Betty Jane DeHart, an 81-year-old woman from Jonestown, Texas, was shot and killed on August 26, 2007, during a carjacking in Pennsylvania. Her car and $8 from her purse were taken. The killing was later linked to Paul Devoe, whose crime spree began in Texas and included multiple other murders before he fled to Pennsylvania.

Investigators determined Devoe was under the influence of methamphetamine and alcohol during the spree; he confessed and provided details to authorities. Devoe was arrested in New York after a brief standoff and was convicted of multiple murders and sentenced to death. Betty Jane DeHart’s death was one of several victims in that series of crimes; her family and community were left to grieve an elderly neighbor taken in a violent, random encounter.

Does anyone have information about DeHart’s last known movements or who may have seen her vehicle that day?
