BURLINGTON, Wis. (WFRV) – Friday, Dec. 6, marks the 35th anniversary of Kerry A. O’Brien-Krueger’s disappearance in Wisconsin.
On Dec. 7, 1989, O’Brien-Krueger was reported missing by her husband, Tracey Krueger, and her parents. Tracey told police that on the evening of Dec. 5, 1989, Kerry received a phone call from work asking her to attend a trade show the next day for a coworker who was unable to go.

According to Tracey, the trade show was out of state, and Kerry agreed to attend. He said she left their home in Burlington around 4 a.m. on Dec. 6, 1989, for a flight out of Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport.
However, Kerry’s supervisor later reported that no trade shows were scheduled, and no employees, including Kerry, were assigned to attend one.
Kerry has not been seen or heard from since. She was 31 at the time of her disappearance and left behind a three-year-old daughter. Her family said she would not have left voluntarily.
Anyone with information about Kerry O’Brien-Krueger’s disappearance is urged to contact the Racine County Sheriff’s Office.
