Carol Kresge Dearment, 36, was last seen in Troy, Michigan, on the night of October 26, 1983, after leaving a boyfriend’s apartment between 11:00 and 11:45 p.m. Her 1981 Buick was later found in the driveway at her Wentworth Place home with the keys in the ignition and her purse and eyeglasses on the front seat. Clothing, money, and other personal items were left inside the house, and she did not leave a note for her three children, which was said to be out of character.

Carol was in the midst of a bitter divorce from husband Donald Dearment, who was 21 years her senior; friends and court filings described the marriage as controlling and abusive. Investigators later found bloodstains matching Carol’s blood type on a sofa in the home and in the trunk of Donald’s 1978 Mercedes, and authorities treated Donald as a suspect. He died of cancer in 1986 and refused to speak to detectives before his death.

Does anyone have memories or information about Carol, her neighborhood on Wentworth Place, or that 1981 Buick from late 1983?
