Amelia Martinez Smith, 51, went missing on February 3, 2000, from Weatherford, Texas, under suspicious circumstances. She was last seen leaving her job at a taxi company in Irving, Texas, around 10:00 p.m., after which she presumably returned to her trailer home in Weatherford. Early the next morning, at approximately 4:00 a.m., her home was found engulfed in flames. Additionally, investigators discovered that someone had attempted to set fire to her vehicle, which was located nearby.
Although the fire completely destroyed her home, no remains were found, and there was no immediate evidence that Amelia had been inside during the fire. Authorities suspect foul play in her disappearance, as arson was involved, and extensive searches in the area yielded no clues to her whereabouts.
Over the years, investigators have considered several leads, including a possible connection to Jeffrey Allan Maxwell, a man later convicted of kidnapping and assaulting a woman under similar circumstances. However, no direct link between Maxwell and Amelia has been established. Amelia’s case remains unsolved, and she has not been heard from since that night in February 2000.Last Seen: Feb 3, 2000
