The authorities in Atlanta announced a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and indictment in the case of a missing Centers for Disease Control and Prevention employee who disappeared about two weeks ago.
The employee, Timothy J. Cunningham, 35, was promoted to commander in the United States Public Health Service in July, his family said. According to the police, he was last seen on Feb. 12.
I feel like Im in a horrible Black Mirror episode, Commander Cunninghams sister, Tiara Cunningham, said in a phone interview on Saturday. Im kind of lost without him, to be quite honest.
Ms. Cunningham, 27, was the last family member to speak with Commander Cunningham before he went missing, she said.

Hopefully he was smart enough not to run to the FBI.
That is true of a significant proportion of research, whether or not one does infectious disease research. If someone is too afraid to work with toxins, chemicals, or microorganisms that can easily kill a person who does not handle them with utmost care, then it is best to keep that person out of the lab.
I’ve read several articles but none indicated Cunningham was involved in criminal activity.
His parents drove down to Atlanta from what I read.
There’s another possibility: Some diseases mess with your mind something awful! He may have walked out the door while hallucinating, or forgotten where he was, or be talking to a tree somewhere.
I don’t know how much of a probability that is, but I just wanted to throw it out as a possibility. I think if it was suicide, he would have done something to make sure his dog was ok. And the billfold is a big clue also.
Also read according to co-workers he left work early because he felt sick. He didn’t call in sick.
This has been making the nightly news and front page of the AJC for the last week.
Very nuch strange
Someone should call the FBI to look for this guy . . . .
Funny how this sound like a joke right now, but at one point, that’s what you’d do in this situation.
"His research has been oriented towards understanding health differences related to race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, gender, and geography"
He worked in Chamblee and lived in the Bolton (northwest) neighborhood of Atlanta.
So you think he was using or dealing meth?
That’s kinda even worse news: he may have had knowledge of ethno-specific virii.

Yes a photo would be helpful.
If Mr. Cunningham has a badge, hope it’s been deactivated and its activity checked.
Here's what I said: "My guess......"
Which is just as good as yours.....
And by the way,
1. House locked
2. Car in garage
3. Keys left home
4. Wallet left home
4. Cell phone left home
5. Passport left home
6. Dog at home
So he either took a very, very long walk and is still walking or someone gave him a ride.......someone that he likely knew since there was no sign of struggle or forced entry in the house.
Of course there's always the chance that this was an alien abduction prior to the expected anal probe.........
How did he leave work? Did he usually drive or take public transportation? Seems unlikely he would deliberately leave his dog at home alone. But he must have arrived home from work if his personal effects were there.
Leaving all of his personal effects, wallet, keys in the house says to me that either he didn’t leave of his own volition or just stepped outside and was not planning on going anywhere. Leaving a well-loved dog inside and unattended only adds to that impression. Speaking of impressions he strikes me as gay. Good way to get robbed or killed, hooking up online, regardless of straight or gay but they do it with alarming frequency. Hooked up with a psycho or great cover for taking out a problematic individual who wouldn’t keep his mouth shut? Just speculation.
