This week, Crime Stoppers and the Sangamon County Sheriff’s Office is asking for the public’s help in the disappearance of 22-year-old Brenda Bottoms. 

 In June of 1987, Brenda was reported missing.  She was last seen getting into a brown car that was driven by a white male on North 5th Street in Auburn, Illinois.

Investigators have recently received information that led them to believe Brenda knew the male subject who was driving the car and the persons who are responsible for her disappearance. 

Crime Stoppers and the Sheriff’s Office is encouraging anyone with information on the subjects or the circumstances of Brenda’s disappearance to call Crime Stoppers at 217-788-8427, submit a tip on this website or use the P3 app. 

If your tip results in an arrest, you could receive a cash reward. 

Remember, Crime Stoppers is completely anonymous, so we only want your information, not your name.
