Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP94225) and 2 other sources
Ruby Curley, a 46-year-old woman from Dallas, Texas, was last seen on December 19, 1989. At the time of her disappearance, there were signs indicating possible foul play, but details remain sparse, and her case has yet to be resolved. Ruby stood about 4'11" tall, weighed around 137 pounds, and had long, wavy brown hair and brown eyes. When she disappeared, she was reportedly wearing a white mink coat, white boots, and a nightgown, with a possibility of gold teeth being one of her distinguishing features.

Curley's case has remained unsolved for decades, with little new evidence or leads emerging over the years. Cold case detectives in Dallas continue to review cases like hers, often employing advances in forensic technology to reevaluate old evidence. Despite these efforts, Ruby's disappearance is still an open case, with her family and the authorities hoping that renewed public attention might bring forward any new information that could lead to answers.
