Missing: Kimberly Nicole Arrington

Kimberly Nicole Arrington was just 16 years old when she disappeared from Montgomery, Alabama. She was last seen on October 31, 1998, when she left to go to a nearby store. Kimberly has a scar on her abdomen and her ears are pierced. Her nicknames are Kim and Kiwi.

Despite years without news, her family has not given up. Her dad still waits for her to come home. Her sister has named her child after her. Kim Arrington’s mother, who was ill, unfortunately died in 2005 without knowing what happened to her daughter. Dad remembers “a good girl” who enjoyed listening to music, enjoyed dancing, and learning about computers at school. She didn’t cause any troubles.

On the afternoon of Oct. 30, 1998, Kimberly left her home. She went to the CVS Pharmacy on Forest Avenue in Montgomery to pick up some candy and soda. This store was close to her house. She never made it to the store. There is no trace of her. Someone people think she stopped to give a person directions. Maybe she was forced into a car. However, nobody saw anything. No witnesses, nothing. I always wondered about CCTV camera’s from nearby stores, ATM machine, gas stations, etc.

According to NamUs, Kim was wearing an emerald ring with two diamonds. I wish we had a picture of that ring.

You can find more information about this case on NamUs, link here, and age progression photograph at Missing Kids.

If you have any information, contact Det. John Edwards with the Montgomery Police Department at 1-334-241-2790 or the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children at 1-800-THE-LOST.

Author Notes

Since 2009, I write about unsolved cases that need renewed media attention. I only do research and leave active investigations to the authorities.

My posts cover homicides, missing and unidentified people, wrongful convictions, and forensics as related to unsolved cases.

On book reviews: I only review select works of true crime, crime fiction, and historical fiction/mysteries. The stories have to fit my website's theme, tone, and research. It is my prerogative to not review a book. Please check the FAQ page for more.

My databases are free to the public. Cases are sorted by the victim’s last name.

If you have any questions about my website please check the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page, the About page, and the tabs in both menu bars. If you cannot find the answers there, please contact me.

Thank you,

Alice de Sturler
