On the evening of December 5, 1990, Dolly Ann Thomas-Caulder, 30, spoke to her mother and said she was walking home from a friend’s house and expected to arrive within an hour. She never made it home and that call was the last time the family heard from her. The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department classified her as an endangered missing person and opened an investigation, but the case produced few clues and no significant leads.

Dolly was described as a white female, 5 feet 4 inches tall, about 120 pounds, with black hair, brown eyes, and a small rose tattoo on her left breast. Her disappearance has been entered into national missing-persons databases and the case remains open.

Very little is known about what happened after that last phone call. If anyone knew Dolly, saw her that night, or has information that could help, please come forward.
