- Details of Disappearance:
- Amanda disappeared on May 2, 2000, from her home in Flemington, New Jersey. That morning, she was happy and chatting online with a friend about moving to Arizona to live with her dad. She also spoke to another friend on the phone before bed. Then, she vanished.
Her husband, Matthew, a Marine, was considered a suspect. He and their two daughters were in New York the day she disappeared. Amanda and Matthew had been married since she was 16. Things were good until they moved to New Jersey six months before her disappearance. Then, she got depressed, wanted a divorce, and there was a small argument at home two days before she vanished (but no violence or arrests).
Matthew said he thinks she left on her own, maybe with someone she met online. Police looked into her online friends, but no one was involved. The case remains a mystery.
