About
Sandra Vernell Bush
Twenty-one-year-old Sandra Bush left her home on the southeast side of Fort Worth at about 6:45 p.m. Nov. 17, 1983. She didn’t tell her family where she was going, but she did say she’d be right back. The next day, her Chevy Monte Carlo was found parked outside a bar on the north end of Fort Worth. Her family said she rarely went to bars and never went to a bar on that side of town. Her car had been wiped clean of fingerprints, and blood stains were in the front passenger seat. A bloody pillowcase was also found in the car. Sandra’s partially nude body was discovered approximately two months later in a field on the northern edge of town, just a few miles from where they found her car. Sandra had been strangled with a cord.
