Episode 153: The Stranger in the White Truck | The Disappearance of Lenny Dirickson

0:00 47:58

On March 14, 1998, 39-year-old Lenny Dirickson was at his farm in the Cheyenne/Strong City, Oklahoma area, when an unidentified man arrived in a truck. The man said he wanted to look at one of Lenny’s stud horses, so Lenny left with him, telling his son that he would be back later that day.

But Lenny never came home.

More than 28 years later, his family is still searching for answers, and the question remains: What happened to Lenny Dirickson?

If you have any information about Lenny’s case, please contact the OSBI via email at cold.case@osbi.ok.gov.
