Stacy McCall

The pair planned to spend the night at their friend Janelle Kirby's house, but when they decided Kirby's house was too crowded, they instead left to go to Streeter's (and thus Levitt's) home at 1717 East Delmar Street to retire for the night.

It is assumed they arrived, because their clothing, jewelry, purses and vehicles were all present at the house the next day.

Levitt was last heard from at approximately 11:15 p.m. on June 6 when she spoke with a friend on the phone about painting an armoire.

The following day around 9:00a.m., Kirby and her boyfriend visited the house after Streeter and McCall failed to show up at her home; they had planned to spend the day at a water park, and were supposed to leave from Kirby's residence.

Upon arriving, Kirby found the home's front door unlocked and entered, but found no sign of Streeter, McCall, or Levitt; each of the women's cars were parked outside.

She also reported to police that the glass lamp shade on the porch light was shattered, though the lightbulb itself was intact.

Kirby's boyfriend innocently helped her sweep the broken glass off the porch, which police later determined may have destroyed potential evidence.

Inside the house, Kirby found Levitt and Streeter's dog, a Yorkshire Terrier named Cinnamon, who appeared agitated; while inside, Kirby also answered a "strange and disturbing call" from an unidentified male who made "sexual innuendos".

She hung up and immediately received another call of a sexual nature, again hanging up the phone.

Several hours later, McCall's mother, Janis, also visited the house as her daughter failed to answer her calls.

Inside, she noticed all three women's purses were sitting on the floor of the living room, and also saw her daughter's clothing neatly folded from the night before.

Levitt and Streeter's cigarettes were also left inside the house.

Janis frantically called police from the home's telephone to report the three women missing; after placing the call, while checking the phone's answering machine, she listened to a "strange message", but it was inadvertently erased from the tape.

Police were "very interested" in the call and believed it "may have contained a clue".

They also did not believe it was connected to the prank calls Kirby received.

McCall's parents contacted police in reference to their daughter's disappearance from Levitt's home more than sixteen hours after the women were last seen, and other worried friends and family called and visited the house the following day.

Police later estimated that the crime scene had been corrupted by ten to twenty people who visited Levitt's house.

Upon the officers' arrival, the scene showed no signs of a struggle, except for the shattered porch light.

Police also noted Levitt's bed had been slept in.

All personal property was left behind including purses, money, cars, keys, cigarettes, and the family dog.

The Springfield Three refers to an unsolved missing persons case that began on June 7, 1992, when friends Suzanne "Suzie" Streeter and Stacy McCall, and Streeter's mother, Sherrill Levitt, went missing from Levitt's home in Springfield, Missouri, United States.

All of their personal belongings, including cars and purses, were left behind.

There were no signs of a struggle except a broken porch light globe; there was also a message on the answering machine that police believe might have provided a clue about the disappearances, but it was inadvertently erased.

Streeter and McCall graduated from Kickapoo High School on June 6, 1992.

They were last seen at around 2:00 a.m. on June 7, when they were leaving the last of the few graduation parties they had attended that evening.

At some point during the night, they were also seen in Battlefield.

On December 31, 1992, a man called the America's Most Wanted hotline with information about the women's disappearances, but the call was disconnected when the switchboard operator attempted to link up with Springfield investigators.

Police said the caller had "prime knowledge of the abductions" and publicly appealed for the man to contact them, but he never did.

In 1997, Robert Craig Cox, a convicted kidnapper and robber, claimed that he knew the women had been murdered and that their bodies would never be recovered.

Neither their whereabouts nor their remains have ever been discovered.

No investigators in the case believe Cox has any credibility.

Sherrill Elizabeth Levitt was 47 years old at the time of her disappearance.

She was 5 ft, 110 lb, with short light blonde hair, brown eyes and pierced ears.

She was a cosmetologist at a local salon, and was a single mother reportedly very close to her daughter, Suzanne Elizabeth "Suzie" Streeter.

Streeter was 19 years old and 5 ft, 102 lb, with shoulder length blonde hair and brown eyes.

Her distinguishable marks included a scar on her upper right forearm, a small mole on the left corner of her mouth, and pierced ears (left ear pierced twice).

Stacy Kathleen McCall was 18 years old, was 5 ft and 120 lb, with long dark blonde hair and light colored eyes.

Levitt and Streeter were declared legally dead in 1997.

However, their case files are still officially filed under "missing".

Investigators received a tip that the women's bodies were buried in the foundations of the south parking garage at Cox Hospital.
