Details of Disappearance
Wilcox was last seen riding in a yellow Volkswagen Bug in Holladay, Utah on October 2, 1974. She has never been heard from again. She was a high school student and a cheerleader when she vanished.
Wilcox is believed to have been a victim of the serial killer Ted Bundy. A photograph of Bundy is posted below this case summary. He was executed in Florida in 1989 and confessed to many murders before his death, including Wilcox's. She fits the profile of his other victims and he was known to have been in the area at the time of her disappearance. Also, he drove a Volkswagen Bug like the car she was seen riding in. Bundy stated he buried her body near Capitol Reef National Park.
Bundy is thought to be responsible for Wilcox's murder and for the murders of Donna Manson, Denise Oliverson, Georgeann Hawkins, Ann Marie Burr, Debra Kent and other young women. The women continue to be listed as missing persons. Their remains have never been recovered.
