- Details of Disappearance:
- Susan Szabo vanished in San Diego County, California on October 1, 1983. She had a difficult past, including running away as a teen, having four children (all adopted), and struggling with drugs, crime, and prostitution. She lived in both New York and California, using many fake names and Social Security numbers.
She tried to improve her life in the early 1980s, even going to college, but she was arrested and went to prison. After her release, she said she was going to visit family in Dallas, Texas, but she never arrived and was never heard from again.
One of her daughters is still looking for her, thinking she might have started a new life with a new identity. The police in San Diego and San Bernardino Counties are investigating, but the case is still unsolved.
