## Resource

On August 6, 1989, 13-year-old Elisa Roberson left her home in Aransas Pass, Texas, to meet a friend at a nearby elementary school. It was a walk she had made before and should have taken only a few minutes. But Elisa never arrived, prompting her family to report her missing that night. A wide-scale search began the following morning, and bloodhounds tracked Elisa's scent to a nearby intersection, where it abruptly ended, leading investigators to believe she had been abducted. But more than 37 years later, Elisa has never been found, and what happened to her remains a mystery. If you have information in Elisa’s case, please call the Texas Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-252-TIPS (8477). There is a reward available.
