Carla Anderson Missing – Anderson was last seen on November 13, 1987 in Wadena, Minnesota. At the moment of her abduction, she was employed at a Hardee’s restaurant. She was recognized as the employee of the month at her place of employment on the day she vanished. Celebrating the occasion that evening, she dined at the Taco John’s with her mother and stepfather. Between 7:30 and 8:00 p.m., Anderson’s mother and stepfather delivered her to her residence, the Greenwood Apartments, where she resided after picking her up some movies to view.

It has been determined that Anderson entered her apartment that evening without incident. Her parents dropped her off with a cup full of carbonated beverages in her hand. The empty cup and one of the videos she had gotten to view were both discovered in her apartment and VCR, respectively. Anderson’s absenteeism from her morning duty was out of character, given her reputation as an exemplary employee. Since then, nothing has been heard from her. Anderson’s apartment appeared to be in pristine condition; the sole items that were absent were her keys and her Hardee’s windbreaker.

The entrance to the apartment was secured from the exterior. Although the structure was equipped with a security door, it had been propped open that evening by incoming tenants. There was a fire raging in a swamp on the fringes of Wadena on the evening of Anderson’s disappearance. From her window, she would have been able to observe the conflagration. Authorities hypothesized that she was assaulted after leaving her residence to observe the fire up close. However, no empirical evidence exists to substantiate this theory.

A brown Plymouth Horizon was stolen from Anderson’s apartment building a few blocks away that same evening; it was never recovered. It is uncertain whether the stolen vehicle is associated with her case. Its photograph is included alongside this case summary. Locals, according to Anderson’s loved ones, occasionally harassed or attempted to exploit her. She was proud of her independence, employment, and ownership of a property, despite having a mild intellectual disability that prevented her from leading a life normal. An additional romantic partner of hers resided in Lake Park, Illinois.

Floyd Todd Tapson, a former suspect and suspected serial murderer, was initially linked to the disappearance of Anderson. However, subsequent to an interview with investigators, Tapson was exonerated from the case. He remains a suspect in the 1996 disappearance of Kristi Nikle, an adolescent with a mental disability who was last seen in Grand Forks, North Dakota. Her partner and every member of Anderson’s family have been eliminated as potential suspects in the investigation. Both of her parents passed away in 2008. Although foul play is suspected in her disappearance, there is limited evidence regarding her whereabouts.
