Tammy Lynn Leppert

Tammy Lynn Leppert was an American beauty queen and model. She had a few acting roles in the early 1980s but mysteriously disappeared at the age of 18. Her disappearance has generated much publicity, and her case remains open.

Leppert had aspirations for an acting career, though she lacked formal training in acting. In 1980, she had a bit part in the teen-oriented comedy-drama film "Little Darlings". The film's plot revolved around two teenage girls who placed a bet on which of them would lose her virginity first, while several other girls took an interest in their contest. In 1983, Leppert appeared as a female participant in a boxing match featured in the sex comedy "Spring Break". After the end of the film's shooting, Leppert decided to party. She went unaccompanied to a weekend party but reportedly had a disturbing experience there. After she returned home, Leppert started displaying signs of paranoia and persecutory beliefs. She was convinced that somebody would try to kill her and started taking precautions to prevent anyone from placing poison in her food and drink. Leppert's last acting role was in a key scene of the crime drama film "Scarface". Her role was that of a bikini-clad girl who intentionally distracts the lookout car, preventing its occupants from intervening in a torture scene. Leppert reportedly displayed irrational behavior on the film's set and was escorted to her home after the fourth day of filming.
