On the night of October 1, 1976, just one week after celebrating his 21st birthday, Jimmy Don Robinson vanished from Elmore City, Oklahoma. Though he no longer lived at the family home, Jimmy stopped by around midnight. His mother had just returned from a late shift and was preparing dinner. Jimmy chatted briefly with his family, and during that time, they noticed an unfamiliar man sitting in the passenger seat of Jimmy's car. Jimmy didn’t say who the man was, only that he was giving him a ride and would be back in about 30 minutes. Jimmy was never seen or heard from again.

Now, nearly 49 years later, Jimmy’s loved ones are still searching for answers about that night.
