Pamela June Ray, 36, of Atlanta disappeared on August 12, 1992, while on a short family trip to Panama City Beach, Florida. After arriving around 3:30 a.m., she could not find a motel room and parked at the Wilhite Apartments. She left her two children asleep in the car with her purse and keys and walked toward the pool area. Witnesses reported seeing her followed by an unidentified man shortly before screams were heard; she was never seen again.

Authorities and family launched searches, distributed flyers and offered a reward, but no significant clues turned up. A man matching the witness description was later arrested for a different crime, though no definitive link to Pamela’s disappearance was established. Years later convicted murderer Mark Riebe confessed to abducting and killing Pamela at knifepoint, then later recanted; investigators say his original confession included details reportedly not publicly known, such as Pamela holding a key when last seen. No physical evidence has tied anyone to the case.

The disappearance remains open and foul play is strongly suspected. Does anyone have information about Pamela’s movements in Panama City Beach on August 12, 1992, or recall seeing someone matching the description of the man seen with her?
