Disappearance of Susan Smalley and Stacie Madison

Susan Renee Smalley and Stacie Elisabeth Madison are two young women from Carrollton, Texas who disappeared on the morning of March 20, 1988. Disappearance: Stacie Madison worked as a receptionist, and she was also planning to study business at the University of North Texas. On the night of March 19, 1988, Madison stayed at her friend Susan Smalley's house overnight. They both briefly left the house for a short time in Smalley's car, a 1967 Mustang convertible that Smalley had recently purchased with the money that she had earned from working two jobs, which was painted the same colors of their school. Later they were both seen attempting to purchase alcohol at a 7-11, but it was not sold to them since they were minors. It is known that they had returned to the house again shortly after because a friend of Smalley's heard from her at around about midnight, but they left the house again shortly after, because the car that belonged to Madison was no longer parked in front of the house where they were staying. The last time anyone saw the girls was at restaurant called The Steak and Ale which is also where Smalley worked as a waitress. An employee there told investigators that Smalley had been talking to another co-worker, during which time Madison waited in the parked car. The next morning, the girls were reported as missing. The vehicle that the they were riding in was found abandoned in a parking lot of a shopping center in Dallas, Texas. Also found in the vehicle were the personal belongings of both girls. When last seen, Madison was wearing white cotton pants, a long sleeved white sweatshirt with a pink and orange logo, and white tennis shoes, and Smalley was wearing a white sweater, blue jeans, and was also carrying a navy blue shoulder bag with camel trim. Investigation and aftermath: About two months after Madison and Smalley went missing, Smalley's boyfriend told a girl that he was dating that he had killed them both, and then had dumped them in a cemetery that was nearby. When the girl heard this, she called the police. Smalley's boyfriend underwent a polygraph test and passed it. He later settled in Florida, where he moved from town to town for over a decade. Attempts to contact him have been unsuccessful. The police also asked a psychic about the case, and he told the detectives that the girls were murdered by a white male who was between the ages 28 of 34, and had blond hair and eyeglasses, and that he had dumped them near Lake Grapevine. However, nothing was found when a search of the area he described was conducted. Foul play is possible in their disappearances, and it is also believed that they may have been abducted and then taken to Mexico. The case is still active.
