**The Mysterious Case of Cynthia Coleman’s Disappearance**
Hi everyone,
I've been diving into the case of Cynthia Dyann Coleman lately, and something that really puzzles me is the timeline of the day she went missing. She was last seen on September 3rd, 1986, and it's noted she left home around 11:00 a.m. to give away a litter of kittens. What caught my attention is the fact that her brother’s friend confirmed giving her a ride only partway back home. It's curious to me why she would only get a partial ride, especially considering she was seven months pregnant at the time.
Did she plan to meet someone? Or did she hope to hitch a ride the rest of the way? Given her condition, not completing the journey seems odd unless there was an unexpected change of plans. It's also interesting to note that her personal items, like her purse and cigarettes, were left behind – suggesting she intended to return home soon after her errand.
Considering all this, it seems like a pivotal detail in unraveling this case... Why was she unable to make it home? And why the delay in reporting her missing? These gaps make the timeline a critical aspect to examine. If anyone here has more information or theories about who she might have met or why she didn’t make it back home, it would be amazing to hear your thoughts.
I'm hopeful that with more people delving into these details, someone might recall something that could provide new insights. Let’s keep Cynthia and her family in our thoughts while we continue to seek the truth.

You can file a California Public Records Act (CPRA) request. Here's how:

  • Visit the San Diego County Sheriff's Department Records and ID Division.
  • Submit a written request asking for “any available public records related to the investigation into the disappearance of Cynthia Dyann Coleman (DOB if known or last seen on Sept 3, 1986).”
  • Be clear and respectful in your request; mention it’s for informational or advocacy purposes.

Hope that helped. :)


I've been thinking a lot about Cynthia Dyann Coleman's case and what really baffles me is the timeline. She was last seen on September 3rd, but her mom didn't report her missing until five days later. I know there can be a lot of reasons for a delay like that, but in Cynthia’s case, she was pregnant and already had a young daughter at home. It seems unusual not to have followed up sooner given those circumstances. It makes me wonder if her family had any inkling that something was wrong, or if there were other unexplored reasons for the wait. I also find it odd how no one seems to know what happened after she got that ride back home, even with the lie detector test. It's as if she vanished into thin air. Does anyone have thoughts on how this could have all been handled differently back then? It’s been so long, and I feel like there are still pieces missing that could shine a light on what happened to her.
Hello,
Does anyone know if it's possible to get a copy of the police investigation report? Is there a report? How did you know that she was pregnant and had a child at home? Is there a way to find out who the friend that gave her a ride is?
