Bambi Lynn Dick Part 2: Now, Justice

Bambi Lynn Dick Part 2: Now, Justice

Author: TTC Productions September 30, 2024 Duration: 28:26
Part 2 of 2. In late September 1983, 17-year-old Bambi Dick and friends attended a heavy metal concert at Davenport, Iowa’s Col Ballroom. Stories about what happened after, perhaps, are conflicting, but whatever the case, Bambi vanished. For more than a quarter century, her family looked for her. At some point, her parents expected her to come waltzing through the front door with a couple kids and a husband. But they also knew she had no reason to run away and had never tried to run away before. Years after the disappearance, Bambi’s brother began looking on the internet and realized he needed to post his sister’s information to missing persons websites. He did just that in 2009, and within days, an internet sleuth made a connection between Bambi’s Iowa disappearance and a Jane Doe in Amarillo, Texas.
