info_outlineEpisode 85 Blanca Elisa Roberson
13 year-old Blanca Elisa Roberson, who went by Elisa, vanished on Sunday August 6,1989 in Aransas Pass, TX as she walked a short distance from her home to the Kieberger Elementary School to meet a friend. Her friend waited for her at the school, but Elisa never showed up. Later investigation would lead to multiple witnesses who saw Elisa on her walk that day, and despite one of them saying that they saw her get into a Maroon car, police have never been later to find her. Later, despite eyewitnesses seeing Elisa walking just before she vanished, police seemed to turn their suspicion to Elisa's own family. Eventually a search of the home they lived in when Elisa went missing was searched for clues, but despite law enforcement threatening that an arrest was imminent, one never came. Elisa's family is angered by police suspicion of them, and they have a favorite suspect of their own, one who police said had an alibi, but the family remains suspicious of him. Decades later, it seems like this case is at a standstill. In this episode, Elisa's sister Ruby discusses this mysterious and heartbreaking disappearance.
When she vanished, 13 year old Elisa was described at being Hispanic, 5'0, 120 pounds with Black hair and Brown eyes. She was last seen wearing a light blue Mickey Mouse t-shirt, dark blue culotte shorts and sneakers.
