Stephanie C. Gibson, 48, was last seen in the early hours of July 8, 1995, leaving Memories Tavern in Peoria, Illinois, at about 2:30 a.m. She was with Arlie Ray Davis and was riding in his light blue, four-door 1979 Dodge Dart, license plates MMJ 296. At the time she lived on the 600 block of Voris Street. Gibson had graying brown hair, green eyes, a broken-heart tattoo on her upper left arm and was known to have a mental disability. She was wearing a tight-fitting black blouse with diamond-shaped designs, black spandex pants, black sneakers and earrings.

Davis later said they drove to Kingston Mines, Illinois, but investigators found no evidence to support that claim. In the late 1990s Davis was convicted of murdering another Illinois woman and sentenced to death; reports from prostitutes in Peoria in the early 1990s said Davis had a pattern of strangling and beating them. Davis maintained his innocence in the missing-woman cases and died of a heart attack on death row in October 2002, five days before a scheduled clemency hearing. Several unidentified female bodies have been found in the Peoria area but none have been linked to these disappearances.

Stephanie Gibson remains missing. If anyone knew her movements the night of July 8, 1995, or saw the described Dodge Dart, please come forward with information.
