In the early morning hours of June 18, 1982, 20-year-old Kelly Dove vanished while working the overnight shift at a gas station in Harrisonburg, Virginia. Just minutes before police arrived, Kelly made a series of calls reporting obscene phone calls and a suspicious man outside the store driving a silver Ford. When officers arrived- just minutes after Kelly’s 911 calls- the gas station was eerily untouched. Money left behind, her purse still behind the counter, and no signs of a struggle, but Kelly was gone. What followed was a decades-long search marked by missed leads, unanswered questions, and growing belief that Kelly was abducted and murdered. In this episode of Cold and Missing, we walk through Kelly’s final moments, the troubling similarities to other cases from the same summer, and the renewed investigation that may finally bring answers to what happened to Kelly Dove. Join Ali and Eli as we talk through this missing person case.
