Suzanne Marie Schultz was 17 and living in Black Earth, Wisconsin, when she left her family’s residence in December 1978. She later contacted her family from Tampa, Florida, in July 1979 and was reported to be staying with a man named Stephen Lund, who was also missing. Lund had told his family he would return to Illinois by July 4, 1979, and Suzanne had planned to be back with her family by August 4, 1979; neither showed up and neither has been seen or heard from since.

In September 1979 a U-Haul trailer connected to Suzanne and Stephen was found abandoned in Chicago, Illinois, a discovery that deepened investigators’ suspicions of foul play. Suzanne was described as 5 feet 6 inches, about 120 pounds, with brown hair and green eyes, and she sometimes used the names Sue or Susan. Few substantial leads have emerged and the case remains unsolved.

Anyone who knew Suzanne, Stephen Lund, their movements in late 1978 through 1979, or who has information about the abandoned U-Haul is asked to come forward.
