Details of Disappearance

Cindy Jones was last seen on June 29,1984 by a neighbor as she was involved in a violent domestic abuse incident with her husband Norman Jones. Cindy was bruised and bloody and screaming for help from inside her home. The neighbor contacted police who went to the residence and were told by her husband Norman Jones that Cindy had left the home out the back door. Police did not check the residence for Cindy. Norman Jones later confessed to a girlfriend that he had beaten and strangled Cindy and buried her body in a gravel pit at a jobsite in Park Falls or Medford. Norman was charged with Cindy's murder in February of 1985. That charge was dismissed in May of 1985 as Investigators were not able to locate Cindy's remains. Norman fled the state after his release, murdered a female acquaintance in Florida in 1990, and then killed himself as Police closed in on him to make the arrest. Cindy's remains have never been located.
