Amber Scholz, a 21-year-old woman from Rock Springs, Wyoming, disappeared in the early morning hours of November 8, 1981. The previous evening, she attended a party with her boyfriend and another friend. Amber left the party around 3:00 a.m. and was last seen being dropped off at her apartment at Plaza Court on Dewar Drive by a friend around 3:30 a.m. After that, she was never seen again.
When her father could not reach her later that day, he reported her missing.
Investigators found no signs of a struggle or forced entry in her apartment. Her purse, wallet, and an uncashed payroll check were left in the kitchen, and her watch was in the bathroom. It appeared that Amber had been working on her monthly budget before she disappeared. Her car, a white 1971 Oldsmobile, was also missing.
At the time of her disappearance, Amber was involved in a custody battle over her young son with her ex-boyfriend. While it remains unclear if this legal matter is connected to her disappearance, no solid leads have emerged despite investigations spanning decades. Amber's case remains unsolved, and her family continues to seek answers.Last Seen: Nov 8, 1981
