On the night of December 2nd, 1976, three girls - 13 year old Teresa Williams, 14 year old Crystal Donita Parton, and 13 year old Cynthia Mabry were hanging out together at the Fairview Estates apartments in Russellville Arkansas. At some point that day, all three girls disappeared.
The girls were planning to run away to Texas. The last person to see them alive was a man named James B. Grinder. They got into his car and no one ever saw any trace of the girls again.

On Friday, October 27, 1989, 10-year-old Amy Mihaljevic rode her bike to Bay Middle School in Bay Village, Ohio. She was excited about yearbook photo retakes, but after classes ended Amy’s mother expected a daily check-in call, and although Amy phoned her saying her choir tryout went well, she never came home.
Investigators learned Amy had actually walked to the nearby Bay Square Shopping Center with friends after school. An unknown caller had convinced her to meet them there to buy a “gift” for her mother — a story that wasn't true. Witnesses saw her speaking with a man in the parking lot before she vanished. Months later, on February 8, 1990, a jogger discovered Amy’s body in a rural cornfield in Ashland County, ending the search but leaving behind a haunting mystery.

On December 20, 1984, 12-year-old Jonelle Matthews returned home from a Christmas choir concert in Greeley, Colorado, and appeared to settle in for the evening, leaving her shoes, clothes, and a note from a phone call before mysteriously disappearing.
When her father and sister arrived home later and couldn’t find her, police were called and quickly announced that they believed Jonelle had been kidnapped, as there were no signs she had left voluntarily. Jonelle remained missing until 30 years...

On Thanksgiving Day, November 25, 1997, 16-year-old Karen Mitchell vanished in Eureka, California. Originally from Whittier near Long Beach, she had moved north a few months earlier to live with her aunt and uncle, hoping the rural setting would suit her nature-loving personality better than Southern California.
That afternoon, Karen caught a ride with her aunt to Bayshore Mall, then left around 2:45 p.m. to walk about a mile along Broadway (US 101) to her daycare job...but she never arrived. When her aunt came to pick her up hours later, Karen was gone. Despite immediate searches and her mother’s desperate trip north, Karen Mitchell was never seen again.
