Circumstances of Disappearance
Susan is originally from Bountiful, Utah. She was attending the Bountiful Orchard Youth Conference and Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah when she disappeared. Susan was an athletic teenager and had ridden her bicycle 50 miles from Bountiful to Provo to attend the conference. She was last seen on June 27, 1975, the first day of the conference. That evening after a formal banquet, Susan left her friends to walk back to her dormitory, about a quarter mile away, to brush her teeth. She has never been heard from again.

Serial killer Ted Bundy confessed to Susan's murder before his execution. Her body has never been found.

Missing Person Case

She was Bundy´s last confession, so he didn´t show the details of where her body could be. I wonder if by looking towhere he disposed other bodies there can be some kind of lead to where Susan´s body can be.

 

[Mysteries1974]

Yeah, Susan’s case got the least amount of attention unlike Bundys other victims.

 

[Mysteries1974]

I feel that she was dumped somewhere near where Debra Kent was found

I feel that Susan was dumped somewhere near Debra Kent who’s remains were allegedly found in 1989

I wonder if Law Enforcement are considering the case open. Maybe if there is someone from her family looking for her body after all these years...

Susan’s case is not actively investigated. Debra Kent was removed from all missing persons databases.

Darling Susan - what dark fate visited you that HELL.

 

[Mysteries1974]

I feel horrible for Susan’s family.

According to Chris Mortensen (Youtube chanel Captain Borax) a police investigator told him that Susan had been sexually abused by a PE teacher for a few years. The investigator actually went to that PE teachers house, years after susan's disappearance and when he was much much older, just to scare him.

I thought this was interesting information to add as there's not much known about Susan. I feel so terrible for her as with all the other young girls that haven't been found.

To add to the comment above.

The teacher was exposed because he took Susan curtis to a clinic to find out whether she was pregnant or not. They told the clinic Susan's friends name instead of hers, so the clinic called her friend. After that the police kept an eye on him.

Susan and Nancy Baird are still considered missing: 13 people still missing in Weber, Davis and Box Elder counties
