CLINTONVILLE (AP) Nationwide publicity on NBC's "Unsolved Mysteries" has provided a number of new leads in the case of a missing Clintonville businessman who disappeared nine months ago.

"This is the key to finding Craig," Christine Reinhard said. Her husband, fish farmer Craig Williamson, was last seen Aug. 30 while on a business trip to Colorado Springs, Colo. His credit cards were found in El Paso, Texas, and his rental car in Juarez, Mexico. Police suspected foul play and initiated a possible homicide investigation.

Few leads have been reported. Convinced her husband was alive but suffering from amnesia, Reinhard initiated her own manhunt, focusing on the Pacific Northwest, where her husband was raised.
