It was 4:00 a.m. when a neighbor of 33-year-old Nefertiri Trader peeked out of their second-story New Castle, Delaware, bedroom window and saw a man lugging and placing her into the back seat of her 2000 silver Acura (Delaware license plate 404893). The man was wearing tan shorts and a dark hooded sweatshirt. That neighbor later told police that they assumed that Nefertiri was ill and the man was getting her into the car to take her to the hospital. That was June 30, 2014. Nefertiri has never been seen or heard from since.
A Puzzling Scene At Nefertiri’s Home
Meanwhile, Nefertiri’s mother, Denise Trader, began worrying after multiple calls to Nefertiri went unanswered. Denise sent Nefertiri’s cousin to her daughter’s home, and the relative found a pack of Newport cigarettes and an untouched cup of coffee on a chair on the porch, along with an unopened condom. A loaf of bread lay on the front lawn that looked as if it had been stomped on, and near her front door were her flip-flops, one right next to the other.
