Any updates on this case? Let us know!
Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP55160) and 9 other sources
Sharon Priscilla King, aged 43, was last seen on July 17, 2002, leaving her home in Ben Wheeler, Texas. She was driving a metallic blue Chevrolet Suburban at the time and has not been heard from since. King's disappearance has raised concerns of foul play, as no evidence has surfaced to explain her whereabouts. Her husband claimed that she "ran off," but law enforcement believes she may be in danger.

Originally from New England, Sharon had a quiet life in Texas, with family mainly residing in other states. Despite extensive efforts by local authorities and family members, her case remains unsolved, and few details have emerged since she vanished. The Van Zandt County Sheriff's Office continues to seek information regarding her disappearance.
