Kimberlee Ann Mallard, a 22-year-old woman, was last seen on October 2, 1996, in El Paso, Texas. On the day of her disappearance, Kimberlee went to work as usual at Can-Do Dog Grooming on Fairbanks Drive, arriving at 7:00 a.m. She had plans to meet her stepfather for lunch but missed the appointment without contacting him. After finishing work around 1:00 p.m., Kimberlee walked to the corner of Dyer Street and McCombs Street to catch a bus home.
Witnesses saw her at the bus stop, but investigators believe she never boarded a bus.
Kimberlee suffered from clinical depression and a learning disorder, which could affect her ability to communicate clearly. She required medication to manage her condition, and it is unclear if she had her prescription with her at the time of her disappearance. Kimberlee was last seen wearing a blue t-shirt, blue jeans, white sneakers, and carrying a blue fanny pack. Despite multiple investigations, her case remains unsolved, and she has not been seen since that day.
Authorities continue to treat her case as endangered due to her medical conditions, and they suspect foul play. Kimberlee's family, along with law enforcement, continues to seek any information that could provide leads in this decades-old mystery.Last Seen: Oct 2, 1996
