Harold Leach died last week at age 79 not knowing the fate of his son, Randy Leach, whose disappearance nearly 33 years ago remains a mystery.
Media accounts published after 17-year-old Randy Leach vanished with his mother s car in April 1988 suggested he d been killed by members of a Satanic cult after attending a graduation party in rural Leavenworth County.
Relatives and friends hoped the mystery would be solved Wednesday as they watched live video on The Capital-Journal s Facebook page showing a submerged car being pulled out of Lake Perry. Please let this be Randy s car God, Julie Jack-Spencer wrote in a comment on that page. This is my step cousin. Family needs some kind of closure.
