Sherie Ann Graves, 32, was last seen May 1, 1988, at a motel in Modesto, California. She and her husband had been living intermittently in trailer parks and motels in the Modesto area at the time. She is 5 feet 4 inches, about 105 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. Distinctive scars include a vertical scar on her back, a circular scar on her right knee, and a Cesarean section scar. She may also have used the last name Shepard.

Sherie was not reported missing until 1992 by her mother, a delay that affected early investigative momentum. Foul play is suspected, and DNA and other forensic materials have been collected, but no significant leads have emerged. The case remains open with the Stanislaus County Sheriff’s Department.

If anyone knew Sherie, her movements in Modesto, or has information that could help, please contact law enforcement.
