On a warm evening in Kentucky, 31-year-old Sandra 'Sandy' Fisher disappeared after attending the Russell County Fair. She was last seen at the fairgrounds at approximately 10:00 p.m. on August 3, 1978. Earlier that evening, Sandra, a mother of two, had arranged for a friend to look after her children so she could enjoy a night out with her own friends at the fair. An arrangement had been made for her parents to meet her at a specific time, but Sandra never arrived for the rendezvous.
She has not been seen or heard from since that night.
Following her failure to meet them, her vehicle was discovered parked near the fairgrounds. Inside the locked trunk of the car, investigators found her purse which contained her wallet and identification. This discovery was particularly troubling to her family. In the two years prior to her disappearance, Sandra had a history of leaving for a few weeks at a time with a traveling carnival, but she had always returned. However, this time felt different to her loved ones, prompting them to file a missing persons report when she did not come back.
At the time she went missing, Sandra was described as a white female, 5'4' tall and weighing 150 pounds, with blue eyes and pierced ears. Her shoulder-length brown hair had been dyed blonde and was growing out, possibly leaving her with blonde tips. She also wore eyeglasses. The investigation into her disappearance has been handled by the Kentucky State Police, and foul play is suspected. For decades, her daughter has continued to search for answers in her mother's case. Despite the passage of time, the case of Sandra Flynn Fisher remains unsolved, a lingering mystery that began with a night at a county fair.Last Seen: Aug 3, 1978
