Michael's father reported that his adult son had been living in a tent in his backyard in Kirkland, WA. Boyce was reportedly unemployed and would access the home occasionally to do laundry, shower, and eat, but otherwise lived outdoors all the time. The reporting party hadn’t seen Michael since a family birthday party at the house on 9/3/23. He said this was highly unusual as Boyce had never been previously absent for more than one month at a time.
