Please refrain from going to the area. We appreciate Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s Office continuing to investigate in the disappearance of Bobby Jo Fritz.

Date: July 21, 2026
Incident: Robert “Bobby Jo” Fritz Investigation Update
Authority: Sheriff Ryan F. Waldschmidt

The Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s Office remains steadfast in its commitment to investigating unsolved crimes and cold cases, including an investigation into the disappearance of Robert “Bobby Jo” Fritz on May 14, 1983.

On Thursday, July 16, 2026, Sheriff’s Office detectives executed a search warrant related to this case at the village of Campbellsport home Bobby Jo lived in at the time he went missing. During the search, potential evidence related to the case was located. As a result of those findings, a larger scale excavation is currently taking place inside the basement of the home. Detectives are currently working in coordination with agents from the Wisconsin Department of Justice Division of Criminal Investigation and the Crime Lab to identify, collect, and process any additional evidence that may be located.

The Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s Office is dedicated to uncovering the facts surrounding Bobby Jo’s disappearance and bringing closure to his family. As this remains an active and ongoing investigation, additional information will only be released at a time when it will not compromise case integrity.
