Case Summary
Lilli Marlene Dunn lived on Agnes Street, Southgate, Michigan with her husband, Mike, and their 7-year-old daughter, Leila.
Lilli was a petite, attractive blonde and part-time model. She was a member of a local bowling league and had formerly worked as an accountant for The Detroit News.
At 6:30PM on 30 July 1980, Lilli left home to join her league at Schaefer Lanes bowling alley in Dearborn, MI. After the game, she drove to a bar on nearby Ford Road to celebrate a girlfriend’s birthday. She arrived home sometime between 2:30 and 3:00AM on the 31 July, and parked her car in the garage.
When Lilli stepped out of the garage onto the driveway, she was ambushed by an unidentified male. Two neighbors were alerted by her cries for help and watched as the man forced Lilli, kicking and screaming, into a light-colored vehicle and drove away. Her husband was wakened by Lilli’s screams, but by the time he got to the driveway, she and her assailant were gone. Her purse, shoes, and hairbrush were scattered about the yard.
The eyewitnesses estimated the kidnapper to be around six feet tall and 200 pounds with dark, curly hair. Accounts agree that the perpetrator drove a light-colored GM vehicle; possibly a Pontiac Grand Prix, a Buick, or an Oldsmobile Cutlass.
