Tammy Lynn Leppert was 18 when she vanished from Cocoa Beach, Florida, on July 6, 1983. A successful pageant competitor and an emerging model and actress who had appeared in films such as Spring Break and Scarface, she had reportedly begun showing escalating paranoia in the weeks before she disappeared. Family and friends said she feared someone was trying to kill her, refused food she hadn’t prepared, and isolated herself after an allegedly traumatic incident at a Hollywood party.

On the day she vanished she left home with a male friend identified as Keith Roberts. Roberts says they argued and he dropped her at a parking lot near the Glass Bank building; surveillance footage shows her alone in the area and she made frantic, unanswered phone calls to her aunt. She was last seen wearing a blue denim skirt, a blue shirt with floral appliqués and carrying a gray purse; some reports say she may have been barefoot.

Investigators have explored possible links to known killers active in Florida at the time and family members have suggested she may have had knowledge of local drug activity, but no definitive evidence has connected those leads to her disappearance and no arrests have been made. Her fate remains unknown.

Did anyone in Cocoa Beach at the time remember seeing Tammy near the Glass Bank on July 6, 1983, or have information about her contacts in the weeks before she vanished?
