Dorothy Jean Richardson, 21, disappeared from Abilene, Texas, on June 30, 1981. She was last seen leaving her home on foot after an argument with her husband; her car was inoperable and remained at the residence.

Her disappearance has been treated as suspicious and foul play is suspected, but very few details have emerged and the case remains unsolved. The case is listed as endangered missing, and family and police continue to seek information. Anyone who knew Dorothy or has information about her whereabouts is asked to contact the Abilene Police Department.
