Janeth Ann Rowe, 50, vanished from her condominium in Herndon, Virginia, after being last seen on March 2, 1997. She lived in the Crescent at Worldgate complex with her 20-year-old daughter, Lisa; Janeth’s mother and sister lived just down the hall. When Lisa could not find her the next day, a report was made and investigators found no obvious signs of struggle or theft. Janeth’s car remained in the garage and her personal effects were left behind.

Janeth was a widow who had been laid off from Mobil about eight months before she disappeared and had recently taken a consulting job. She had a leg condition that made walking difficult, which some observers note could have limited her ability to travel on her own. The Herndon Police Department and the FBI entered the case into national databases but developed no significant leads; authorities have not named any suspects.

Family views differ about her fate. Janeth’s mother and sister believe she is deceased. Does anyone who knew Janeth or the building in 1997 have information that could help the investigation?
