Susan Smalley Missing Person Case

Susan Smalley, aged 18, went missing on March 20, 1988, from Carrollton, Texas, along with her friend Stacie Madison. The two high school seniors had spent the night at Susan’s home before leaving together in Stacie's 1967 green and gold Mustang. They were last seen in the early morning hours after visiting the Steak and Ale restaurant where Susan worked. Witnesses reported seeing them trying to purchase beer at a 7-Eleven earlier that night, but they were refused service due to their age.

The next day, Stacie’s Mustang was found abandoned at a strip mall in Dallas. The car was locked, and their personal belongings were still inside, but there was no trace of the girls. Despite extensive searches and numerous leads over the years, including a suspicious confession from Stacie’s boyfriend (which he later recanted), no significant breakthroughs have been made.

Both families were left devastated, and while foul play is strongly suspected, the mystery of what happened to Susan and Stacie remains unsolved. Their disappearance continues to be an active cold case, with law enforcement encouraging anyone with information to come forward.
Last Seen: Mar 20, 1988
