Circumstances of Disappearance

McKneely disappeared from Rockdale County, GA on January 29, 1991, sometime between 7:30 and 16:45, the times when her children left for and returned from school. The back door of the residence was kicked open and a windowpane in the door from the garage was broken. Blood was found in the house and carport. Nothing was taken from the home. A white pickup truck was seen in the area during this period. Her automobile, a 1985 tan and black Chevrolet, S-10 Blazer was found the next day in DeKalb County behind Decatur High School. Blood was found in the vehicle. The keys were left in the vehicle and cash was placed in plain view in what investigators believe was an effort to "bait" the vehicle for potential car thieves. Investigators believe that at least two people were involved in the abduction.

She was living with her two sons and had been separated from her husband since November 1989. She and her husband were scheduled to finalize their divorce and disposition of property at 17.00 the day she disappeared.
