case details:
The Anderson Siblings were last seen in Fulton, Mississippi in April of 2000. Originally, it was reported by the man that they were living with that Lesley and the children left with a truck driver in the middle of the night one night. The stories that this man gave continued to change. One being that they may have been with their non-custodial mother in a brown 1981 Chevrolet Caprice station wagon. However, that vehicle was discovered parked in a field near the residence that they were staying at months after they disappeared.
After years of attempting to get answers and seek justice, The Andersons’ father was able to get school records that showed Rachel did not return to school after April 5th, 2000. Kyle did not return to school after April 7th, 2000. And Cameron did not return to school after April 10th, 2000. All of the dates for the children’s last known date of last contact differ; however, none of the children have been seen or heard from since April of 2000. Their mother, Lesley Allen Anderson, also disappeared in April 2000.
——-
The Andersons’ mother and father split up in 1997. Jeff Anderson moved to Rising Sun, Indiana and Lesley Allen Anderson moved to Itawamba County, Mississippi. Jeff Anderson had legally adopted Lesley’s older children, Chris, Stephanie, and Greg. Jeff and Lesley also had three children of their own, Rachel, Cameron, and Kyle.
When Jeff and Lesley separated, Chris was old enough to move out on his own and did so. Stephanie and Greg, who are both mentally handicapped moved to Mississippi with their mother. Rachel, Cameron, and Kyle also moved with their mother to Mississippi.
In the divorce agreement, it was decided that the children were to call their father every Saturday. The calls became less and less frequent over time. Jeff Anderson was attempting to work out details for his visitation with the children during the summer of 2000, so he tried making contact and was told that Lesley had left with the children and had not told anyone where she was planning to go. Lesley’s roommate told Jeff that she left with a truck driver and had also left Stephanie and Greg behind in his care.
The vehicle that Lesley supposedly was driving at the time was later seen on the land where she and her children were living in Itawamba County. Few details are available regarding the disappearance of Lesley Anderson and her children.
