Terrie Bea Ehrhart was 23 when she made a final phone call to her mother from a motel in Champaign, Illinois on the evening of May 10, 1981. During that call she said she would return to her mother’s home in Decatur the next day, bringing a Mother’s Day gift and a new dress for her young daughter. Terrie never arrived and her family did not hear from her again; she was not formally reported missing until November 1981.

At the time she vanished Terrie was described as a white female, 5 feet 4 inches to 5 feet 5 inches tall, 115 to 140 pounds, with brown hair and hazel eyes. Distinguishing marks included pierced ears, a 1 1/2-inch scar on her right collarbone, a tattoo of a marijuana leaf on her upper right arm and a tattoo of the letter J on her right buttocks. Investigators from the Decatur Police Department, Champaign authorities and the Illinois Department of Law Enforcement later came to suspect she had been the victim of a homicide and sought a wiretap on a Decatur home, but her remains have never been found.

Who in Champaign or Decatur remembers Terrie around May 10, 1981, or saw her leaving the motel that night?
