Quote:St. Peter at the Sonic Drive-In, Pt. 1

On September 20th, 1991, Russell County Sheriff Robert Balloun was dealing with an unusual case, one that he would call a “giant, mixed-up puzzle.”1 Speaking with an AP reporter on the 20th, Balloun announced that there were no solid leads in the disappearance of four women from the small Kansas town of Russell. Missing since September 9th were Donna Butts, Marcia Brock, and Brock’s two college age daughters Sonya and Stephanie. Also missing was an Ottawa, Kansas doctor by the name of Scott Corder. The only stated connection between all of these missing people was “their common belief in UFOs.”2
