Martha continued to say she remembers a woman had twice tried to call Beth over to her car. Martha told Dateline she and some of her family members did recall seeing a woman selling purses around the neighborhood before Beth’s disappearance. They had been in Cape Girardeau for a while, selling purses by knocking on people’s front doors.

Martha told Dateline police investigated the lead and discovered the couple had been using fake names and changing their license plates. Martha said the dealer reported to police that the couple had checked out the day before, around the time Beth went missing. According the Martha, the couple had told the auto dealer that was OK with them, as they would be staying in town for another week.īut when the car part arrived on Monday and the dealer called the motel to tell the couple, he learned they couple had checked out early and were gone. The dealer had told them the part wouldn’t come in until Monday the 14th. The couple had been waiting for a part for their car to come in, according to the dealer. A man called and said there had been a couple staying in the motel behind the Gill residence. “But we were blessed to have a large family in that we counseled each other.”Īccording to Martha, the next morning, the police received a tip from a local auto dealer. Since she was the oldest sibling there, Martha said she took care of the younger kids and kept them out of the way so the police could work. “So I thought, ‘Thirty minutes? We’re going to find her. When Martha and her mother arrived, it had only been thirty minutes since the children had realized Beth was missing. When they said Bethie was missing, my mom passed out.” “We pulled into our driveway and saw a crowd around our house. “We were driving into town and we saw all the police officers and thought, ‘Wow, something is going on,’” Martha told Dateline. According to Martha, one of the children called the police.
