Diane Faye Chorba was 30 and six months pregnant when she was last seen in the Luther, Michigan, area on May 24, 1979. A mother to a teenage daughter and a young son, she maintained contact with family that day but then disappeared; her family reported her missing on July 20, 1979. She was five feet six inches, about 120 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes, pierced ears, and was reportedly wearing jeans, slip-on tennis shoes, and a reddish-brown leather trench coat. Her listed belongings included a pacifier.

Investigators later focused on Clarence Oliver Ollie Bean Jr., who initially told them Diane had gone to Chicago and died aboard American Airlines Flight 191 on May 25, 1979. Her name did not appear among the crash victims. In 1999 Bean’s then-wife Judy told police Bean had returned home without Diane on May 24, 1979, admitted he had killed her, and drove Judy to a remote area near Bristol, Michigan, to show her Diane’s body before burying it. Bean was arrested and in August 2001 a jury found him guilty of second-degree murder; he was sentenced to prison. Diane’s remains have never been found and her family has not been able to provide her a burial.

Did anyone in the Luther or Bristol area know Diane or remember unusual activity around late May 1979?
