Holly Cantrell was a mother of three who left the Oklahoma hospital where she worked one day and simply Disappeared, Investigation Discovery examines the case.
January 20, 2017, in McAlester, Oklahoma, and physical therapist Holly Marie Cantrell went off for her lunch break and was never seen alive again.
Cantrell, 40, was spotted on CCTV getting into a green truck, but the driver later told police he dropped her off at Braum’s and then forgot to go and pick her up. The last sighting of the mother of three was by a member of the public at Braum’s about 12:20 P.M.
Her stepdaughter told police that it would be very unlike her to just disappear without telling anyone and a search was soon started. Cantrell’s purse was found in some woods but little else in the way of any leads were forthcoming.
Then in February 2018, some bones were found around a mile from where the purse had been discovered, they included part of a skull and were spread over a wide area.
