I found this. What do you think? https:///forum/index.php?threads/bl...n-blytheville-ar-17-june-1978-kim-mills.2237/
 
I wonder why it puts all the **** instead of the true link
 
I think the Blytheville case linked above can be discounted as the female victim has been confirmed as Kim Mills.

I wonder if Mary Kay Medlin (her maiden name) is the daughter of Hilyard Orvis Medlin, who died in Augusta in 1986. I ask this because Ancestry has Hilyard O Medlin arriving in New York on the ship Independence from Genoa in 1953. He is accompanied by his wife and 2 daughters, one of whom is Mary K Medlin, age 2. This record would explain the absence of other records for Mary as it records her as born in Austria (although the family were from North Carolina and her then 6 year old sister was born in NC).

Update; I am careful about non-MSM sources and understand they are frowned upon, but Mary Kay Radford confirms her parents and gives much more specific information. Particularly it names her husband as Roderick Radford and that he was killed in a car accident 5 months before she went missing (and that they had a daughter). This seems to introduce some troubling possibilities regarding her reasons for disappearing and what may have happened.

There definitely are few details available. I cannot even find the address of her apartment where she was last seen.
I'm not sure if it's reliable, but NamUs link has a section -Last known location- and there's an address connected to that:
965 Hickman Rd, Augusta, GA 30904, EE. UU.


I could only locate a possible match: The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs)
May someone of her family recognize the ring?1661940555131.jpg

I wonder then if she had more children other than the daughter she had with Roderick.
