On Monday afternoon, there was no evidence that police suspect a crime had taken place at the small, well-kept home surrounded by farmland; no crime scene tape surrounded the home, and investigators were not seen at the residence.
“We are treating this as a missing persons case,” Lincoln County Sheriff’s Lt. Mark Gartmann said Monday. “We are very actively looking for (Anita Bucki) at this time.”

Two other Lincoln County missing persons cases remain unsolved. Robert Cartwright, 56, was reported missing April 15, 2012, from his town of Bradley home. Cartwright, who left his vehicle and wallet behind when he disappeared, has never been found.
Another man has been missing for nearly 17 years. Ben Wilberding, 21, was last seen May 24, 1996, at a home on the property where he lived with his parents.
Wilberding was working at Hurd Windows and Doors in Merrill at the time and never picked up his last paycheck. Bones found in 2011 on the town of Wilson property where Wilberding was visiting his parents at the time of his disappearance were tested, but the results were inconclusive. The bones found did not contain enough DNA evidence to determine whether they were animal or human, investigators said.

Yes the times confuse me? It says talking until late Friday morning? Then wakes at 5am? So talking late into the morning would be like 2-3am? So he then wakes only 2 hours later? This case is already seeming very familiar to the Jennifer Ramsaran case
