- Details of Disappearance:
- Mary vanished from Sacramento in September 1968. Her family was worried because she was a loving mother who wouldn’t leave her three children. Her husband, Silas, acted suspiciously; he didn’t report her missing and a prized rifle of his was gone. Years later, in 2016, Silas was accused of killing two people at sea in 1978. During the investigation, one of Silas’s sons revealed he’d seen his father commit that crime. Silas also boasted about killing Mary and burying her body near a creek in Northern California. He confessed to other killings as well. Although he died before facing trial for any of these crimes, everything points to Silas being responsible for Mary’s disappearance and death.
