Lead #3

Did anyone see Molly at or near the Wendy's restaurant on July 6, 2004?

Molly Dattilo, a young woman from Indianapolis, disappeared on July 6, 2004, after leaving home to fill out a job application at a nearby Wendy's restaurant around 7:00 p.m. Her brother reported her missing two days later, noting that she left without her phone or extra clothing despite having an appointment scheduled for July 9th—behavior inconsistent with her occasional three-day absences. Nearly two decades later, the circumstances of her disappearance remain unknown, and investigators continue seeking information from anyone who may have seen her or knows what happened.
