The Springfield Three Disappearance - Missouri 1992

Reference TimelineLast updated FEB 20
SUMMARY

New analytical approaches and modern behavioral profiling are reshaping the investigation into the 1992 disappearance of Suzanne Streeter, Stacy McCall, and Sherrill Levitt in Springfield, Missouri, as of January 12, 2026. As of January 13, 2026, journalist Anne Roderique-Jones covered the case in her podcast, while the Springfield Police Department expanded its cold case unit in October 2025. Robert Craig Cox, a convicted kidnapper and robber, remains a person of suspicion after his girlfriend recanted his 1992 alibi, though no charges have been filed due to a lack of physical evidence. Additionally, Suzie Streeter's ex-boyfriend, against whom she was to testify, and convicted kidnapper Gerald Carneahan have been identified as persons of interest. A theory suggesting the women's bodies might be buried under a hospital parking lot, where ground-penetrating radar found three anomalies, has not led to excavation by police.
