I'm on a computer so posting to mark my spot. I just ran across this one and would like to get caught up on it.

Many theories have persisted over the years. One such theory surrounds what many in Shawnee have called "Suit Parties"; stories of prominent local men exchanging drugs for sex with underage teens. The story goes the girls would congregate in hotel rooms, drink alcohol and take the drugs provided in exchange for performing various sexual acts with the "suits". The rumor is that Sandy may have just known too much.
On Sept. 19, 1984, the freckled 17-year-old Shawnee teenager made a phone call from the Shawnee bowling alley in hopes of getting a ride to a party. There are many different scenarios about what may have happened to her after that, but her family believes she met a deadly fate.
Now, 34 years later, her disappearance still remains a mystery and her whereabouts are unknown, but her family still hasn’t given up hope to find her remains to give her a proper burial.
.....For years, it was reported that Sandy was last seen at the Shawnee bowling alley on North Harrison Street, but witness statements in later years of the investigation indicated other possible sightings of her at parties.
Skeletal remains found right outside of Shawnee in an area known as 'Harjo'. Detectives believe it may solve a missing persons case back from 1988 of Kenneth Lester Spencer. The remains were found about 1/4 of a mile from his house. According to the article, it may take a while to ID the remains. Its a long shot, but any time skeletal remains are found in the greater Shawnee area, I have to check to see if it could be Sandy.
Update: Skeletal remains found in Pott. County may solve 1988 case
