Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP3167) and 3 other sources
Edward Blane Russell, age 29, was last seen on April 1, 1990, in Union Park, Florida, near Orlando. On the evening of his disappearance, Russell was riding in a red Chevrolet Camaro or Pontiac Firebird along Colonial Drive with a woman known only as "Teresa." He has not been seen or heard from since.

Russell lived in the 8500 block of East Colonial Drive in Orlando at the time of his disappearance. He was last seen wearing a white country western shirt, blue jeans, and cowboy boots. He had a history of drug abuse, and authorities have few details about what happened to him after that night. Despite extensive searches, no further information about his whereabouts has emerged, and his case remains unsolved.
