Mary Shotwell Little Disappearance

Mary Shotwell Little, a 25-year old newlywed secretary at a bank in Atlanta, Georgia, mysteriously vanished after having dinner with a friend on the night of October 14, 1965. The next day, her car was found in the same lot where she had parked the night before, but there were indications that it had been driven away from this location and returned. Her undergarments were neatly folded inside and there were traces of blood throughout the vehicle. The car also had a license plate which was not registered to Mary and had been stolen from another vehicle in Charlotte, North Carolina.

The day after she disappeared, Mary's gasoline credit card wound up being used at two separate stations in Charlotte and Raleigh. The signatures for them read "Mrs. Roy H. Little Jr." and appeared to be in Mary's handwriting. Both places reported seeing a disheveled woman matching Mary's description who seemed to have a minor head injury and was in the company of two domineering men. There have been many theories about her disappearance, ranging from an obsessive secret admirer to a sex scandal at her workplace, but none of them have ever been proven and Mary Little's fate remains an unsolved mystery.
