Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP97973) and 5 other sources
Sandra Yeoman, 12 years old at the time, went missing on May 28, 1974, in Thonotosassa, Florida. She was last seen leaving her home around 8:30 AM to head toward her school bus stop, but she never made it onto the bus or to school that day. Her disappearance was reported when she did not return home after school, and her family became concerned. Despite extensive searches, no significant clues about Sandra's whereabouts have surfaced in the decades since she went missing.

Sandra's case has remained unsolved for nearly 50 years, and it is now considered a cold case. The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office continues to investigate, and her family is still seeking answers. Her sisters, Iris and Roxanne, have been vocal in keeping her memory alive, participating in efforts like the "Unfinished Business" podcast to raise awareness. They have also called for anyone with a photograph or information about Sandra to come forward, as they seek closure after so many years.

Despite the time that has passed, authorities continue to appeal to the public for help in resolving Sandra's disappearance, and her case remains open.
