Why Did Patty Vaughn Disappear So Suddenly?

Описание: In December 1996, 32-year-old Patty Vaughan vanished from her home in La Vernia, Texas — just hours after a tense Christmas Day with her estranged husband. Her minivan was found abandoned days later, with the driver’s seat pushed far back and bloodstains on the interior. Despite decades of investigation, Patty has never been found, and no one has been charged in connection with her disappearance.
What happened to Patty Vaughan on that fateful holiday? Why did investigators focus on her estranged husband, and what did the blood evidence inside her van suggest? Could someone else have been involved — or was it a tragic case of domestic conflict that turned deadly?
Join me as I walk through the full timeline of Patty Vaughan’s disappearance, the strange clues left behind, and the enduring mystery that continues to haunt her family and the small Texas town she called home.
