Ann Mineko Racz, 42, was last seen April 22, 1991, in Newhall, California. That evening she dropped off her three children at the home of her estranged husband, John Racz, and said she would return with hamburgers. She never returned and her car was found three days later near the Van Nuys Airport with no sign of her.

At the time Ann disappeared she was in a contentious divorce and custody battle with John, a former sheriff’s deputy. Friends and family reported she feared him; a neighbor said they saw John follow her after she left for the restaurant. Investigators suspected foul play early on, but no body was ever recovered and the case went cold for more than a decade.

In 2006 John Racz was charged in connection with Ann’s disappearance and in 2007 he was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to 25 years to life; he has maintained his innocence and Ann’s remains have not been found. Does anyone have information about where Ann might have gone after she left that evening or about sightings near Van Nuys Airport in late April 1991?
