Police affidavits and charging documents detail a chilling timeline of 19-year-old Dacara Thompson’s final hours, revealing how the Prince George’s County woman vanished after texting her father she would be home soon and ultimately turned up dead more than a week later.
Court filings show her white Ford Edge was found abandoned on August 24 in Hyattsville, Maryland. Inside were her purse and belongings, but her phone and key fob were missing. Surveillance footage showed Thompson walking away from the SUV and approaching a black GMC Yukon Denali in a nearby parking lot. She spoke briefly with the driver before climbing into the passenger seat.
