Read below to find out how one of the most gorgeous model and actress was accidently murdered in the city of Los Angeles.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Linda Sobek was a stunning five-foot-four-inch blonde actress and model whose career was just getting started when she vanished without a trace.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The <\/span>27 year old actress<\/span> was scheduled to appear in the FOX sitcom \u201cMarried…With Children\u201d which she hoped would serve as a springboard for the acting career she had always dreamed of, but she was unable to make it to her costume fitting on time.<\/span><\/p>\n She started <\/span>working as a model<\/span><\/a> after she graduated from Cerritos Community College. Her five-year tenure as a Los Angeles Raiderette cheerleader (during which she was voted Raiderette of the Year during her third year) helped her cover her bills in the meantime.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Linda Sobek was not tall enough to be a high-end fashion model. She was only five-feet four-inches tall, but her attractive appearance and her curvy size-three figure earned her “body-model” work, which included swimwear layouts, calendars, car magazines, catalogues, beer posters, and advertisements for Frederick’s of Hollywood.<\/span><\/p>\n On November 16, 1995, Linda called her mother to tell her she was running late for a photo session and she promised her that she\u2019ll call her back to discuss weekend plans at the Sobek family home. There was no trace of Linda after that call.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Linda Sobek was most renowned for her dependability, which she had in addition to her natural beauty and effervescent attitude. Consequently, when she failed to contact Elaine (her mother) that evening, she got worried right away.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n She had a nervous evening and decided to call Brooke Morales, one of Linda’s closest friends, to ask if she knows where Linda is. Brooke made some calls and got to know that Linda had failed to appear for many appointments that had been set for later in the day on November 16, including a costume fitting for the television programme “Married With Children,”.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n After getting to know about Linda\u2019s disappearance from work, Brook and Elaine decided to contact police.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The authorities tried getting some information from her roommates in The Hermosa Beach House, but unfortunately they had no clue about Linda. Noone including her friends, roommates, family or the staff from her daytime photoshoot knew where she was.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n On Saturday, 18th November,1995 (two days after Linda went missing) Brooke and Linda\u2019s roommates reached out to television and other media outlets to ask for their assistance in getting the news of Linda’s abduction out in the public.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n It was a news broadcast that aired on Sunday that proved to be the breaking point in the investigation. On Saturday, the same day Brooke was attempting to get Linda’s news out into the public, a road-crew member in the Angeles National Forest found an unexpected item in a garbage can. He discovered a stockpile of Linda\u2019s images, a date book, and a receipt for the leasing of a Lexus 450 vehicle.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n He took the photographs and the other found stuff home with him, completely disregarding them, until he heard a news story on Sunday and realised that the attractive girl depicted on the television was the same pretty lady featured in the images he had found earlier that day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n He notified the police, and told them how he found the date book and Lexus receipt in a garbage bin. The name Charles Rathbun was printed on the receipt.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Charles Rathbun was a 38-year-old freelance photographer who was born in Ohio and resided in Hollywood. He was well regarded as an exceptional and dependable professional photographer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Unbelievably, when the news of Linda’s disappearance came out, Rathbun immediately called police and informed them that he had seen Linda that Thursday morning at a Denny’s restaurant in Torrance, where they had discussed her modelling portfolio and how she might make improvements in it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nWho Was Linda Sobek?
