Floy Jean Bennett, known as Jeanie, was 36 when she vanished from her Beaverton, Oregon home. The last reported sighting was the evening of February 23, 1978. She was 5 feet 8 inches, about 120 pounds, with hazel eyes and brown hair she had dyed blonde, and worked as a Multnomah County court reporter.
Her husband, Robert Bob Bennett, said she went shopping and never returned; their leased car surfaced in the driveway five days later with some clothes and suitcases missing, and Bob filed for divorce two weeks after she was last seen. Around the same time, a recent $90,000 inheritance disappeared from her bank account and has never been recovered. Jeanie never collected her final paycheck, and there has been no activity on her Social Security number, bank accounts, or credit cards since her disappearance.
Bob Bennett later pleaded guilty in 1989 to second-degree murder in an unrelated killing, but he has not been publicly named as a suspect in Jeanie’s disappearance. The investigation remains open and many believe she was a victim of homicide.
If anyone knew Jeanie, her routines, or saw her car around February 23, 1978, please share information.
