Missing Persons - A podcast by AbJack Entertainment - Saturdays

Episode 98 Barbara McClure   On November 2nd, 1978 24 year old Barbara Annette McClure went out for a night of dancing at the Fandango Disco in Seattle Washington on. That night, she and her dance partner who she had briefly dated got into a minor argument. Reportedly, the man she was dancing with left the club, and a short while later, Barbara also left. People that knew Barbara claimed that they saw her walking near the 16500 block of Bothell Way northwest, about half a mile from the disco, and they claimed they offered her a ride but she refused, and insisted on walking 5 miles to her home. She didn't make it home, and was never seen again. The lines of what happened that night are blurred by inaccuracies and confusion. A neighbor boy who babysat Barbara's 2 year old daughter Jamie, swears that he babysat that night and in the early morning hours, was told by a strange man to go home. Somehow, Jamie wound up in the care of her family that morning and it's not clear how. There is also speculation that the witnesses who las saw Barbara may not be telling the full truth. Finally, there is reason to believe that Barbara's father who she was estranged from was having her followed when she went missing.  Days after Barbara vanished, her driver's license was found about ten miles away in a culdesac. The case went cold, and Jamie now an adult, is trying to get to the bottom of what happened. In this episode, she discusses her efforts, and all of the confusion in the case.  When she went missing, Barbara was described as White with shoulder length Brown hair, Blue eyes, standing 5ft5, and weighing 120 lbs. She was last seen wearing a green and rust-colored blouse with wide stripes, a short black leather jacket, rust-colored corduroy pants and tan mid-calf boots with a two-inch heel.
