An aunt of Wilson-Talley’s reported her missing to police after she was told by neighbors at the Magnolia Avenue apartment complex where she had lived that she had not been seen for several weeks. Police searched her apartment, but she was not there. Reports did not note any signs of foul play.
Wilson-Talley also has throat cancer and she had missed several recent appointments for treatment when she was reported missing.
Her car was found Jan. 24, 2017, in the back yard of a home in the 1700 block of South Heights Avenue and towed for evidence.
However, at some point in the case, someone had tried to sell her car to Donnell Ford but was not able to do so.
Their mother, Caroline Wilson, was murdered in 1991. Wilson said that Wilson-Talley is his older sister and she took on the role of mom for him after their mother was murdered.
Shortly after her sister was reported missing, Hardy said she got a letter in the mail from the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission showing a man driving her sister’s car and her sister in the passenger’s seat with a hood over her face. Hardy received the letter because the car went through a toll gate without paying.
