The male trucker eventually parked his car in the lot and got out while Angela was still on the phone.
She described him as “dirty looking,” donning a pair of overalls, glasses, and a full mustache and beard, according to Rob.
Then, out of nowhere, Rob heard his fiancée scream on the other end of the phone. He quickly left his family’s house and began racing to the payphone in town when he saw the green truck passing by.
Rob claims he had heard a female voice scream out, “Rob!” and he immediately whipped the car around.
But, the sharp U-turn was too much for Rob’s transmission to handle, and after about two miles of chasing the green truck, his car stalled out.
Following Angela’s abduction, law enforcement launched an intense investigation and ultimately cleared Rob of any involvement in his fiancé’s disappearance.
Additionally, some community members did admit to seeing a green truck suspiciously lurking in town for a few days before the night of Angela’s disappearance.
Nonetheless, authorities followed up on countless leads regarding the truck and other potential suspects but have been unable to solve the case for over thirty years now.
But, in April of last year, the Clinton Missouri Police Department did publicly announce new details about the cold case on Facebook– providing the community with a glimmer of hope that justice may soon be served.
According to the department, a confidential informant had been working in Clinton, Missouri, to disrupt an illegal narcotics operation in early 1991.
The informant’s identity was eventually disclosed after he testified in court, and, afterward, he received “a cryptic letter composed of cut and paste characters in the style of a ransom letter one might see in a movie.”
