I don't know if this can help someone, but I came out of a 24 hour grocery years ago, and a flashy car was parked outside. When I got into my car to leave, it followed me. I took circuitous routes just to see if I was being followed, and I determined that I was. I ended up turning off my headlights and parked in the police station parking lot. I saw the guy cruising, not understanding what had happened to my car, how he had let it get away. There are bad people. Find a way to get away.

Of all the cases on “Unsolved Mysteries” this is the one I remember the most. What a horrible situation. During his interview, you can see and feel the pain Rob felt that he didn’t get to her.

Is it just me or does anyone else watch Dr. Grande's videos before bed? They are soooo interesting and relaxing, even though most of the stories are unsettling. Thanks Dr. Grande for all you do! Wishing you and your family the very best!

I was at at junction waiting to turn left next to a Ute with p plates and two young men sitting in the truck about to turn right. Without warning they turned left after I did and it became obvious after a couple of miles they were following me. This was in the middle of the day. I was making turns without indicating and they were on my tail. It was very scary and I knew I couldn’t go home because the street would have been quiet with everyone at work. I just started to drive to a police station and as soon as they realised where I was going they disappeared.

Sounds plausible to me, the predator circling and then snatching his prey, the panicked boyfriend rushing to the scene a lot faster than the cops could have been there, the chase interrupted by an American car malfunctioning. She didn’t retreat to her car because she didn’t realise she was in danger, and neither did her boyfriend - they were just trying to be helpful to the guy.

How Devastating for Rob, to be so close, and then, a break down!

To me, it's beyond Terrifying the way these Innocent Women were Kidnapped!

I remember seeing this story when I was young. I would have been 17 I guess. I also remember seeing something on it years later and thinking "Mercy, they never caught the guy." I think it was Unsolved Mysteries or something along those lines. It always stuck with me, she would have been near my age and the supposed near miss with the boyfriend. I just hope whatever happened to her happened quick.

It doesnt sound implausible to me. She stayed on the phone instead of retreating to her car because she was on the phone with possible help. And rob might not have called the cops because he was hurrying to make it to the scene. This was all before cell phones.

What an absolute nightmare for Rob and Angie’s family. I’m glad that you are bringing attention to this case. Her loved ones deserve answers and she deserves justice

I grew up and still live in Clinton. I remember going up town to watch them film the unsolved mysteries episode. Thanks for covering this.

I think Rob’s story is believable, sometimes life is stranger than what we see in films.

It is an instinctive thing to rush immediately to the aid of someone you love, especially in familiar surroundings of your home town. When Angie was snatched, presumably the line was still open and as she'd initiated the call, even if Rob had hung up and tried to call the cops, he couldn't have got through unless the phone in the paybooth had been hung up and freed the line. I think the poor kid likely tried to dash to his girlfriend's rescue and a panicky young driver could feasibly wreck a gearbox. Just an awful thing to happen to Angie, Rob and their families. A frustrating mystery. Thanks for the video.

We had a case locally where a man was saved from a kidnapping and a murder charge becaue the telephone company saved his payphone call information from a half a century ago!!!😢

Was this on unsolved mysteries about 20ish years ago? This case always haunted me. I saw the videos years ago on you tube and was surprised how many others said the same thing. Hope this brings more awareness and answers.

Thanks for the upload, Dr. Grande! I just got my 2023 flu shot. Bought some backup food just in case: Lebanese lamb and hummus, beef curry, chicken vindaloo, and Dr. Pepper plus Pepsi.

It makes sense he would drop the phone and suddenly go there. He probably believed, and was probably right about it, that he could respond much more rapidly. By the time he got through to a dispatcher and explained things, he could already be there. And who knows how long it would have taken police to respond? When I was in high school I was strong enough to lift the back of my girlfriends car and move the rear of the car out of its parking space as a joke. And this guy played football. He had good reason to think he could win in a physical confrontation.

Imagine thinking that an isolated phone booth is an appropriate place to just have a full conversation when you could go to a house that is more secure to have your long phone conversations. She should have just gone home and had a bath.

Dr. Grande, we’re all waiting for your analysis of the “boy in the box” trial with Tim Ferriter. I have a feeling it involves the parents’ fanatic religious beliefs, which allowed them to channel their sadistic impulses. Tim was so convinced of his innocence he even turn down a plea deal. Looking forward to your thoughts.

Very interesting case, I can only imagine what this poor woman may have went through, being taken by some deranged creep. Watching an episode of Unsolved Mysteries as a little girl gave me a fear of being kidnapped, which has stuck with me my entire life. 😳 Thank you for another great analysis, Dr. Grande!! I love your videos and thank you for all of the hard work you put in to post new ones every day, it definitely doesn't go unnoticed.❤️

Its Dr.Grande time!!! I work as a nurse and had the LONGEST DAY EVER...this is the best surprise for my evening relaxation time ❤

Oh my gosh, what a very strange case. Thanks for covering this, Dr. Grande. Have yourself a great weekend!

I feel all of the reasons that Angela didn’t take the precautions is because she was so close to home and where her boyfriends parents house was. She probably felt safe and though nothing would happen to her so close to home.

Well...I sure feel safer now that all the phone booths are gone. When you think about it, that would be a perfect place for someone to find his next victim. But, now that many young women are walking around with their heads down looking at their phones, today's generation might prove to make for an even easier target.

How can a young man move on from this? A part of hime saying after a few years "she must be dead" and another part saying "keep looking". What a terrible situation. He also lost his unborn child to murder 😢

I remembered this case from day 1. I think she was taken from that phone booth. Its so sad that she has never been found. RIP Angie🕊🕊🕊

This is one of the scariest stories that the series *_Unsolved Mysteries_* ever covered. I think this is a clear case of a serial killer that either was caught and hasn't admitted to this, or something along those lines.

I was pregnant with my son in 1991. Very sad. I hope that Angie is found and that she gets the justice she and her family deserve. 🙏🙏🙏🌈🕊️🕊️🕊️

This is such a bizarre case, I’m glad you’re talking about this Dr. Grande, keep up the great work. Take care!

It's was very brave of him trying to save her from the creep

Very informative especially the shocking mistaken identity 😢

Alliteration opportunity missed: the perp in the pickup prowled the pay phone participant…

Yea I remember this case on “Unsolved Mysteries”, always wondered what happened to her, I don’t think the police will ever solve this one 😢

I watched this on Trace Evidence Podcast. Glad you are talking about it.

I remember this Heartbreaking, and Terrifying Case! And I agree with the comment, it's Haunting!🥀🥀🥀🙏🙏🙏🕊️🕊️🕊️

No Justice, after all these years! How Heartbreaking to live with that?🥀🥀🥀🕊️🕊️🕊️🙏🙏🙏

Safety first. Don’t put yourself at risk. Look hard and look twice Don’t be a victim.

A phone booth. Is that a booth with a phone in it? Asking for my buddy.

@7:23 Gave me a jump scare. Are there no images of this poor woman where it appears he’s not missing her eyeballs??!!

Even back in the day when I was a prolific phone booth occupant, I would never stand in a phone booth in an isolated parking lot late at night. It seems curious to me that Angela was too tired to go to Rob's parent's house and keep him company while he babysat but wasn't too tired to stand in a phone booth and chat him up. Very suspicious to me.

Thank you for yet another excellent story and analysis, Dr. Grande.❤ I watch your videos every day and I find them informative and interesting.❤ Your videos are calming, too. We appreciate you.

You are so insightful!! I Love your assessment!!! Great job as Always!!

The case of Julian Sands? Perhaps?

I'm loving the title! I'm also seeing some comments inquiring as to if a phone booth is a booth with a phone in it 😄 Showing our age here

I’m early early. 13mins you’ve posted and I’ve opened to KZfaq to listen to what I’ve missed from you and this gift is here 😅 awaiting for my ears to devour this story.

Angie must have been quite concerned to have given such a full description of the man, his clothes and his flashlight to Rob?

Dr. Todd Grande ~ I see you are a fan of cacti. My late grand mother & grand father many, many, many moons ago raised cacti & sold them in San Jose, California. Then moved to Oahu, Hawaii where she dabbled a little still in retirement. It was a sticky & sharply pointed business they had. One day I did get the point of her business. Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha.

I live and breathe for that sweet sweet analysis

Dr Grande would be the best guy to tell you you have 20 seconds to comply

I’m pregnant with twins and I’m pretty sure they know your voice better than mine! 😂❤

A true scary story for the kids of today. And not just the abduction part haha I used to dislike the enclosed phone booths for just this reason, I felt like if someone were to try something I would be trapped and it would be really difficult to hold the door closed while trying to call 911 on the payphone. Thank you for your analysis Dr Grande. I agree with your analysis and I'm glad you think it's more likely to have been someone other than Angie's fiance, Rob, and presumably her unborn baby's father. Very sad story.

Excellent timing ! Much thanks Dr G ❤

I know this case and don't think anything about the boyfriends account is fantastical. He lived very close to the phone booth, ran out the door, drove towarrd it and passed them along the way. Only the part about hearing her yell he name is unlikely, but possible. She really should have just left right away but she didn't .

As a girl who sometimes walks past scary people at night being on the phone with my husband makes me feel safer because I feel like I have an ally if something were to go wrong. I would not want to give that up to walk alone past the man in the dark back to my car.

Hi Dr. Grande! Another great video! Can you do Sante Kimes too? That is one that always haunted me.

I have your channel notifications on, but how the FRIGGGGGGGGG did I miss this 3 days ago? One of my favorite Unsolved Mysteries episodes and cases ever.

Hi Dr. Grande. Will you consider the new arrest in Tupac Shakur's murder? Duane "Keefe D" Davis. He's been self-snitching for years. Anyway, thanks for all you do. I'm always tuned in...

Another strange case. Doubt the wrong identity theory, seems unlikely. Agree with your summary & points. Thanks Dr G😊💜💜

Perfect timing, can relax a little before bed!

I believe this story and wish that this case would be solved. Poor Angie and baby.

This case has stuck with me for a long time because of how disturbing the events are and also that sketch of the kidnapper it terrified me for some reason, although worth mentioning that the sketch does not show him with a beard like she had described to her boyfriend

I don't know where Dr. Grande is from, but trucks at that time, with those decals, were a dime a dozen where I lived in the West. It sounds like they were common in this rural area as well, as the list was over 1600 vehicles. As for why Angie kept talking on the phone? That's what young people do, particularly women. They were in love, and probably meant to keep hanging up and started on a new topic. Angie didn't imagine she could be in any serious danger, so it didn't occur to her to get in her vehicle and go somewhere safer. This was a small town where she probably either knew or knew of most of the bad actors in a 20 mile radius. She just didn't recognize what to do in time.

Dr. Grande, I request you do a video on Boyd and Stephanie Householder of the former Circle of Hope Girl's Ranch in Cedar County, MO. Maybe even one for the Agape boys boarding school closure as well in the same county. I feel these are prime material for your type of discussion. Thank you.

Wild times it was before cell phones. Imagine the countless other crimes & situations we never knew about because he didn't have that phone in our possession.

Thank You for your Analysis, as always, and so much information about this that I never knew.

You are absolutely right that’s what I was thinking, I wonder what conditions it was really in

This story is more believable than a near-catastrophic, 80 MPH chase in downtown New York.

Thanks for the upload Dr. Grande ❤

If the perp went out cruising with the intention of finding the victim, then he may have traveled some distance from his home in order to avoid being recognized. If he was local, they probably interviewed him. How many trucks could there have been with that design on the rear window?

That store is called Food Barn, may be that man was a delivery driver, familiar to that outlet? He was described as dirty, and drove a pickup truck...green is kind of "grocer friendly" color in my opinion! Hopefully, the Police checked out all the work crew - because the fish decoupage also points to food!

Many years ago, my husband drove me to my parents’ house so I could borrow a car for class the next day. We drove separately home, obviously, but left at the same time. At a stop light, I noticed a white pickup in the lane right next to me. Didn’t think anything of it until I noticed it move in behind me. It was still there as I turned into my apartment complex. I arrived just behind my husband and yelled for him to wait for me. The truck had stopped in the street at the entrance (no gates; we were close to the front; one lane each direction-he would’ve been blocking traffic during the day). My husband was puzzled why I called for him to wait but when he looked towards the truck, it was already pulling away. I know he was following me & if my husband hadn’t been right there, who knows what would’ve happened.

Rob had zero to do with her disappearance. Additionally, Angela did not have a home phone. Because Rob still lived at home and was in school, it's possible he wasn't allowed to have guests at the house after a certain hour. He was at home watching his younger brother at the time of Angela's call.

I've watched other info on this case. I've always heard that there were many trucks in the area with a fish sticker on their back window.

It sounds believable. People distrust victims, not perpetrators. The fact that people treat him like that would make me believe him already.

This was a standout unsolved mysteries episode. The reenactment gives me the creeps to this day.

Good evening 🌆🌌, Dr. Grande!🙋🤗😊 How are you doing? Great, I like to think 🤔! Thank You!

I think you’re on the money with this one Dr. Grande. Rob likely was telling the truth but probably embellished it somewhat to portray himself as more heroic.

Always interesting Thank you Peace

Really sad case. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us, Dr. Grande.❤

Thank you for finally doing this case

Yes king go off

Every other woman in ours town is named Angie, Angela, Angelica, Angelina, Angelique, Angel,

I now go back to the beginning to witness the fine, expressive eye movements! They say volumes! 👀

I think Rob was telling the truth. This is just bizarre

❤Thank you Doc❤Sending LOVE, please pass it on❤❤❤

Tune in next week to Dr. Grande, when you'll hear Dr. Grande say:

The creep could have really called somebody. I wonder if the police even checked the phone records for that payphone?

I thought she dropped off her friend, wouldn't that have been the last person to see her alive?

the pronunciation of nevada is very missouri

Dr. Grande I respect your opinions and so was so glad to see that you are covering this case to shed light. This is one of the most haunting stories I have ever heard of over the years- I pray Angie's family gets the answers they deserve one day.

A very strange case (but the fact that others verified the pickup truck and the "mysterious man" suggests that Rob was indeed telling the truth). I'd wish you a good weekend, Dr. Grande, but I know you probably have more videos to post (you never seem to take a break). Thanks, as always!

This is why I don't stand outside at pay phones at 12 midnight. I don't want to be confused with someone else. In the dark Oh and that there literally no more pay phones

Muchas gracias.

Did the police trace the call the perp may have called?

No one has ever commented on seeing a vehicle like this? No repair shops?

I don't know why she was calling Rob when his parents place was so near.

AHHHH This was on unsolved mysteries!!! didnt the bf claim she got kidnapped and the truck had a painting of a fish out of water on its back window?!?!?! man that one freaked me out...at age 10...lol i think the bf found the truck with her struggling in it and he tried to rescue her but his transmission failed...

I’m painting you, Dr. Grande. I’m making a portrait.

No kidnapper would place a grown woman unrestrained beside him on the passenger seat... where she was fighting him, and also managed to spot her boyfriend's car approaching, and audibly screamed his name through the open driver's window.

Excellent video, Doctor Grande !!! --- I'm wondering: ..What if the scruffy overalls/old truck guy was misleadingly disguised, and actually was part of a sophisticated human trafficking group?
