Rita Mae Hughes, a 29-year-old woman, was last seen on December 8, 1986, at the Trailways Bus Station in Houston, Texas. Her husband had dropped her off at the station so she could catch a bus to visit relatives in Louisiana. According to reports, Hughes appeared to be upset, crying, and acting irrationally when her husband last saw her. However, she never arrived at her intended destination and has not been seen or heard from since.
Hughes lived in Magnolia, Texas, at the time of her disappearance. Her mother reported her missing on December 19, 1986, after Hughes failed to make contact with any family members. Investigators suspect foul play in her case, but no conclusive evidence has surfaced to determine what exactly happened to her. Over the years, authorities have continued to seek information regarding Hughes' whereabouts, and DNA from her family has been submitted to national databases in the hopes of finding a match or clue that could lead to solving this cold case.
Her disappearance remains a mystery, and anyone with information is urged to contact the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office or the Texas Department of Public Safety.Last Seen: Dec 8, 1986
