- Details of Disappearance:
- Dena disappeared from Pueblo, Colorado on August 15, 2004. She left a note saying goodbye. Her husband, Ralph, reported her missing a few weeks later, saying he thought she’d left him, maybe for someone she met online. They had two sons.
After Dena vanished, Ralph got a divorce and remarried in 2009. His new wife, Pamela, was murdered in 2015, and Ralph claimed intruders were responsible. However, he was arrested and convicted of her murder in 2016 and sent to prison for life.
Police are now re-investigating Dena’s disappearance because of Ralph’s conviction, but they haven’t said if they think she was murdered or if Ralph is a suspect in her case. It remains a mystery.
