- Details of Disappearance:
- Lyle vanished in early May 2020. Her family, worried because she wasn’t answering calls and her mailbox was full, asked police to check on her on May 3rd. Police found her at home, seemingly okay, but she still didn’t contact her family.
On May 5th, a property manager, at the family’s request, found Lyle in bed, acting unusually. That same night, neighbors saw her leave in her car and she never returned.
Using her joint bank account with her mother, the family tracked her movements:
* **May 6th:** Gas station in Lake Pana, Florida.
* **May 7th:** Checked into a hotel in LaBelle, Florida, but left the next morning.
* **May 8th:** Bought gas in Jasper, Florida (her last known debit card use). She was also seen at a Walgreens in Jacksonville, Florida.Two weeks later, her white 2013 Toyota Yaris was found abandoned in a Jacksonville shopping plaza – the same plaza as the Walgreens she visited on May 8th. Security footage shows her entering the store; she looked much older and wasn’t wearing her usual head covering.
Lyle may have been heading to see her mother in Clewiston, Florida, or her sister’s old home in Orange Park, Florida. She was a UCF graduate, a devout Christian youth leader, and didn’t drink or date. She had a good job in retail before disappearing.
Her phone is missing, and her case remains unsolved. Her family is baffled, as she was a responsible person who wouldn’t ignore them for so long.
