- Details of Disappearance:
- One night in June 1986, Sherry and her daughter Johnna disappeared from their home in Richmond, Missouri. Sherry had been out playing cards, and Johnna had a date. Her husband, Ronald, claimed they ran off together, but this didn’t sit right with everyone.
What made it suspicious was that they left behind all their clothes and uncashed paychecks. Months before their disappearance, the family received threatening letters and experienced car vandalism. The FBI investigated, but the incidents stopped as soon as they got involved.
Ronald filed for divorce after they vanished, and although ordered to pay child support for Johnna, Sherry never received any of the money. Years later, in 2009, Ronald was arrested and charged with their murder. However, the charges were dropped in 2010 due to a key witness dying. The case remains unsolved, and while rumors circulated about their bodies being buried under a concrete slab at their home, this was proven false. Police strongly suspect foul play, but without bodies or definitive evidence, the mystery of Sherry and Johnna’s disappearance continues.
