Christopher Thibodeaux, 31, has now been missing from Lafayette Parish for a week, his family said.

Thibodeaux was last known to be at his residence in the 400 block of North Wilderness Trail. The area is in a rural part of the parish, near Carencro and north of Gloria Switch Road.

Thibodeaux’s sister, Melanie Hayes, said she talked to Thibodeaux the evening of Dec. 7. Later that night, she tried texting him a few times, but got no response. She wasn’t immediately worried, thinking he had gone out or wasn’t near his phone.

Hayes was out of town for the weekend. When she returned Dec. 9, she started talking to family and friends and realized that nobody had heard from Thibodeaux in two days.

“All of Chris’ stuff was at home – his truck, car keys, phone, wallet. All of the stuff you use on a daily basis was at home and he wasn’t,” Hayes said. “That was overwhelming and startling. There’s nothing to go on. It’s like he just disappeared.”

Hayes said there was no sign of a disturbance at Thibodeaux’s home.

The family doesn’t believe Thibodeaux would leave on his own. In fact, Hayes said she and him had just finalized plans to visit a brother in New York later this month and ring in the New Year in Times Square.

“He had to wait until Friday to talk with his boss to make sure he could get off all of the days. He told me Friday that everything was good,” Hayes said.

This week, the family has launched a Facebook page, Find My Brother Christopher Thibodeaux, to share information about his disappearance.

"Today makes one week since my brother been missing and we still have not found him," a Dec. 14 post on the page read. "I'm asking that you guys please continue to post, share and pray for our family as we continue to search for him."

Thibodeaux works for a local landscaping company and has three children — a 15-year-old daughter, 7-year-old daughter, and 6-year-old son.

Although the sheriff’s office has called off searches, Hayes said detectives are still working on the case. They spoke to the family again on Tuesday and are reaching out to anyone who Thibodeaux may have been in contact with recently.

“Everybody is just trying to get information and figure out the next steps,” Hayes said.
