Nicole Waller, 31, was last seen on February 14, 2013, after visiting an on-again, off-again boyfriend, Cody Johnston, in Fairview, Montana. She had driven from her home in Kalispell and told family and friends she was returning home, but never arrived. That same day her maroon Ford Expedition was found locked and abandoned along Highway 2 near Poplar, Montana, with her belongings and her pet guinea pigs still inside; her keys were left in the ignition.

Investigators quickly treated the disappearance as suspicious and focused on Johnston. Their relationship had been troubled, and Waller had recently confronted him about infidelity. Phone records showed Johnston lied about his whereabouts the day she vanished, and he allegedly asked friends to move her vehicle and to send fake messages from her Facebook account to make it appear she was alive.

Johnston was arrested in 2015 and convicted of her murder in 2016; he received life plus ten years for evidence tampering. Waller’s body has not been recovered and authorities continue to seek her remains. Did anyone in Kalispell or Fairview know Nicole’s movements that day or have information about where her remains might be?
