Debra Lee Landsdell, 29, vanished after leaving her boyfriend’s home in Belen, New Mexico at about 2:00 a.m. on September 21, 1985. Newly divorced and recently hired as a nurse at the Lovelace Urgent Care Center in Albuquerque, she lived alone on Jarales Road and drove a 1978 rust-colored Porsche 924. She never returned to her apartment and failed to show for work for two days, prompting a missing persons report.

Investigators found her front door ajar but the apartment undisturbed; nothing appeared missing. Both Debra and her Porsche were gone. In February 1986 the Porsche was recovered parked at an Albuquerque apartment complex in the 1500 block of Gold southeast; it had dents, scratches and dark-colored stains in the backseat that were tested and found not to be blood. No forensic evidence tied the car to foul play. The case was reportedly reopened in 1988 and unidentified remains found in the area were later ruled not to be hers. Foul play is suspected, but the disappearance remains unsolved.

If anyone knew Debra, her movements on the night of September 21, 1985, or saw that Porsche in late 1985 or early 1986, please come forward with information.
