I hate to say it but odds are his businesses started to fail he started drinking and died in the Mississippi river like all the other rumours I have heard. Its sad.
It's peculiar to me how Unsolved Mysteries try to completely rule out the possibility of suicide. At the same, it's understandable how painful it sounds but it's most likely true. First thing that points to suicide is the fact that his car was found just before the bridge. Secondly it was reported that he was intoxicated the night before, and with so much stress, alcohol allows people to take bizarre actions. Now, the fact that they didn't find his body with extensive search is explainable.
First off, the Mississippi river is very swift; so if he jumped at 11 pm the night before, his body was probably close to the Gulf of Mexico - the time they did extensive search. Now about the trucker... why is he so sure that it was John!? There are so many cases when people are mistaken for someone else. Even the Unsolved Mysteries case of Gail Delano, similar story where the trucker supposedly saw her, and he was gonna bet money that it was her.
That case was solved, she died from drug overdose in a completely different state - so the trucker was wrong. Similar in this case, trucker probably saw someone else, who looked just like John. And John himself committed suicide and his body is somewhere between New Orleans and Memphis.
What they don't tell you,is the million dollar deal he was involved in,suddenly ran into some problems,they have since been resolved,and the deal went through. He had been up for over 72 hours previous to his disappearance with no sleep. They said he was nearly dispondant,beyond depressed. It is in all likelihood that he ended up with stress-induced amnesia,and wandered away. He in all likelihood died after some time being homeless and amnesiac. Death from illness,exposure,etc...or possibly...
Poor family, it's been 19 years since this video played, he would be 47 today.....damn, hope he's still out there someday

All the parents in these think the missing have amnesia I think any stats would show that it's very rare.

Co-Incidental name -- Sgt. Jack Ruby.
Jack Ruby (not the Sargeant) was the man who shot Lee Harvey Oswald in 1963, after Oswald allegedly shot President John F. Kennedy.
