Start with what the record supports

What is verified

Two schoolmates

The FBI says Pamela and Patricia were schoolmates and may have skipped school together.

Documented clothing

Pamela was listed in a white fur-like coat with brown trim, plaid skirt, ruffled-cuff blouse, white knee socks, and chunky shoes.

What remains unknown

The federal listing says neither girl had a purse or identification and that foul play is suspected.

About the Halloween connection: Halloween is the date Pamela and Patricia were reported missing. The FBI record does not describe costumes or a Halloween event.
