• She Went to the Laundromat Alone — Then a Man Followed Her Out, and She Was Never Seen Alive Again
    Corrine Perry vanished in 1983 on a quiet Sunday in Creston, Iowa

    On an April evening in 1983, 17-year-old Corinne Perry left home to do laundry in Creston, Iowa. She never returned. Her neatly-folded clothes were found in her car; her body was discovered over a year later.

    The case remains unsolved.

    It was a quiet Sunday when Corinne, a high school senior known for her bright smile and passion for theater, walked out the door for a routine chore. She was headed to the Highlander Laundromat just a few blocks away, a familiar errand in the small southwest Iowa town where she lived with her mother and sister.

    But what began as an ordinary evening would soon become one of the region's most haunting cold cases.

    According to reporting by NBC News, Corinne's car was found the next day outside the laundromat, her clothes clean and folded inside. But the teen was gone.

    Police initially suspected that she had run away, an assumption that delayed what would later become a full-scale investigation.

    Witnesses later told authorities that Corinne left between 8:30 p.m. and 9 p.m. and that a man walked out behind her. They described seeing her talking to a man with glasses and brown hair, believed to be in his 20s or 30s. But that man was never identified.

    Her sister, Letitia Perry, has spent decades urging authorities and the public not to forget about Corinne.
    "I know something was wrong immediately," she told NBC News. "My sister wouldn't just leave."

    Two weeks after Corinne vanished, her purse was found miles away on a bridge, undisturbed, with her glasses, makeup and personal belongings still inside. For more than a year, the Perry family waited in agony for answers.

    Then, on November 3, 1984, hunters stumbled upon a shallow grave, roughly six miles from Creston and near where Corinne's purse had been recovered. Inside were human remains later confirmed to be Corinne's

    The remains, just bones, had to be identified using dental records, per the Associated Press. Due to the condition of the body, a cause of death could not be determined.

    The Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation (DCI) reopened the case in 2009, hoping that advancements in forensic technology might finally lead to a break in the case. But so far, no suspects have ever been named publicly, and no arrests have been made.

    Letitia believes someone in the community knows what happened -- and may have even spoken with Corinne that night. Now in her 50s, Letitia says she won't give up until there are answers.

    “At the 30-year mark of her death, I sort of quit having expectations,” Letitia told NBC. “But I can’t give up. She was my little sister and I’m not going to give up.”

    The case remains open. The Iowa DCI encourages anyone with information to call (515) 725-6010 or submit an anonymous tip through their website.

  • Rochelle Gluskoter
    (April 10, 1940 - February 15, 1946)
    Rochelle passed away when she was 5 years old. She was sadly kidnapped from her home in Los Angeles, California as she was playing in her front yard. The abductor, who is believed to have been a stranger, drove up and lured Rochelle into his or her car, and she was sadly never seen again, despite the city's efforts to find her. A year later, her skeleton was discovered, and she was identified by the dress that she had been wearing when she went missing. Sadly, Rochelle's murder remains unsolved.
    Rochelle was a bright, happy, playful, and loving little girl, who is greatly missed by her family.
    Rest in peace, Rochelle!

  • Dana Nicole Bradley
    (July 24, 1967 - December 18, 1981)
    Dana passed away when she was 14 years old. She disappeared on the evening of December 14, 1981, while hitchhiking on Topsail Road in St. John's, Newfoundland. She had been at a friend's home after school and was on her way home to a family birthday party. When she did not arrive, the family reported her missing to the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary. Her body was found in a wooded area on the Maddox Cove Road south of St. John's four days after she disappeared. Her skull had been fractured by a blunt object and she had been sexually assaulted. In 1986, a man confessed to killing Dana, but later recanted, saying that the confession had been coerced, and all charges against him were dropped. No one else has ever been charged, and so far, Dana's murder remains unsolved.
    Dana was a sweet, beautiful, and smart young girl. At the time of her death she was a ninth grader and reportedly made good grades. She is greatly missed by her friends and family.
    Rest in peace, Dana!

  • Nevaeh Amyah Buchanan
    (February 3, 2004 - May 24, 2009)
    Nevaeh passed away when she was 5 years old. She went missing from her apartment complex in Monroe, Michigan. She was last seen playing outside on her scooter. At one point, another child who had been outside playing went to tell Nevaeh's mother that she was riding her scooter in the street. When her mother went outside to tell her to stay on the sidewalk, she had already vanished. A massive search for Nevaeh immediately went underway. Three sex offenders in the area were questioned, and one of them began burning things in his backyard as soon as he returned home from the questioning. However, the three men were all cleared. Sadly, Nevaeh's body was discovered on June 4, 2009 on the banks of a river. She had been buried in a shallow grave, and had died of asphyxiation from being buried alive. There were no signs of sexual assault. Sadly, Nevaeh's murder remains unsolved.
    Nevaeh was a beautiful, bright, intelligent, and happy little girl. She loved school, and had just graduated from preschool. She was described as a tomboy, who loved motorcycles, stuffed animals, and playing on the playground. Her favorite movie was "The Jungle Book." Nevaeh is greatly missed by all who loved her.
    Rest in peace, Neveah!
