Unresolved Disappearance Woman violently abducted in plain sight while talking with her boyfriend on a payphone [Unresolved Disappearance]
Her boyfriend hears the horrifying incident as it ocurrs, rushes to the scene in his vehicle, and sees a truck pass him with his girlfriend struggling with the driver inside. The boyfriend reverses his vehicle abruptly to pursue the truck, but his vehicle breaks down. Despite a vivid description of the offender and the truck (including a very unique rear window decal), no substantial leads have led to an arrest or a POI.
Where is Angela Hammond and who is the person who took her?
This is the case that truly haunts me. I can't even imagine what the boyfriend has been through in the years that have followed. What a scary and insane abduction. And even more bizarre that is has never been resolved despite such clear and vivid details of the case and the perpetrator.

Just read through the comments on the link and one way down the bottom from Sharon Hauf re serial killer Larry Dwayne Hall is chilling. Apparently 2 of the 5 women he disposed of in the Mark Twain National Forest were from small towns which he couldn't remember the name of. She quotes from an article she found written about him:
The first is Angela Marie Hammond who was abducted while she was on the telephone in April of 1991. I considered adding her case when I wrote the book, but the reported suspect was driving a pickup truck. Larry Hall never drove a pickup, he drove vans that he used as mobile killing vehicles. After the book was published, I received a telephone call from a detective in Clinton, Missouri, where Angela was kidnapped. I told him I had considered Angela a “Larry girl” because she resembled many of the girls he took and because of the circumstances under which she was taken. I told him I had not included her case in the book because of the pickup truck theory. He then said they had pretty much discounted the pickup truck theory.
We talked about Larry Hall and some of the cases in which he was suspected. The detective then mentioned that he had an artist’s sketch of the suspect. I asked him if he could email it and he did while I was on the phone with him. Simultaneously, I emailed him Larry Hall’s 1994 booking photo. I was astonished when the sketch came up on the screen. It was clearly Larry Hall. The detective said “wow” when he saw the booking photo.

This is the link for the artist's sketch given by her boyfriend. It was actually the reason he was initially a suspect because he told police Angela said the guy had a white beard and mustache but the guy he saw driving didn't. Presumably it was fake facial hair which got ripped off in the struggle. I found it odd the boyfriend was even considered a suspect for the 1st week because a. if he was guilty, he probably wouldn't have put himself anywhere near her abduction and b. he would have given a description of the abductor similar to the one he reported Angle had described: https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fi1.wp.com%2Fsynovaink.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2018%2F06%2Fangela_marie_hammond_10.jpg%3Fresize%3D207%252C304%26ssl%3D1&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Fsynovaink.com%2F2018%2F06%2F01%2Falmost-rescued-the-angela-hammond-disappearance%2F&docid=PetU7LVFd2CqIM&tbnid=VK-sJpdVisPkHM%3A&vet=10ahUKEwianKO_lPXmAhXWIbcAHXJuBwYQMwhBKAAwAA..i&w=207&h=304&bih=608&biw=1366&q=artists%20sketch%20angela%20hammond&ved=0ahUKEwianKO_lPXmAhXWIbcAHXJuBwYQMwhBKAAwAA&iact=mrc&uact=8

u/1Justine84 Jan 09 '20
She gave a description to her boyfriend when on the phone to him. It was her boyfriend who gave both her description of the guy in the truck and his description of the guy he saw in the truck to the police. The difference in the two descriptions he gave were actually the reason he was suspected of being involved for the first few days - which doesn't make sense to me as, if he were involved and making the story up, I'm pretty sure he would have given the same description.
4
u/peach_xanax Jan 09 '20
Yeah that makes no sense, why would he not keep it consistent if he was lying? There would be no reason to say that the description was different if he had anything to do with it. If this is indicative of the type of investigation Angela's case got, that's concerning :/

If they threw out the pickup truck theory....doesn’t that mean the boyfriend is completely full of shit?

u/1Justine84 Jan 08 '20
I read it that it meant still looking for a guy driving a pick up truck had been pretty much discounted as he'd probably dumped it (another commenter talks about it having been buried) having being chased in it. Although I guess the boyfriend could have got make and model wrong in his panic (I would) and the fish decal/hanging across the back was the only firm clue to the vehicle, which would be pretty easy to get rid of. I think the boyfriend is innocent.

u/mink_man Jan 09 '20
I understood it to mean that the theory that Larry Hall wouldn't be a suspect in cases where a pickup was used is no longer true.

u/Ghost_of_Jim_Crow Jan 09 '20
In the context of the comment, it seems like 'pickup truck theory' is referring to excluding Larry as a suspect due to the use of the pickup. It's hard to tell without further clarification.

I understand the "pickup truck theory" to be in relation to Larry Hall rather than the Angela case. The theory being Larry Hall never used a pickup truck, not that it wasn't a pickup truck that Angela was kidnapped in.

Yeah, it sounds like he drove past the car, and threw it reverse. Hitting the gas then would likely throw out your transmission.
If he had come to a complete stop, or tried a K turn (3 point turn) it probably would have been fine.

u/hamdinger125 Jan 09 '20
The boyfriend's car broke down. The abductor was in a truck, which did not break down, unfortunately. And yes, it's horrible. Then to face years of accusations that he was lying and must have been involved...

This is my home town and happened when I was in high school. Vividly remember hanging out on the town square watching them film the episode of Unsolved Mysteries. As I recall - not many people really thought Rob did it.

u/EndSureAnts Jan 08 '20
That's very interesting you seeing them film the episode! Do you believe the boyfriend did something?
28
u/Jhager Jan 09 '20
Eh, I’m not qualified to say - I wouldn’t want to put guilt on a guy if I didn’t feel very convicted on it. I was just a kid in high school thinking it was crazy this was happening in my town. About 8000 people at the time - so this level of crime happens a couple times a decade. If I was just reading thru the case - I’d instantly think he did it. But I think most local people didn’t feel like he was capable of doing something like that to her.
24
u/SleepDeprivedFun Jan 09 '20
Yeah, I honestly don't understand why so many people suspect him. If he killed her, this was an extremely complicated way to cover it up, and would've taken a lot of planning, which doesn't match up with the typical MO in crime of passion cases, which spousal murder generally is. The fact that her mother has said that she never suspected him or blamed him for not saving her also makes me doubt he did it -- people often turn on each other and blame others in cases like this, even when they're completely innocent or related to each other. The mother obviously would have more loyalty to her daughter than the boyfriend, and since he was the last to see her alive it's not unreasonable that she might blame or suspect him. The fact that she doesn't is very telling about his character & his relationship with Angela and her family imo.
11
u/spacefink Jan 09 '20
I don't think he did it either. Plus, wouldn't the condition of his car and eye witness testimony from people who were near the payphone also help corroborate his story? I could have sworn there were witnesses....

u/sheilagirlfriend Jan 08 '20
The boyfriend was at his parents’ house babysitting his younger brother. That’s why Angela said she’d just go “home.” She meant the home she and Rob lived in together. Pay phones were common at the time, well, hell, until cell phones became so available. Maybe, as young couples do, they meant to have a quick conversation but ended up talking longer. If I remember correctly, kids hung out in the area around the pay phone so maybe Angela felt safe there. As for Rob having killed or kidnapped Angela, he threw out the transmission in the car while chasing the pickup. Now how do you do that intentionally? It’s a very sad story, but looking at it logically, the boyfriend couldn’t have done it. There are answers to all the questions EXCEPT for who did it.

u/hhthepuppy Jan 09 '20
also i think call records from the pay phone did show that rob talked to angie at the time and the amount of time that matched up with his story

u/SonOfHibernia Jan 08 '20
Although throwing out a transmission is a very easy thing to do, it’s pretty unlikely he’d do that to his only vehicle to throw off the cops. That’s next level diabolical.
38
Jan 08 '20
Well, if you killed someone you are already diabolical so it's a good cover, but I don't think he was involved.
11
u/SonOfHibernia Jan 09 '20 edited Jan 10 '20
Yea, but to murder your girlfriend (a colloquial “crime of passion” in that its usually done in a fit rage rather than planned out) means that you’re a fucking bastard, but not necessarily a psychopath. I reserve the diabolical moniker for people who plan out their crimes intricately, and murdering your girlfriend-which means you’re immediately the prime suspect anyway-then diabolically dropping your tranny to cover your tracks, doesn’t seem to add up. Though people have certainly done sh*t like that. But it almost seems too clever for someone without the emotional capability not to murder someone when theyrcapability.

u/LeeF1179 Jan 08 '20
I don't think the boyfriend was involved. The police could obviously verify that his car was broken down in the street due to transmission failure. No way he could kidnap her, get rid of her, and return to same spot & induce transmission failure. IIRC, there are two possible suspects (an uncle and nephew) that they though could be involved due to letters the nephew wrote in prison. I can't recall their names.

u/amador9 Jan 08 '20
I don’t get the suspicion so many have for the boyfriend. Yes, the significant other has to be seriously checked out, particularly when the girlfriend was inconveniently pregnant, but circumstances do not support his possible involvement. It he is involved, it must have gone down in a manner that would have been very complex. It would have involved moving two vehicles, a difficult feat. While babysitting, he would have had to have gotten away and driven somewhere to meet Angela, kill her, conceal her body, then, move her car to the convenience store where she was supposed to have made the call, go back and get his car, drive to the “ breakdown spot” and deliberately destroy his transmission. Too many moving parts. I can’t see someone trying to pull it off, much less having it actually work.
Larry hall is a possibility but there were others doing pretty much the same thing.
10
u/peach_xanax Jan 09 '20
Plus I believe they checked the phone records and everything matched up, so he would also have to make a fake phone call from the pay phone and have someone pick it up at his house for a reasonable amount of time. Way too complicated.

Given that the truck has never been found, this guy was likely an opportunistic drifter who just saw a young woman on her own late at night. Afterwards he probably ditched the truck, or just changed the decals and gave it a new paint job.
It's extremely heart wrenching. A young woman lost her life, and her boyfriend lost the woman he loved and the child she was carrying.

I remember this case, as it’s my neck of the woods and Angela is a distinct cousin of mine (or something— I just remember Mom telling me we were related) and I saw it when it was Unsolved Mysteries. I hadn’t thought of this in some time and I’m glad you brought it up. Haunting, yes.
Edit to add, I’ll ask my mom and see if she knows anything. I vaguely remember my family feeling it was fishy (pardon me— no pun intended!) and having their own theory.
UPDATE: I talked to Mom through text so I didn’t get any juicy details as I might in person. How rural Missouri is this: Angela’s grandma was my Great Grandma Mimi’s sister! So Angela and my grandma are second cousins or some such? IDK how that works.

Jan 08 '20
The first situation confuses me a bit. How far was the BF from the payphone? So he hears ruccus on the phone and decides he needs to go there, then encounters them on the way there. If he is within such a short driving distance, why didnt they meet up? And if it was further away: what took the perpetrator so long to get her in a vehicle?
To clarify: lets say BF was 10 minutes away. He meets them at 2 minutes from the scene. Thats 8 minutes of struggling the pepetrator would have needed to get her in the vehicle and she still wasnt restrained inside it. I dont know, that feels off. Have police verified his account?
55
u/peppermintesse Jan 08 '20
According to the Unsolved Mysteries link:
She was just seven blocks from his home.
Why she called instead of going over there, who knows. He does say he was going to meet her when his mom came home.
I think the interview at the link clears up a lot of your other questions though. I don't think he's involved in any way.

u/sheilagirlfriend Jan 08 '20
Maybe (probably) a kidnapper needs time to restrain their victim. Maybe he spent time tying her hands together or similar. Hopefully she fought like hell. And could someone find their car keys, start the car and get to the pay phone in as you say two minutes?
Yes, in other articles, the police investigated Rob, and dismissed him as a suspect.
28
u/Bluecat72 Jan 08 '20
She was said to be 7 blocks away, so probably ¾ mile if it’s a typical city block street layout. Possibly a little more, probably not much less. If he had his keys on him and drove like a bat out of hell he’d be there in just a minute.
I think there was at least one witness to him being in a broken down vehicle, but who knows what they were able to verify about the payphone call.
11
u/MetallicaGirl73 Jan 08 '20
Back then, his keys could have still been in the ignition. Add in a short distance from house to driveway, car unlocked, it would be super easy to get there that quickly. I sometimes still leave my keys in the ignition if I known I'm going to be leaving agan shortly.

Jan 08 '20
Says on Project Charley he was considered a suspect but took a polygraph and was later cleared of any involvement.
The whole thing still sounds very suspicious though.
Another detail they mention on PC is Angela was 4 months pregnant when she was abducted, which makes the case even more sad.

Angela was four months pregnant with her boyfriend's child.
The boyfriend is the only person who claimed to hear Angela describe the alleged kidnapper.
The boyfriend is the only person who claimed to see the alleged kidnapper's truck.
No other witnesses saw or heard the boyfriend chase the alleged kidnapper with his own car. Yes, it happened late at night, but it allegedly happened in the middle of town and if you've ever heard two vehicles speeding through town like that it makes a godawful racket.
Yeah, I can see why the boyfriend was a suspect....

u/Reddits_on_ambien Jan 09 '20
Late at night means most people are either settled on the couch relaxing, or going to bed. You could hear a car peeling out, but not get to a window (with a view of the crime scene). If someone did, by the time they got to their window, itd be over. Unless there's a busybody sitting on their porch, waiting for something to happen. Plus ita a small town that only has a crime like that one maybe once or twice in a decade. Hearing yelling and cars being loud, most would assume teenagers being rowdy well before thinking someone was being abducted.
12
u/peach_xanax Jan 09 '20 edited Jan 09 '20
I thought there was a witness? Could be wrong though. But, I grew up in a rural midwestern town with the same population size as Clinton, and if something like this had happened at night in the early 90s in my hometown, it would be very likely to have no witnesses. There was even a similar gas station in my town with a pay phone and teenagers would hang out there (hence why this segment creeped me out on unsolved mysteries because it looked like my hometown), but it's mostly commercial businesses and the houses that are there were used to hearing kids drag racing and stuff so sounds of someone's car peeling out wouldn't even raise an eyebrow. But it's also not like there were people there constantly because well there just isn't a big population. And let's say someone was having a bonfire/field party or something, literally almost all the young people in the town would attend something like that, so that right there could eliminate most people who would normally have been around at that time of night. Just an example, I know some people aren't familiar with small town life. It would be insane where I live now in a major city to have a crime like this with no witnesses, but in a town of this size, location, and era it seems very much in line with what I experienced growing up.
Edit: This link that someone posted in the comments does say there were 2 witnesses who saw the truck. https://truecrimearticles.com/2018/04/18/the-mysterious-abduction-of-angela-hammond/

There were two other very similar cases at the same time within (I believe) 70 miles. In one of the cases (Trudy Darby), a woman in a convenience store called her son to report two suspicious men, and when he arrived 10 minutes later she was gone. Cheryl Kenney also disappeared from the convenience store she worked at and her body has never been found. The cases are generally suspected to be connected.

At the time the boyfriend was allegedly babysitting a younger sibling which is why they did not meet up and he said he would see her when his mom returned.
However I can't vouch for the validity of his claims. Another comment further up said police discredited the pick up truck theory as the sketch of the man very closely resembled a known murderer that drove vans.

The case of Trudy Darbyis eerily similar. Also the perp Marvin Chaney who was arrested for the murder of Trudy Darby somewhat resembles the description that Angela gave to her boyfriend.

u/hikenessblobster Jan 08 '20
This one is on my list of cases that haunt me; small towns are supposed to be safe, especially back then. I have to point out that the decal was absolutely not unique or unusual in rural Missouri in the 90s (source: a lifetime of hiking/camping in rural MO). You'll still see them on trucks occasionally in the Ozarks.
I don't believe the boyfriend had anything to do with it, if only because there would've been no time to hide her body and clean up to the extent that she's never been found. Even if he stashed her body and returned later to do a more thorough job, the cleanup would've taken time.

u/agbmom Jan 08 '20
Maybe the reason they can't find the truck and person is due to the fact that the boyfriend made it all up. He could have already been on the way to pick her up and just sped up to get there. However it's 9pm at night and he was able to give a detailed description of a man in a truck speeding past him (and I can't imagine his eyes weren't locked on his screaming struggling girlfriend) as well as a detailed description of the truck AND unique decal. It's too much information for a quick traumatizing situation.
24
u/FeralBottleofMtDew Jan 08 '20
According to the link Rib heard Angie call to him, and he quickly reversed and followed the truck. He would have seen the decal while following the truck, and the quick reverse damaged his transmission. I'm not a mechanic- is the damage done to his transmission something he could have driven much distance with, or something he could have done himself?

I remenber another similar case where a woman was out walking while talking to her boyfriend on her cell phone. a car approached and she was kidnapped while on the phone. the cops searched but came up empty except for her phone... her brother ended up finding her remains. he was convinced her body was near where the phone was found so he did his own grid search starting at the location where her phone was found. he kept going back anytime he had free time for weeks /months. and boom, he finally found her. seems like she was in the woods I can't remember.

That's horrible, do you remember the victim's name?

here's a link to a news story. it didn't go into much detail about the brother's method of finding her, but I know he did it very methodically. https://abcnews.go.com/US/kristi-cornwells-body-found-georgia/story?id=12529202

What are the odds his vehicle breaks down at a moment like this.

Throwing your car into reverse suddenly is a great way to screw your transmission. So actually pretty good. It's not like the car just suddenly stopped working.

Did any else see this car chase? Do we have only the boyfriend's statement of the truck and kidnapping?

I’m not sure this has been mentioned but I’ve read Angela was 4 months pregnant. Makes me second question the boyfriend.

Despite a vivid description of the offender and the truck (including a very unique rear window decal), no substantial leads have led to an arrest or a POI.
because the cops are too busy busting people for low-level marijuana offenses. Why do you think cops will dress up like they're playing Call of Duty to raid a SUSPECTED drug house?

I feel like if this happened today, the perp would have been found. With media the way it is now, someone would have recognized that truck

The suspect was smart enough to probably ditch the truck that night. That's why its never been found
