Today, we explore the tragic disappearances of Arrilla Webb-Vaul and Dodie Gay, two young women who vanished just months apart from the same shopping mall in 1979. Arrilla, a 23-year-old housewife, and Dodie, a 17-year-old high school student, were full of life and promise. Their cases are chillingly similar, with too many coincidences to ignore.
Arrilla’s car was found abandoned near the Jimmie Davis Bridge in Shreveport, Louisiana, with a punctured tire. Witnesses saw a man approach her car, but Arrilla was never seen again. Dodie disappeared from the same shopping mall just a month later. Her car, also with slashed tires, was found in the parking lot. Dodie’s body was discovered weeks later, but her murder remains unsolved. Both families were left devastated, searching for answers and closure that would never come. In this episode, we dive into their lives, the investigation, and the heartache of those left behind. These women were more than just victims of tragic disappearances; they were daughters, sisters, and friends whose futures were cruelly stolen. Tune in as we uncover the haunting details of their unsolved cases.
