Missing Patricia Bernadette Meehan

 Meehan found herself entangled in a vehicular collision while journeying northwestward on Highway 200, in close proximity to the town of Circle nestled in the eastern expanse of Montana, during the twilight hours of April 20, 1989. Her vehicle veered across the median, culminating in a head-on collision with another automobile. Subsequently emerging from the wreckage, Meehan cast a vacant gaze upon the other driver before scaling a nearby fence, subsequently disappearing into the rural terrain, seemingly disoriented. Since that fateful occurrence, she has remained conspicuously absent.

At the time of her vanishing, Meehan resided in Bozeman, Montana, sustaining herself through miscellaneous tasks for her landlord and employment as a ranch hand. Wrestling with distress, she had arranged a meeting with a psychologist scheduled for the morning of April 21. Her yearning to relocate to her parental home in Pennsylvania prompted a consensus between them, contingent upon her consultation with the psychologist.

Speculation lingers that Meehan may be grappling with amnesia, potentially traversing the nation by hitchhiking with truck drivers. Given her affinity for equine companionship, it is plausible that she continues to be involved in equestrian pursuits in some capacity. Nearly a year subsequent to her disappearance, an individual detained in Washington state briefly seemed a plausible match, only to be ultimately identified as someone else.

Sightings of Meehan have been reported across various states of the United States since 1989. Supported by photographic and videographic evidence, her parents corroborated sightings spanning Montana, Washington, South Dakota, and Minnesota in the months post-disappearance. Despite the extensive efforts, she remains elusive, her fate unresolved.
