Four details stand out in the disappearance of 14-year-old Sondra Ramber from Santa Fe, Texas, on October 26, 1983. Her father reported her missing the next morning after they had breakfast together; when he returned home that evening the front door was open and biscuits were still baking in the oven. Authorities initially classified her as a runaway, but the case lacked evidence to support that finding and soon grew cold.

Over the years there have been unproven links to the Texas Killing Fields, but investigators say no evidence connects Sondra to those crimes. Detectives reopened the case more recently and searched a garage on the property where she once lived after an outside agency provided statements. Texas EquuSearch assisted in drilling and excavating the concrete floor; records show the garage likely had a dirt floor in 1983 and concrete was poured in 1984. The search produced no significant evidence, no arrests have been made, and no suspects have been publicly identified.

Anyone who knew Sondra, lived in Santa Fe in 1983, or has information about that property is asked to come forward.
