Former broker missing for 32 years found working as Vegas bookie

The Chicago Sun-Times reports:

A former Chicago commodities broker who disappeared amid gambling and marital problems 32 years ago and was later declared legally dead has been found living under a false name and working as a bookie in Las Vegas, authorities said Friday.

Arthur Gerald Jones, a husband and father of three, was reported missing May 11, 1979, and declared dead by an Illinois court in 1986.

FBI agents had investigated his disappearance as suspicious and focused on possible mob connections, but they never solved the missing persons case, according to an affidavit filed earlier this week.
