From The Charley Project:
"Sheila was last seen in her bedroom at her family's ninth-floor apartment in the Ickes Homes in Chicago, Illinois on February 27, 1980. She has never been heard from again. Foul play is suspected in Sheila's case, but few details are available with regards to her disappearance."

Thoughts? Just like the Charley Project said, there's unfortunately not much additional detail. According to Missing Children Wikia, the burn marks are from walking into a hot stove. (Supposedly). According to the Chicago tribune, Sheila simply "wandered off." (Once again, supposedly). I should note I'm not accusing anyone of not telling the truth in that case, there's nothing about the parents to judge, but the problem is when there's so little information to go on, we can't know for certain what's true or not true.
