To add to the timeline for Marlene: On April 7, 1986, she crossed the center line and collided with a motorcyclist (who lost his leg), then veered across the road and went up a utility guy wire, ending up at a 45 degree angle. On May 7, 1986, she was cited for DUI. The citation was filed in court on June 10, but the process server was unable to serve her. On June 25, the summons was returned unserved, and a warrant was issued for her arrest. I don't see that it was ever served, nor any other future filings.
Kporter, thank you for an extra information. That must have been quite a traumatic event for both parties involved. This being 2nd quite serious car crash Marlene has been involved in/well, with serious consenquences, I wonder if it perhaps brought back memories from her teen years of other girl dying in car crash, this all affecting her emotionally in some way.
This new information however also opens new possibility that she might have been missing even prior to June 24th (but after May 7 when she was informed about DUI - if that was done in person).
So there are 3 options so far to her disappearance:
- due to her vulnerable emotional state
- her running away from DUI summons
- foul play (fact that she was just a year newly wed should not be ignored either, unfortunately we have seen many newly married wifes just vanish)
I am still curious to find out if Marlene had any children, how long was her first marriage, what kind of job did she do, what job did her 2nd husband do etc.
Kporter if you have and can share any, even little extra information on her case it would be highly appreciated. If there is any other photo of her, we would love to see it too.
Off topic, but I see logo above your name. Are you part of Utah Cold Case Coalition? I highly admire all their hard work, plus of course their first ever Non for profit forensic lab.
