28 Years Ago She Disappeared And Then Her Van Was Found Covered In Her Blood

Salina, Kansas. Back in 1993, 33-year-old Kathryn Adam was separated from her husband and going through a divorce.

She was living in Salina along with their teenage daughter, who was 16-years-old, and Kathryn worked for a pantyhose company called L’eggs selling their pantyhose to various clients.

As part of Kathryn’s job, she drove a white company van that had blue lettering across the side which read, “She has Legg’s.”

Kathryn also rented a storage unit, where she kept all of the pantyhose that she sold to her clients.

Kathryn routinely would head to her storage unit and get the pantyhose that her clients ordered, load it into her company van, and then drop her orders off.

On the night of April 29th, 1993, Kathryn hopped into her company van and drove it to a local gas station called the Kwik Trip, located on Salina’s West Crawford Street.

One of the cameras at the gas station captured the last few moments that Kathryn was seen, and after that, she vanished.

When she failed to return home that evening, her daughter reported her as missing.

The evening after Kathryn was last spotted at the gas station, her van was located at a restaurant on West Point Boulevard.

It was 5:45 that night when her van was found, and the strange thing is that the restaurant where her van was found was not open at that point in time because it was being redone.

Kathryn’s blood was found all over the inside of her company van, and there was mud across the exterior of her van.

Police also recovered an enormous amount of Kathryn’s blood at her storage unit where she kept the pantyhose from her company, leading them to believe something terrible had to have happened to her.

Another key detail that led authorities to believe someone did something awful to Kathryn is the fact that the door to her storage unit was found to be open, so it seemed that Kathryn was snuck up on while putting pantyhose into her van.

The Salina Police Department does suspect that Kathryn was murdered, but she has never been found and it’s now been 28 years since she disappeared without a trace.

At the time of her disappearance, Kathryn weighed 120 pounds and stood at 5’4″. She had brown eyes and brown hair and wore glasses.

If you have any idea what happened to Kathryn, the Salina Police Department is asking that you call them at 785.826.7210.
