not Jack’s. His mother, Catherine, described the wait as “six days of utter torture,” saying the uncertainty was the most distressing period of the entire year‑long search.
Jack was last seen wearing a green or khaki Barbour jacket, brown Ralph Lauren trainers, navy chinos, and a cream knit jumper. He carried a card holder, his driving licence, bank cards, his phone, his house key, a Peugeot key fob, an Apple AirTag, and an Emporio Armani watch. None of these items have been recovered.
His phone remained active in the Granby Hill area until 6:44 AM. A detailed map of his movements and a £20,000 reward for key information are available on the Find Jack website.
Jack’s family continues to search every day, convinced that someone knows something about what happened that night. They ask anyone with information to contact findjack23@gmail.com. \
Even the smallest detail could help bring Jack home.
