Does anyone else find it peculiar that Roberto's truck was found abandoned near Southwest 186th Street and South Dixie Highway? That spot seems kind of off the beaten path if he was just planning to run errands and see a friend. I know it's been decades, but has anyone ever looked into who lived or worked in that area back in 1985? Maybe he was meeting someone or possibly found himself in the wrong place at the wrong time. I also wonder if there were any other unsolved cases or suspicious activity reported around that area during the same period. There might be some connections or clues everyone missed all these years. Would love to hear your thoughts!
I’ve been reading a lot about Roberto Franco’s case and something that stands out is his truck being found so eerily close to such a busy area, but with no sign of him nearby. It makes me wonder if someone might have followed him and then abandoned the vehicle there to throw people off. Also, the fact that he was planning to visit a friend makes me curious about who this friend was and if there was ever any statement from them. Anyone know if the friend was ever identified or had an alibi? I feel like vehicles being found abandoned often hold more clues than we realize at first. Thoughts?
Hi everyone,
I wanted to talk about the details surrounding the discovery of Roberto Franco’s truck. It was found abandoned just a few days after he was last seen, near Southwest 186th Street and South Dixie Highway. Does anyone else find it strange that there didn’t seem to be any personal items or obvious signs of struggle in the vehicle? I can’t help but wonder if someone else drove it there or if it was just left as a decoy. Also, that location isn't really close to the bakery or where his friend supposedly lived. It seems like such a random spot, doesn't it?
Does anyone here know that area of Miami well? Was it known for any suspicious activity back in the 1980s? I’m curious if maybe the location where the truck was left might offer some clues or insights we’re missing.
Any thoughts or ideas?
