Amy Wroe Bechtel was a woman who disappeared under mysterious circumstances in 1997. She was born on August 4, 1973, in Lander, Wyoming, USA. At the time of her disappearance, Amy was a 24-year-old fitness instructor and a former Miss Wyoming USA.On July 24, 1997, Amy went for a run in the Shoshone National Forest near Lander. She was training for a marathon and left her home that morning wearing running clothes.

When Amy failed to return home, her husband, Steve Bechtel, became concerned and reported her missing.A search operation involving local authorities, volunteers, and law enforcement agencies was immediately launched. Despite extensive efforts and a widespread search, no sign of Amy was found initially.

However, a break in the case came a month later when a pair of running shoes, later confirmed to be Amy's, were discovered on a remote road in the area.Suspicion soon fell on a local man named Dale Wayne Eaton, who was already serving a life sentence for an unrelated murder. Investigators found similarities between Amy's case and Eaton's modus operandi, including his affinity for abducting and killing young women.In 2002, Dale Wayne Eaton was charged with Amy Wroe Bechtel's murder based on circumstantial evidence and his history of violent crimes.


Though without a body or direct evidence linking him to Amy's disappearance, Eaton was only convicted for the unrelated murder and not for her case specifically.Despite ongoing efforts to locate Amy and bring her killer to justice, her remains have not been found, and the exact details of her disappearance remain unknown. Her case has received significant media attention, and her family continues to search for answers, advocate for missing persons, and support other families going through similar experiences.
