Background

Miles Austin Stanton grew up in San Diego, California with his mother and two brothers. His father died in 2005 and his mother remarried in 2018.

In 2019, Stanton graduated from high school and enrolled at Brigham Young University-Hawaii. He was sent home in the midst of the pandemic and lived in San Diego for a few months where he worked with his uncle.

On October 2, 2022, Stanton moved to Tualatin, Oregon, about twenty minutes southwest of Portland, where he lived with RJ White, a childhood friend from middle school.

At the time of his disappearance, Stanton had only been living in Oregon for eighteen days and worked at FedEx in Portland.

At 3:30 p.m, Stanton was captured on security camera at 76 Gas, a gas station on Dolores Way North East in Aurora, Oregon, about twelve miles south of Tualatin.

Miles Stanton never returned home that day and has never been heard from again.

On October 24, 2022, RJ reached out by phone to Stanton’s mother when he did not show up after four days. His mother then filed a missing person’s report with the Tualatin Police Department.
