Fredia Louise Franks


Above: Franks, circa 2001


Vital Statistics at Time of Disappearance

Missing Since: August 17, 2001 from Arkansas
Classification: Endangered Missing
Date Of Birth: February 18, 1957
Age: 44 years old
Height and Weight: 5'6, 120 pounds
Distinguishing Characteristics: Biracial (Caucasian/Native American) female. Brown hair, brown eyes. Franks's hair is naturally curly. Some agencies may spell her first name "Freda."


Details of Disappearance

Franks resided in Neosho, Missouri in 2001. She went camping with her friend, Mark Walsh, and an 11-year-old female child on August 17, 2001. The group was traveling in a 34-foot motor home. They stayed in a campground near Table Rock Lake in Arkansas shortly after embarking on the trip. Authorities believe that the group drove to the Beaver Lake area in northwest Arkansas afterwards. Franks has never been heard from again.
Walsh and the child arrived in Rule, Arkansas near Green Forest on September 9, 2001. Franks was not accompanying them at the time. Walsh was arrested shortly thereafter and charged with abducting the child, as well as statutory rape and sodomy. The girl told investigators that she believed she saw a decomposing body inside one of the cabins she and Walsh visited, but she was unable to recall the location of the building. Foul play is suspected in Franks's case due to the circumstances surrounding her disappearance.

Arkansas authorities are handling Franks's investigation.

The Old Heifer! An oxymoron, of course.
