On June 30, 2005, he went missing after going on an overnight fishing
trip on a sport fishing vessel out of San Pedro, California. In
January, 2009, he was found by "Dateline NBC" investigators living in a
beach town in Mexico under the name of Pat Kim. He has been working on
a yacht carrying tourists in and out of a marina just along the coast
from Sayulita. In April 2009, lead investigator Philip R. Klein
released the following statement: "Since the airing of the Dateline NBC
story and the media coverage of this story from around the world - we
the investigators in the case would like to say "thank you" to all of
you from around the world that have helped us track Mr. McDermott down.
Our team cannot ever say enough thanks to the people and governments of
the United States, Mexico, Brazil and Panama. As well, INTERPOL and
