Alice Kristina Hummel, 46, vanished from her home on Alabama Hill in Bellingham, Washington, with the last confirmed sighting on October 6, 1990. A former teacher living with disabling lupus, she lived with her husband Bruce Allen Hummel and two of their three children at the time. Days before she disappeared, Alice’s youngest daughter, then 12, told her that Bruce had been sexually abusing her for years; Alice reportedly told her daughter she would take care of it.

After Alice vanished, Bruce gave their children changing explanations — that she had taken a job in California, moved to Texas, or was with another man who did not want children around. For a while the children received mail signed with Alice’s name, but the correspondence eventually stopped and investigators were unable to locate Alice or find evidence she had started a new life. Later inquiries uncovered that Bruce had been forging Alice’s signature to collect her disability pension payments after she went missing. Alice’s body has never been found and the case remains unresolved.

Did anyone in Bellingham around 1990 recall seeing Alice, her car, or mail addressed to her after October 1990?
