Glasgow was last seen leaving his home on south Lookout Street in Little Rock, Arkansas at approximately 5:15 a.m. on January 28, 2008. His wife assumed he'd gone to work early. She found out otherwise at 2:30 p.m. when Glasgow's employer called to find out what he hadn't shown up for work.

The day after he went missing, Glasgow's dark gray 2002 Volvo sport utility vehicle (SUV) was found in a parking lot at Mather Lodge atop Petit Jean Mountain, a state park an hour northwest of Little Rock. It was unlocked and his laptop computer, cellular phone and two credit cards were inside. His wallet and keys were missing. Authorities learned the vehicle wasn't in the lot until the afternoon of January 29, shortly before it was discovered. There was no sign of Glasgow at the scene and an extensive search of the park turned up no indication of his whereabouts, but his last cellular phone ping was off a tower near Petit Jean Mountain. He was in good spirits at the time of his disappearance. He had just received a $300,000 annual bonus and put it in the bank. He has not used his bank account or credit cards since he went missing.

Glasgow was employed as the chief financial officer of CDI Contractors LLC, a construction company, and earned a seven-figure salary. His company completed major building projects in Arkansas, including the headquarters for Heifer International and the Clinton Presidential Library. His relationship with the management of Dillard's, CDI's parent company, was seriously strained. CDI was being audited at the time of Glasgow's disappearance and he was anxious about it, but the audit turned up no missing money and no evidence that he'd engaged in wrongdoing.

Glasgow was born and raised in Arkansas. He graduated from Nashville High School, got a bachelor's degree in business administration from the University of Central Arkansas, and a master's degree in business administration from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock. He is married and has a child. His hobbies include art, antiques, travel, fishing, hiking and snow skiing. He is described as a responsible person and it is uncharacteristic of him to leave without warning. Although authorities stated there is no evidence of foul play in his case, his family believes he was abducted. His disappearance remains unsolved.
