The El Dorado County Sheriff’s Office is continuing to search for leads regarding the mysterious disappearance of Justin Bonderer. Justin would have recently celebrated his 36th birthday and is missed by his family and friends.

Justin has been missing since April 6, 2015, under suspicious circumstances. Justin is a white male adult, 36 years old, about 5’ 11” tall, 180 pounds, with short brown hair and brown eyes. Justin was a long time resident of Georgetown before moving to Camino with his then girlfriend. Detectives were able to track Justin up through April 7th, 2015, where he was last seen in Placerville, possibly on his way to Camino.

School Threat Resolved
On 8-26-16 an El Dorado County Sheriff’s Office School Resource Officer (SRO) received information that a student had made threats via Snap Chat that he was going to “shoot up the school”. Deputies responded to Oak Ridge High School and detained a 14 year old male student. The investigation revealed that he had not brought a firearm to school. The investigation is ongoing into the reason for the threats. The Sheriff’s Office would like to assure parents and students that the response to this incident was swift and at no time were students placed in an unsafe learning environment. The Sheriff’s Office strives to keep all students safe and will investigate any threats of this kind to determine they’re legitimacy. The student was arrested and booked into Juvenile Hall for terrorist threats.
