Donna O’Dell Sumners, 25, vanished from her Brooksville, Florida apartment on the evening of February 1, 1994. She lived at the Candleglow Apartments with her husband, Monroe, and their five-year-old son. Two weeks before she disappeared Donna had told police Monroe had beaten her, causing hearing loss in one ear and visible bruises; she did not press charges and briefly stayed with family in Alabama before returning.

On the night she went missing Donna called her mother in Alabama asking for help and saying Monroe was trying to cut the phone line. Officers who responded were told Donna was fine, yet she disappeared soon after. Monroe reported she had taken $1,000 and left. Investigators suspected foul play after finding suspicious damage to Monroe’s vehicle and because it was uncharacteristic for Donna to leave without contacting her family or son. The probe stalled after Monroe died by suicide in 1995. Donna has never been found.

Does anyone who knew Donna or the Candleglow Apartments in early 1994 have information that could help explain what happened?
