- Details of Disappearance:
- Adam disappeared on April 29, 1993. She was last seen at 4:30 AM at a convenience store in Salina, Kansas. Adam drove a white Ford van with “She has Legg’s” (a hosiery company she worked for) painted on the side.
The next day, her van was found abandoned, covered in mud outside and soaked in blood inside. It had been driven 60 miles to a place nobody could explain.
Police also found a lot of blood and bullet fragments in Adam’s storage unit, where she picked up her work supplies each day. It looked like someone had tried to clean up the unit. The door was left open.
Investigators think Adam was attacked in the storage unit while loading her van. They believe the attacker knew her and her routine. Adam was separated from her husband and going through a divorce at the time. Her daughter reported her missing.
The police believe Adam is likely dead, but her body has never been found. The case is still unsolved.
