Missing since March 6, 1979..thinking of Pamela today!
Oddly, she was not reported missing until March 10th!

She was young enough to have possibly grown up as an adult without realizing she's missing. If anything I hope this is the case and that she's had a good life.

She was returned to her "mother" less than a week before she disappeared. Given the major red flags in this case, i hope the two of them got jail time.

The circumstances surrounding her disappearance are quite shady!! Pamela deserves justice!

Talk about a system that failed a child.

If she was removed from the home as an infant and not returned for 4 years how was there insufficient evidence to prosecute? There had to be evidence sufficient to remove the child from her mother for a considerable period of time.

"A neighbor at her apartment building, who also happened to be Pamela's maternal aunt, saw her on March 6, 1979." I don't see any DNA listed on the DOE network. I wonder if the maternal aunt is still alive and/or her children. There has to be something on file for there to be exclusions on NamUs, I would think. Also, I wonder what the aunt knows about the child's whereabouts.

If I found the mother and step-father documents, it looks like they had a child in 1980 who died as an infant. But I can't confirm.
