Lora Lyann Stubbs, 25: Went Out To Get Food & Didn't Return In 1996
Her parents went to pick her up but she wasn't at her home.
Agencies may not agree on the exact date Lora Lyann Stubbs went missing, but everyone agrees her case remains a mystery.
The Cincinnati, Ohio, resident lived on Brewster Avenue back in 1996. The last time anyone saw Lora was near the intersection of Gilbert Avenue and McMillian Street on June 9, according to The Charley Project. It was then that Lora called her parents. They lived about 40 minutes away in Hamilton, Ohio, and Lora let them know that she wanted to visit them because she was feeling unwell.

The 25-year-old was living in an apartment with her boyfriend at the time. She told her parents she planned to go out to get some food before returning to her apartment, and she asked them to swing by to pick her up. When they arrived at Lora’s home, she was nowhere to be found. Lora has never been seen or heard from again.
Investigators reportedly claim there isn’t much information to help locate Lora. She did leave a son behind, but she’d voluntarily surrendered her parental rights to her mother. Also, her social security number has not been used since she was last seen.
Moreover, Lora does have a history of drug abuse, but it’s reported that by the time she disappeared, she was in recovery.
