Thanks for posting this, @mlhenn. I didn't know about that site. It looks like Susan Swedell's sister has teamed up with one of the PIs at SolveTheCase and created a new page about the case. There's a discussion started there by said PI. And Susan's sister has posted about it on her Swedell...

Glad I could help. Thanks for asking and keeping this thread alive!

Hi Sweetluv. There are truly many odd pieces to this story. One theory I think early investigators considered was that she was planning to meet somebody, but her sister has posted about this in social media and commented in the Still Missing Podcast. She says that Sue had a habit of changing...

This recent segment on Minnesota NBC affiliate KARE-11 is a much better production than the WCCO segment above: It's always interesting to me that everytime investigators or family members speak about this, either new details come out or the story shifts ever so slightly. In this latest...

Minnesota CBS affiliate WCCO broadcast a segment about this on Jan 21, 2025, here on YouTube:

Thanks for posting the KARE-11 article. I just searched Google News and yeah, it looks like this one got some press the last few days after all. I thought it was going to go missed this anniversary. Here's some more recent press on this story...

I've talked to a few mechanics and auto buffs about this question. I've done some supporting research too. Universally these sources agree that atmospheric temperature wouldn't help to cool the engine. The way an engine cooling system works is the fluid moves heat away from the engine to the...

Light a candle at 9:00PM Central Time tonight 37 years ago today Susan Swedell was last seen getting into a car with a young male driver at a rural crossroads gas station in Lake Elmo, Minnesota about 1.3 miles from her home. She had reported car trouble to the gas station clerk and asked to...

Could it be that she was abducted by somebody who followed her from Aldee's Disco in Calumet City? I still wonder if there was anything found to be wrong with her car. None of the news reports say anything about it, but automotive sabotage isn't exactly an original MO for abductors. It...

In 1975 a woman in Miami, Florida reported that she was assaulted by a man who had apparently drained her car's radiator in a shopping mall parking lot while she shopped. Her car overheated and broke down about 2 miles away from the shopping mall. A van immediately pulled up behind her. A guy in...

I've wondered about these things too, but the thing is that there were other gas stations along the way home. There was one just down the hill from Kmart on the frontage road. I think it was a SuperAmerica station. And there was another one that was only about a couple blocks or so from her...

Hi BethAnn777. I've had the same question about the gas pumping part. Usually I think the same way you do about it. It could have just been his way of looking natural. It also would have bought him some time. It's crazy though, because it also enhances his visibility. So if he's Sue's abductor...

We're about 1 month away from the 37th anniversary of Sue's disappearance. There's a recurring theme in this case. I'll call it "things not where they should be." It goes a little bit like this: 1. Sue isn't home on Tuesday, Jan 19, 1988 about 930PM as expected 2. A little later that night...
