Yolanda Evette Panek was 21 and a mother when she was last seen checking into the Capri Motel in Portland, Oregon, on July 13, 1995, with her two-year-old son. The next morning her 1994 Dodge Spirit was found abandoned near a Greyhound station with the child locked inside; the car’s interior and trunk were stained with blood.

A motel maid found Yolanda’s second-floor room in disarray: both beds stripped, towels missing, and one mattress soaked with blood. A smear of blood was visible on the sidewalk below the room’s window. Blood-soaked linens, a cut electrical cord, and Yolanda’s shoes, socks, and tank top were recovered from the motel trash.

Investigators focused on her ex-boyfriend and the child’s father, Abdur Rashid Al-Wadud, also known as Darryl Devereaux. Authorities charged him with murder within a week; a jury later convicted him and he was sentenced to 25 years to life. Yolanda’s body has never been recovered, leaving her family without a burial.

If anyone knew Yolanda, her movements that week, or has information about the Capri Motel on July 13–14, please share what is known.
