Circumstances of Disappearance:
Langwell, an employee at the Mobil Oil refinery, was last seen in her hometown of Beaumont, Texas on July 9, 1999. She called her teenage daughter around 5:30 PM and told her that she was going to visit a friend and that she would be home in about an hour. She failed to return home and has never been heard from again.

After hours passed and Langwell hadn't returned home, her boyfriend began driving around the city looking for her. Around 10:30 PM, he discovered her silver 1994 Nissan Altima abandoned in the parking lot of the now-defunct Eckerd's Drug Store at a shopping center on Dowlen Road and Phelan Boulevard or Phelan Avenue. Langwell's purse and car keys were missing, but her cellular phone, cosmetics, and other personal items were inside the car. There was no other sign of her at the scene, nor was there evidence of a struggle inside or around the vehicle.

Langwell's family members believe that she departed from the pharmacy with someone she trusted. They say it would be highly uncharacteristic of her not to make contact with her daughter for so long, as they were very close. Her loved ones believe Langwell's ex-boyfriend was responsible for her disappearance; the individual had reportedly threatened her and frightened her badly.

Prior to her disappearance, Langwell had told her sister that she might disappear, and told her where to look for her remains, but to disbelieve it if she heard that she committed suicide. Foul play is suspected in Langwell's case. Her whereabouts remain unknown.

The program series dives into Langwell’s personal relationships, which included her ex-boyfriend Terry Rose, who owned a local wrecker service, and her current love interest, a man she worked with, Ken Weatherford.
Investigators from the Beaumont police department and the team from “Cold Justice” reviewed old files in the case and re-interviewed the two main men in her personal life.

Langwell had been separated from Rose for more than six months; however, according to the program series, she was asked to stop by his house to pick up some personal items on the night of her disappearance. She had plans to have dinner with her daughter and Weatherford later that evening.

Langwell never made it to her dinner plans with her daughter and new boyfriend, but her 1994 Nissan Altima was found in the Eckerds parking lot at Dowlen and Phelan Avenue in Beaumont. No one saw her enter the Eckerds store, and there was no evidence of a struggle inside or around the Nissan, according to early reporting from the Beaumont Enterprise.
