Maud Robinson Crawford (June 22, 1891 – March 2, 1957) was an American attorney in Camden, Arkansas, who disappeared without trace. As partner in a law firm investigating Mafia influence over labor unions, she was believed kidnapped by the mob. But a local newspaper report in 1986 alleged that one of her clients had been defrauded by a corrupt businessman and police commissioner Henry ‘Mike’ Berg, whom Crawford had confronted. It noted that the detective who discovered this connection was removed from the case, and the relevant files disappeared. The case remains officially unsolved. ==Background==
Crawford was born in Greenville, east of Dallas, Texas, the oldest of four children of John W. "Jack" Robinson and the former Ida Louise Faucett. Because her mother died when Crawford was only nine years of age, she was reared in Warren, the seat of Bradley County in southern Arkansas, by her maternal grandmother, Mary Louise Faucett Ritchey, who operated a boarding house with a second husband, Thomas Ritchey. Maud Crawford was the valedictorian of her 1911 Warren High School graduating class. She then attended the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville for the 1911–1912 academic year.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Maud Robinson Crawford (1891-1957) )〕 In 1916, she began work as a stenographer at the Gaughan law firm in Camden, the seat of Ouachita County in south Arkansas. In 1925, she married Clyde Falwell Crawford (1894–1969),〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Social Security Death Index )〕 a scion of a pioneer Camden family. The couple had no children. In 1927, Crawford took the bar exam at the University of Arkansas School of Law, having learned the principles of the law while she was employed in the Gaughan firm. She passed the exam and ranked first in her class. Crawford's expertise was estate management and title work, important to an area of considerable petroleum drilling. Her admission to the bar occurred only ten years after women were first permitted to practice law in the state of Arkansas.〔
