Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP86273) and 1 other source
Randall Emery, 27 years old at the time of his disappearance, was last seen on January 16, 1989, in Grand Prairie, Texas. Despite the extensive time that has passed since his disappearance, there have been no significant developments or new information regarding his case. Emery was listed in missing persons databases, and law enforcement continues to appeal for any information that could shed light on what happened to him.

Randall was described as being approximately 5'8" tall and weighing around 140 pounds, with brown hair. Unfortunately, few details about the circumstances of his disappearance have been publicly released, making the case particularly challenging for investigators. His case remains open as authorities continue to seek any leads that might provide answers.

If you have any information regarding Randall Emery's disappearance, authorities encourage you to come forward and assist in the ongoing investigation.
