Susan DeQuina was 22 and a mother of two when she disappeared from Lynn, Massachusetts, on October 3, 1979. That evening she left her home with her boyfriend, Michele Gagnon, reportedly to buy a refrigerator; she had arranged for a neighbor to babysit the children. Several people were reportedly in the apartment before they left together at about 6 p.m. Gagnon returned hours later but Susan never did.

Susan’s car was found abandoned and burned in Saugus. Weeks after her disappearance, Gagnon’s roommate Robert Garbino was found murdered and dismembered: his torso was discovered near where Susan’s burned car had been left and other body parts were recovered from the shared residence. Gagnon was later found dead of a gunshot wound in a death initially ruled a suicide, though authorities have expressed skepticism. Authorities believe Susan was likely murdered; her remains have not been found and the case was reopened in 2011.

Did anyone in Lynn in 1979 see Susan leaving with Michele Gagnon or have information about the people who were in the apartment that evening?
