Barbara B. Blount, a 58-year-old widow, was last seen at her rural home in Holden, Louisiana, on the morning of May 2, 2008. A neighbor spoke with her by phone around 11:30 a.m.; she said she was cleaning kitchen cabinets. Later that day her nephew found the front door wide open and pots and pans stacked on the kitchen floor. Nothing of obvious value was missing. Barbara’s cell phone was on the floor with the battery removed.

About 4:15 p.m. that afternoon a silver Toyota Camry registered to Barbara was found abandoned a quarter mile from her home on a dirt logging road hidden by trees; the car keys were partially buried in the gravel nearby. A witness later described seeing a woman matching Barbara’s description by the car appearing frightened, with a white man and a white pickup truck also present. Heavy rains that began the day of her disappearance hampered the search. Despite extensive searches by law enforcement, the FBI, and volunteers, no trace of Barbara has been found and the case remains unsolved.

Did anyone in the area know of the white pickup truck, or have information about activity on that logging road on May 2, 2008?
