Beth Elaine Dodge was 33 and a divorced mother from the Victor, New York area when she was abducted at Eastview Mall on April 12, 1984. According to reports, Christopher Bernard Wilder forced her into her own Pontiac Firebird, drove her to a secluded rural road and shot her in the back. Her body was later found in a gravel pit.

Wilder, identified as the man responsible for a cross-country crime spree, apparently targeted Dodge both to take her car and as part of his pattern of violence against young women. Law enforcement intensified their manhunt after her killing; Wilder was confronted in Colebrook, New Hampshire on April 13, 1984 and was killed during the struggle with police, so he never stood trial for Dodge’s murder.

Does anyone have memories of Beth, her daughter, or the Victor area in 1984 that could add to the record?
