Crime with a K

135. Highway to Nowhere - The Lost Girls of Oregon's Coast (Kelly Disney)

Kelsie Season 1 Episode 160

On Monday July 25, 1994, a man walked into the Newport, Oregon Police Department, holding a human skull in his hands. Upon investigating the skull, it was confirmed that all of the teeth were still intact, so police used dental records to try and confirm who this skull belonged to. About a week later, these dental records came back as a match to a missing person. The dental records confirmed that the skull was a 17-year-old woman named Kelly Disney, who disappeared 10 years earlier on March 9, 1984 in Newport, Oregon. Now, almost 40 years later, there are still no answers in the disappearance and murder of Kelly Disney, and she wasn't the only one to go missing on Oregon's highways.
