That same evening, Zywicki’s mother contacted the Illinois State Police and told them her daughter had not arrived at college. 24, 1992, Illinois State Police towed the vehicle.

Later that day, an Illinois State Trooper found Zywicki’s car - a 1985 Pontiac T1000 with New Jersey license plates - and ticketed it as an abandoned vehicle. Zywicki, a 21-year-old Grinnell College student, departed Evanston, Illinois, to return to school in Grinnell, Iowa, where she planned to arrive that evening. This map shows where Tammy left Evanston near Chicago, and where her body was found near Springfield one week later. The FBI is offering a reward of up to $50,000 for information leading to the identification of the individual or individuals responsible for this crime. We agree, and urge anyone with any knowledge about her unsolved murder to contact Special Agent Jorge Fonseca, Illinois State Police, at (815) 726-6377 Ext 286, or your nearest FBI office.

Though Tammy’s case is officially under Illinois State Police jurisdiction and the FBI’s Chicago Division, she has a page here due to her status as a Grinnell College (Iowa) student at the time of her death and because many wrote to say they felt she should be included here. IOWA COLD CASES founder Jody Ewing compiled the following case summary using excerpts from sources listed at the bottom of this page. Her body was found in Missouri days later, with evidence of stabbing and sexual assault. She was returning from Evanston, Illinois to Grinnell College in Iowa.

The statement appeared to rule out what had seemed to be a promising lead in the case of Zywicki, who was abducted after experiencing car troubles on Interstate 80 near La Salle, Illinois in 1992. The Illinois State Police said Friday that Clark Perry Baldwin is not a suspect in the death of 21-year-old Tammy Zywicki.
