Ashley Reed was 19 and living in Garland, Texas, when she was last seen on January 14, 1990, and reported missing the next day. She had planned to meet two men identified only as Dave and Robert at an IHOP in Dallas near the LBJ Freeway and Military Parkway. A witness said they saw her talking with a man matching a distinct description at the restaurant, but she was never heard from again after that night.

The following morning Ashley’s brown 1984 Chevrolet Citation was found abandoned on a freeway ramp about a quarter mile from the IHOP. The hazard lights were on and the battery was drained; the driver’s seat was pushed forward as she typically kept it. Her purse and keys were missing. Two fishermen later reported finding a purse near the Trinity River, but police were unable to locate it when they checked.

Ashley had recently moved to Texas from Minnesota, where she had been an honor student planning to study pre-law. Investigators suspect foul play and continue to treat the disappearance as an abduction. Did anyone who knew Ashley or who was in the IHOP area that night see anything that could help explain what happened?
