Joan Conetta, 74, disappeared from her home in the Whiting section of Manchester Township, New Jersey on June 10, 2012. She was last seen on foot wearing a grey sweatsuit and sometimes wore reading glasses. Family members had recently taken her car keys after a separate incident in another county where she had been found wandering and disoriented; she had also been diagnosed with early-stage Alzheimer’s disease. Despite that diagnosis, she had no history of leaving for long periods without telling anyone.

When she left her St. John Place residence in the Crestwood Village community, it is believed she may have taken a .22 caliber Beretta and possibly up to $7,000 in cash. Searchers used ATVs, K-9 units and cadaver dogs to check nearby woods; detectives checked Atlantic City and local transport options. A possible sighting on Route 530 five days later was never confirmed and her bank accounts have shown no activity since June 10. Joan is described as white, 5 feet 1 inch to 5 feet 3 inches tall, 100 to 120 pounds, with gray hair and hazel eyes.

Does anyone who lived in Whiting or traveled Route 530 in June 2012 recall seeing Joan or have information that could help resolve what happened?
