Shownotes Transcript

On July 24th, 1997, 24-year-old Olympic hopeful Amy Wroe Bechtel left her home to run some errands and to work on mapping out a new 10k run she was planning in Lander, Wyoming. When she failed to return home that night, her husband reported her missing. The search effort for Amy was massive, and her case blew up in the media, leading to thousands of calls and tips, but after many conflicting witness statements, mishandling of a potential crime scene, and a lot of finger-pointing by law enforcement, she remains missing.

 

Amy is 5’6” tall, white, with blonde hair and blue eyes. At the time of her disappearance, she weighed approximately 115 lbs. She was last seen wearing black running shorts, a yellow shirt, and running shoes. Anyone with information is asked to call the Fremont County Sheriff’s Office at 307-332-5611.
