Brown hair, brown eyes. Michael has white scars covering his body. He is of Filipino descent.

Bar Details of Disappearance Michael was a junior at Sacred Heart High School in San Francisco, California in 1989. He was last seen as he was leaving for school on the morning of January 25, 1989 at approximately 7:30 a.m. Michael never arrived at school and has never been seen again. He was carrying a dark blue duffel bag with his school books and a clarinet inside it when he disappeared. On February 21, a couple found Michael's bag under a rock at the northern end of Baker Beach in San Francisco. They went to the police in early March after they heard about the disappearance in the news, and park rangers recovered the bag from the beach at that time. It contained part of Michael's clarinet. Authorities believe Michael was abducted by person(s) unknown. There has been no further sign of him since 1989.

It sounds similar to the Kyron Horman case in terms of how the alleged abduction happened (every other aspect of the case is probably different). Michael was 16 at the time so he was old enough to somewhat fight back- if he was abducted- that person had a weapon of some sort.

It really does now that you mention this, the only explanation is he was taken at gunpoint and goodness knows what may have happened.
This case seems a bit off from the normal missing persons cases when a 16 year old male disappears under suspicious circumstances, they found his bag and half of his clarinet and the question I have is where is the other half of his clarinet? It hasn't been said that it was recovered.
Also I may be saying this as an assumption, but it seemed Michael was your average good student, playing clarinet and dedicated to learning, and given that 1989 was the same year Jacob Wetterling disappeared perhaps there could a weird connection we don't know?

What is also odd here is Michael is a bit older than the usual target for a sexual predator although perhaps he looked young for his age. (Then again I remember when I was around 16 and a guy asked me if I wanted a ride home at the bus stop- thank goodness I was an AMW viewer even back then and said no!). So for the age and location factor (out west as opposed to Mid/Northwest), I don't believe this is connected to Jacob Wetterling case.
Not saying this is the case with Michael but taking him out of the equation, if I hear about a teenage boy and a bag being found near a beach and not showing up for school, I hate to say it, but I would think about the possibility of a suicide.
However, Michael from the description at least sounded like a normal and relatively happy student.
