Theresa ’Terry’ Rideout was 36 and living in Chandler, Indiana, when she disappeared after finishing a shift at a Burger King in Evansville on September 2, 1994. She completed the nightly business deposit, then vanished. A friend reported her missing on September 11 after she failed to show up for work and could not be located. Theresa’s personal items, including an uncashed paycheck, remained at home; her dog River was also missing. She did not have use of her own car and was believed to be driving her fiancé Jack Barnett’s red pickup truck.

On September 10, 1994, Barnett was found dead by a self-inflicted gunshot in a Mount Vernon motel room; he had checked in alone and the red pickup was at the scene. A note was found but made no mention of Theresa. Investigators saw the close timing as suggestive of a connection and strongly suspected foul play, though no crime scene or remains were ever located. Theresa was legally declared deceased in August 2002, but she is still listed as a missing person and the investigation remains open.

Does anyone have information about Theresa, River the dog, or the red pickup truck from that time?
