Debra Jean Houston, 29: Missing From Texas Since 1989

Original Story:
Sadly, once again, there is very little known about another case. This story comes from Houston, Texas, and is about a missing 29-year-old woman named Debra Jean Houston. Her personal affairs, work-life, family, and social relationships are unknown, as no news reports about her case exist.
All that has been shared is that Debra vanished from Houston on December 25, Christmas Day, back in 1989. She was said to have been last seen at Hughes Lounge that day, but whether she was an employee or a patron is unknown. Additionally, it is unclear if authorities are treating Debra’s case as an endangered missing person, if they believe foul play was involved, or if any other contributing factors may have aided in her going missing.
