Stephanie Lynn Douglas was 25 and a mother of three when she disappeared from her Sesame Street apartment in McMinnville, Oregon, on the night of November 27, 1990. That evening she had tucked her children and a visiting niece into bed; her husband, Stanley Douglas, was at work. A neighbor later reported seeing her leave, and Stephanie allegedly said she was going to help someone dig up marijuana in the woods. Her car was found the next morning in a department store lot; unlike other vehicles, it was free of frost as if driven there more recently.

The disappearance was later linked in investigators minds to the killing of Stephanie’s best friend, June Cross; Cross’s remains were found in January 1991 and Harold Stookey was convicted of Cross’s murder. Stookey denied involvement in Stephanie’s case and was never charged in it. Over the years investigators examined others, including Stephanie’s husband Stanley, who reportedly had a history of abuse and failed a polygraph but had an alibi, plus Larry Shipley and Scott Cox.

Does anyone who lived in McMinnville at the time remember the night of November 27, 1990, or have information about Stephanie’s movements or the people she was in contact with that night?
