Circumstances of Disappearance

Eileen Neuberger was last seen on November 9, 1986. She had a psychiatrist appointment, which she didn't show up for, and never returned home. She left behind her clothes, jewelry, money, and two children. Her husband reported her missing on November 12. At the time of her disappearance, Eileen and her husband were in the early stages of divorce.

Twelve years prior, Eileen's husband's first wife died from a gunshot wound to the chest. After a lengthy investigation, it was determined to have been self-inflicted. Following Eileen's disappearance, investigators briefly reexamined the first wife's death.

In 1988, Neuberger was charged with conspiracy, fraud, and grand larceny in connection to his work as chairman of Wedtech Coorporation. During the trial it was brought up that Neuberger owned an unlicensed handgun and had been overheard stating he wanted to arrange for someone "to take care of" his wife because she "knew too much" about his Wedtech crimes and her psychiatric treatment was too expensive.
