Lauren Dumolo

On a hot summer morning in June 2020, 29-year-old Lauren Dumolo left her Cape Coral, Florida apartment and was never seen again. Her purse was found abandoned on a bench at Four Freedoms Park. Her cell phone? Back at her apartment. And her flip-flops—discovered later—near a drainage ditch just blocks from where she was last seen. There was no note. No signs of a struggle. No goodbyes. And no trace of Lauren. Over the next several weeks, search teams scoured the area. Flyers went up, tips trickled in, and local media tried to keep her story alive. But nearly five years later, her disappearance remains one of Cape Coral’s most troubling cold cases. Was Lauren the victim of foul play? Did someone close to her know more than they’ve let on? Or is it possible she vanished for reasons no one could have predicted? Her family is still searching for answers. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
