On 04-23-1985, Christine left her home to walk to school at 8AM and never returned home. Christine had never been reported missing before this incident. She always came home on time and if she was going to be late she would call home. Christine had her left kidney removed in July of 1984. If she were to develop a fever she would have been in need of medication. It was also speculation at the time that Christine may have been afraid to come home beccause she was pregnant.
