Cheryl Ann Scherer disappeared from her workplace on the morning of April 17, 1979 and was never seen again. With few leads to go off of Henry Lee Lucas ultimately became the suspect of choice. Scott County (Missouri) Sheriff Bill Ferrell traveled to Texas in 1983 to question Lucas about the disappearance after hearing about all of his confessed slayings. Lucas stated he didn't recognize Cheryl as someone he had ever met, and dismissed the notion that he could be tied to the crime. Lucas's name was however tagged to the file and remains the primary suspect to this day. This case has been brought back into the spotlight as of September 16th, 2019 when the FBI, state and local Scott County law enforcement dug for Cheryl's body on a property in Benton, Missouri. The results of the search were unsuccessful. Listen to our new episode and let us know if you think Henry did the crime, or if one piece of paper can knock out Scott County's #1 suspect.
