Rhonda Joy Baucom was 29 and living in Charlotte, North Carolina, when she disappeared in late May 1987. Described by family as a homebody who would not leave without telling anyone, she was last seen at her apartment in a complex in the 3100 block of Central Avenue. Rhonda is 5 feet 4 inches and about 120 pounds, with brown hair and blue eyes. She was reported missing to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department on May 26, 1987, and from the start her disappearance was treated as suspicious because it was so out of character.

Few details have emerged since her vanishing. Her sister Paula Forest, a former police officer, has been among those advocating for answers and has said the family feels the case did not receive the attention it deserved. The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department has kept the investigation open, but the passage of time has left the family without closure.

Did anyone in Charlotte around Central Avenue in May 1987 remember Rhonda or see anything unusual that week?
