Vera Faye Martin, 62, disappeared in October 1987 while under the care of Dorothea Puente at a boarding house in Sacramento, California. Puente ran a boarding house where tenants were vulnerable due to age or disability; investigators later found multiple bodies buried on the property after Puente’s arrest in 1988.

Puente’s crimes were uncovered in November 1988 during an investigation into the disappearance of another tenant, Bert Montoya, which led to the discovery of remains on the property. Puente was arrested in 1988 and later convicted and sentenced to life without parole. The circumstances of Martin’s disappearance remain unclear from available details.

Did anyone who knew Vera Faye Martin or her whereabouts in 1987 ever come forward with information?
