Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP18213) and 7 other sources
Beverly Jean Ribley, a 29-year-old woman, disappeared from her home in Spring Valley, California, on April 27, 1975. That evening, she spoke to a friend on the phone around 10:30 p.m., which was the last time anyone heard from her. When authorities investigated her disappearance, they found her car parked at her home, but Beverly and her purse were missing. Her home showed signs of possible foul play, with bloodstains found on the carpet. At the time of her disappearance, Beverly was wearing a multicolored nightgown and had her brown leather purse with her.

Beverly's case raised suspicions due to the presence of blood and her sudden departure, which was uncharacteristic for her. She had been separated from her husband and was dating another man. Reports indicate that her boyfriend had previously broken into her home, although she wasn't present during that incident. Beverly was working as a beautician and at a stadium concession stand at the time. In 1987, her husband had her declared legally dead, primarily to sell their shared home. Despite efforts, her case remains unsolved, and no significant breakthroughs have occurred since her disappearance.

If anyone has information about her case, they are urged to contact the San Diego County Sheriff's Department.
