On a summer day in Florida, 67-year-old Cindi Lee Zona disappeared from her home in Polk City. It was June 6, 2026, when she was last seen leaving her residence in a vehicle. At the time of her departure, she was wearing blue jeans, shiny sandals, and carrying a brown purse. Her sudden absence prompted a response from the Polk County Sheriff's Office, who initiated an investigation into her disappearance.
