Debra Debbie Lucas, a mother of four from Louisville, Kentucky, disappeared in the late hours of September 26, 2010. She was last seen by her boyfriend shortly before 1:00 a.m. near 4th Street and the 300 block of M Street, an area close to her home and near Churchill Downs. Witnesses reported seeing her get into a large, dark-colored 1990 Chevrolet Caprice, and she made a final phone call telling her boyfriend she was on her way home.

Her family reported her missing on September 27, 2010, after she failed to make the regular contact they expected. The Louisville Metro Police Department investigated, and a year later the case was moved to the homicide unit. Investigators pursued the limited leads available, including the description of the dark-colored car, but those lines of inquiry went cold. Years of signs-of-life checks and public pleas by her mother Beverly Steitz and daughter Kelly Pinnick produced no confirmed trace.

Debra’s family later sought legal closure, and a detective testified that she was presumed dead due to a complete lack of activity since her disappearance. The case remains unresolved. If anyone has information about Debra’s movements on the night of September 26, 2010, or remembers seeing a dark-colored 1990 Chevrolet Caprice in the area, please come forward.
