- Details of Disappearance:
- In February 2001, two people, Smith and his girlfriend Maureen Webb, vanished from Springfield, Missouri. Maureen was last seen driving her van, which was later found abandoned.
Years later, in 2006, Richard and Thenia Evans were arrested and charged with murdering Smith and Webb. The police believed the couple had been shot, their bodies cut up, possibly fed to pigs, and burned. Evidence like bone fragments and a bullet casing were found on Richard Evans’ property.
However, the case against the Evanses collapsed when a key witness wouldn’t give testimony. Even though the circumstances strongly suggest foul play, Smith and Webb’s bodies were never found.
