Disappearance of Laureen Rahn height - How tall is Disappearance of Laureen Rahn?

In the months after her disappearance, Judith received numerous phone calls from an unidentified caller, several of which were placed from motels in Santa Ana and Santa Monica, California. Law enforcement uncovered that one of these motels had been suspected of hosting the production of child pornography, but it was never confirmed that Rahn had been at either motel. Her mother continued to receive anonymous calls in the ensuing years before eventually changing her phone number. As of 2020, Rahn's disappearance remains unsolved.

Six weeks after Rahn's disappearance, Denise Daneault, a young woman who lived two blocks from the Rahn residence, went missing from a bar in Manchester. Decades later, police determined that suspected serial killer Terry Peder Rasmussen was living in the area under the pseudonym "Bob Evans." Rasmussen later pleaded guilty to murdering his wife in California in 2003, and died in 2010. Authorities believe Rasmussen may have been involved in as many as five more murders and/or disappearances, including that of Denise Beaudin, who vanished in Goffstown in 1981 and was never found, as well as the Bear Brook murders, which refers to four female murder victims found in the Bear Brook State Park between 1985 and 2000. One of the victims was his biological daughter.

Judith hired a private investigator to visit California in 1986, who located the motels from which the October 1980 phone calls had been placed. Local police in Santa Monica stated that one of the motels may have been used as a filming location by a child pornographer known as "Dr. Z"; however, law enforcement was unable to link Dr. Z to the hotline. The same year, a childhood friend of Rahn's named Roger Maurais received a phone call from a woman who claimed to be "Laurie" or Laureen. Maurais's mother answered the phone call and stated that the woman claimed to have been her son's former girlfriend.

Throughout 1981, Judith claimed to have received numerous mysterious phone calls from an unknown individual, which she always received at approximately 3:45 a.m. During these calls, Judith claimed the caller never spoke. The phone calls continued for several years after Rahn's disappearance, increasing in frequency during the Christmas holiday. The calls eventually stopped after she changed her phone number several years after Rahn's disappearance.

In 1981, after the receipt of the October 1980 phone calls, a family member of Rahn's claimed to have seen her at a bus terminal in Boston, Massachusetts; this sighting remains unconfirmed. Another unconfirmed sighting occurred in 1988, when a witness claimed to have seen a prostitute in Anchorage, Alaska, who matched Rahn's description.

On the evening of April 26, 1980, Laureen Rahn was left to stay home at the residence she shared with her mother, a third-floor apartment on Merrimack Street in Manchester, New Hampshire. Her mother, Judith, was spending the evening attending an out-of-town tennis match with her boyfriend. Rahn, who was on spring break at the time, invited one male and one female friend over, and the three drank beer and wine together. At some point during the evening, Rahn's male friend heard voices in the apartment building's hallways, and exited the apartment through a back door, assuming that Rahn's mother was returning home and that he would get in trouble if he was found there. The male friend stated that he heard Rahn lock the door behind him as he left.

On October 1, 1980, Judith found she had been charged for three phone calls placed in California; she did not have friends or relatives there, and Rahn had never had any ties to the area. Two calls were placed from a motel in Santa Monica, and another from a motel in Santa Ana, the latter of which was made to a teen sexual assistance hotline. Detectives spoke with the physician who maintained the hotline, and he initially denied having known anything of the call. Five years later, in 1985, the physician changed his story: He claimed that numerous young women and runaways occasionally visited his wife at their home, and that one of the girls may have been Rahn. He also stated that Annie Sprinkle, a sex educator and former pornographic actress who allegedly knew his wife, might have had information regarding Rahn's disappearance and those of other runaway girls. However, law enforcement was unable to find any evidence linking Sprinkle to Rahn's disappearance.

Sometime after the mid-1980s, Judith remarried and relocated to Florida. She has stated that she believes her daughter placed the phone calls from California in October 1980. The unnamed male friend who was drinking alcohol with Rahn the night she disappeared committed suicide in 1985, though law enforcement never considered him a suspect in her disappearance. Investigators assigned to Rahn's case have stated they believe foul play is involved.
