- Details of Disappearance:
- Cappo disappeared on June 10, 1980, after leaving Kansas City in his dark blue, damaged Plymouth car. He was heading to Las Vegas, where he gambled often and owed a lot of money – at least $75,000. He had a regular routine of contacting his wife daily via pager, but he vanished without a trace.
Cappo was involved with criminals in Kansas City and feared for his life. He told his wife he was meeting dangerous people in Las Vegas and warned his lawyer that his friends were untrustworthy. His wife couldn’t collect on his life insurance because the policy only covered accidental death, and it was clear he’d bought it expecting to be murdered.
Though no one was ever arrested, police believe Cappo was killed.
