Details of Disappearance: On the evening of February 23, 1999, Star Boomer was a patron of Uncle Mike’s Bar at 49th and Metropolitan in Kansas City, Kansas. Star had gone to the bar with her roommate. The friend had a drink and headed home, planning to return in a few hours to pick Star up. When she arrived at the bar, she was told that Star had left with two men. Witnesses at the bar stated that Star was involved in a violent altercation with a man believed to be lifelong criminal with a history of violent behavior, particularly toward women. At one point during the evening, Star allegedly was knocked to the ground, causing her to lose consciousness. On February 28, the roommate reported to police that her friend was missing. Investigators state that it is believed that Star was killed in the bar and her body was dumped elsewhere. Two men were arrested and charged with second degree murder, but were later released and charges were dismissed because witnesses did not come forth. Star has not been seen or heard from since that night.
