What Happened to Kim Amero?

 

On September 3rd, 1985, Kimberly Ann Amero was last seen at the Exhibition (Town Fair) in Saint John, New Brunswick. It was exactly 48 hours from her 16th birthday. While some people believe that she simply ran away, others believe that something more sinister happened to Kim, which prevented her from going home that night. She is described as 5'6" in height, 115lbs, dark blonde, with blue eyes. She is listed as an Endangered Runaway. 

She had gone to the Exhibition with her sister Tammy, and two friends. Tammy was grounded and therefore she had to be home before the fireworks display that night. Kim had chosen to stay to watch the fireworks with her two friends. Kim had left her friends for a quick errand. Kim has not been seen or heard from again. That was over 30 years ago. If you research the disappearance of Kim on the internet, you will find a lot of rumors and speculation about what happened to her. However, no one knows what happened to Kim after she left her friends that night - or at least no one who is talking. 

There are of course 4 theories on the internet. 

Theory #1

Kim ran away

Theory #2

Her death was an accident, and those involved are keeping quiet

Theory #3

She was abducted by a stranger, and only that stranger knows where she is. 

Theory #4

She went willingly with someone

The interesting thing about this case is that psychics and serial killers have claimed to know her whereabouts over the years, but there have been no results in the information they have provided. There have been people who have taken advantage of the family's pain, and have given false claims of knowing information that might surround the disappearance of Kim, and it has always turned up as nothing. This is heartbreaking. 

However, the case has taken a darker turn, which started with yet another "nutter" who claims to know the whereabouts of Kim and has been playing a cat and mouse game with the family ever since. His name is Randy, and there are a few interesting facts about him. 

He lived near the Exhibition grounds around the time that Kim went missing, and Kim used to babysit for his ex. Randy has been claiming to be a psychic, and claims that he's had visits from Kim over the years. However, there have been a few strange things about this Randy guy, that just doesn't make any sense. 

His story keeps changing

Sent a recording to the family

Sent a letter to the family

It is believed that Randy either has had something to do with Kim's disappearance or he at least knows something. He brought this attention on himself and we need to ask the question does he know something, or is he too looking for a little bit of fame and that's why he has inserted himself in the case. 

According to Randy, he was hunting in Upham when he heard a scream, and he actually saw Kim running away from someone. He says he witnessed someone strike the girl and the screaming stopped. In another one of his stories, Kim told him how she died when he did a Psychic reading. 

Randy claims to know where Kim is and says that she is buried at the base of a burned-out cabin, in Upham. In the recording to the family, he gives the specific location of her whereabouts. With an assortment of details that he shouldn't know unless he had something to do with it. In the letter, he points blame at someone else and plays the victim. It is really hard to tell if Randy was involved, or if he simply knows a little too much and is scared to come forward with information.
