In the state of West Virginia, there are 142 open missing people cases. I believe that is 142

00:00:58,720 → 00:01:03,760

too many. These are just some of the people missing from the Mountain State.

00:01:03,760 → 00:01:13,840

Juanita Reedy was last seen on November 9, 1979 on Valley Drive in Beckley, West Virginia. She was

wearing black slacks, a beige shirt, and either a maroon leather jacket or a blue and white ski

00:01:21,840 → 00:01:28,320

jacket. Nine days after her disappearance, her car was found stripped and burned in Pipestone,

00:01:28,320 → 00:01:35,840

West Virginia. Juanita has a mole below her right eyebrow and a scar on her chin. If you or anyone

00:01:35,840 → 00:01:42,960

00:01:54,480 → 00:02:01,600

in August or September of 1982. Alfred may go by the name Freddie. He has a scar on his stomach

00:02:01,600 → 00:02:07,600

from a burn and scars on his legs and hips from skin grafts. If you have any information on the

of 1975, but he never showed and has not been seen or heard from since. David walked with a limp

00:04:21,360 → 00:04:28,480

Kathleen Virginia Farmer Gill, better known as Kathy Jo Hanger, where Kathy Lemon was last seen

00:05:13,120 → 00:05:21,200

on March 20, 1984, in Parkersburg, West Virginia. She got into a vehicle with three men and was

00:05:21,200 → 00:05:27,840

never seen again. Two of the men admitted to the rape and murder of Kathleen. The third, who I'm

00:05:27,840 → 00:05:33,680

going to call Jimmy, never admitted to it, but he served time for other serious crimes.

00:05:35,040 → 00:05:40,480

Jimmy is a person of interest in her case. The two men claim that they dumped Kathleen's body

00:05:40,480 → 00:05:47,520

over Memorial Bridge. It has never been recovered. Kathleen had a tattoo on her upper left arm and

00:05:47,520 → 00:05:55,360

a scar on her chest. If you have any information on the case of Kathleen Virginia Farmer Gill,

00:05:55,360 → 00:06:02,960

contact the Wood County Sheriff's Office at 304-834-3909.

00:06:05,040 → 00:06:11,440

The final missing person's case that I have for you is Susan Fay Roup. Susan Fay Roup was last

00:06:11,440 → 00:06:19,120

seen on February 12, 1979, in Golly, West Virginia, by her neighbor. The neighbor claimed they saw a

00:06:19,120 → 00:06:26,400

dark colored truck or maybe even a van as Sue's house. And Sue was seen getting into the vehicle.

00:06:26,400 → 00:06:32,640

She could have even been forced into the vehicle. Susan was recently divorced and had a new love

00:06:32,640 → 00:06:40,000

interest in her life. Val play is suspected in her case. In fact, when a set of remains was found,

00:06:40,000 → 00:06:46,160

on Bolt Mellon in 2017, officers actually thought that maybe it could be Sue Fay Roup,

00:06:46,160 → 00:06:51,680

but it was Margie Dodd, which we covered her case in season two of Mountain State Mysteries.

00:06:51,680 → 00:07:03,360

If you have any information on the whereabouts of Susan Fay Roup, contact Crime Stoppers at 304-255-7867,

00:07:03,360 → 00:07:15,040

or the West Virginia State Police at 304-746-2100. This isn't the last time we will be covering any

00:07:15,040 → 00:07:20,160

of these cases. We are diving deeper into them to bring you even more information.
