Patricia Girou and her husband, Jack, were reported missing on June 17, 1975. Their son reportedly came by the residence to take his parents out for Father`s Day to find no one at home. The couple`s vehicles were in the garage. Their keys, wallet, and money were in the bedroom. The couple`s dog was in the backyard without food or water.
The couple`s teenage daughter claimed that her parents left the morning of the 11th to go to a funeral in a green limousine. There was allegedly a prior conflict with the same daughter, as the Girou`s had apparently asked her to move out of their home. Investigators searched the sewers in the neighborhood, dug up the yard where there was a garden, and also dug up a piece of land which the couple had just purchased to build their retirement home. The couple has never been seen again. They've since been declared legally dead. Foul play is suspected.
