Oberbroeckling — a recent washington high school graduate who taught a class for developmentally disabled children at younkers and shared the 10th street residence with her friend, debbie kellogg — had gone out on a date friday night with boyfriend lonnie bell. The two returned together to the 10th st. Residence, where they argued.She never returned.Mrs. Oberbroeckling told officer smith that paula had been somewhat upset because she thought she was about 1-1/2 months pregnant and felt bell was trying to ditch her.Police followed up on hundreds of leads, and four months after oberbroeckling’s disappearance, finally got a break in the case; it was not the break they’d hoped to receive.Agency
