Robin Abrams, 28, was last seen the early evening of October 4, 1990, in Beecher, Illinois. The final known sighting was a brief wave exchanged with her father as their cars passed on Goodenow Road. She was driving a red 1989 Dodge Daytona hatchback and was wearing a white long-sleeved knit pullover, a black leather jacket, black slacks and black patent leather shoes, carrying a light beige patterned clutch purse.
Eleven hours after she was last seen, her car was found abandoned in Harvey, Illinois with the doors locked and her keys in the ignition. A witness later said two men in a tow truck dropped the car off around 10:00 p.m. That night; a neighbor reported a break-in of the vehicle the next morning. Three days later her purse was recovered a few blocks from where the car had been left. The checkbook stayed in the purse but her wallet and credit cards were missing.
Investigators focused on a contentious relationship with a married colleague, Anthony Marquez. Abrams had obtained an order of protection in November 1989, was fired two weeks before her probationary period ended, and filed a federal lawsuit in December 1989 alleging wrongful termination, sexual harassment and civil rights violations.
Does anyone have information about Abrams’s movements on October 4, 1990, or recall seeing that Dodge Daytona that night?
