Angela Hammond - Girl abducted from phone booth - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

offthechain76 · 06-23-2005, 02:35 PM

Does anyone know if her body has ever been found or if she was found alive. This was the girl abducted while on the pay phone with her boyfriend and he gave chase but his car gave out. This was one of the most disturbing case I have ever watched on UM. Thanks for any information.

I did an internet search right after the story aired and the only site I found was one where she was still listed as missing and "endangered". I am also wondering if anyone from the local area(Western Missouri) has any additional info.

I did speak with someone in the media in that area recently. Here is the link of the thread:

Did you guys see the picture of the younger woman abducted from a convenience store? That scared the crap out of me.
Her eyes were pitch black!

Goofyman · 06-23-2005, 07:08 PM

Yeah, I freaked out when I saw her picture. That was a terrible photo. Her eyes were completely dark.

I think all 3 of the abductions that were talked about in the episode are connected, and that the one they found is just a sign of the fates of the others.

Angela Hammond is listed at the Doe Network. The fact that she is still profiled there strongly suggests that she has never been found.

The site seems to be kept up to date. I mean, Bobbi Parker was profiled at the site, and when she was recently found alive, her Doe Network profile disappeared.

I just find it amazing at how trusting people were back then. I mean of course she had some doubts and/or worries about the man but ignored them. If I was in her shoes at that time I would've gotten in my car and driven away the moment I noticed his truck circling the block.

Back then 24-hour coverage of missing women/children didn't exist, so while it happened, we didn't hear about it.

Echoes Of Fear, you bring up a very good point. The fact that the truck kept circling the block around the telephone booth - which even prompted her to get concerned - should have sent a clearer message that something was wrong, especially when the truck pulled up next to the telephone booth. That's when she should have thrown the reciever down and bolted for her car.

But I guess I can see the other point of view. The city of Clinton seemed like a very small town where everyone knows and trusts each other, at least that's how Unsolved Mysteries portrayed it. Still, the truck circling the block would have made me suspicious.

Such a sad case.

I was wondering if Angela worked at that convenience store where she was abducted from in front of. It said in the newspaper clipping they showed briefly she was abducted after she got off work. Her abductor could have seen her working and waited until she got off work. That would make sense since they said the police linked her disappearance to other women in the Missouri area who were abducted at convenience stores. Just a thought.

actually she had dropped off her boyfriend after a barbecue at around 9pm. She promised to phone him in a few hours. When she stopped to phone him she was abducted.

Here is some info regarding the Hammond case that I posted a couple
years ago. Unfortunately, though not surprisingly, it is believed that she was
murdered by serial killer Kenneth Alan McDuff, who was executed in 1998.

MelAnnDoll · 07-04-2005, 10:03 AM

She has not been found yet. I don't feel that McDuff did it. I don't feel there is enough evidence linking it to him. She was working there at the time and I'm sure there's been times that we all thought something was a little odd, but didn't jump in our cars and run away.

I dont know if she worked at the convenient store but she was calling at a pay phone in front of the safeway store, which is now a car dealership. Im wondering why she would stop and call her boyfriend on the phone when he only lived 7 blocks and she could of just stopped by or why wouldnt she go home to use her phone??? Im sure the boyfriend had no envolvement. I was told he is still around the area and lives in Lamar, MO. How old would he be now 34-36?

longliveum · 03-02-2007, 12:52 AM

If my memory is correct I believe I read in a newspaper article that Angela worked at a bank.
