Heath Riley Reams, 26, disappeared from Jennings, Oklahoma, on July 27, 2003. At the time he was separated and staying with friends Amanda Sanders-Bolstad and Todd Ross; he was last seen leaving their home around 7:00 a.m. in his pickup truck and did not take personal items, money, or credit cards. His mother reported him missing on August 2 after several days without contact.

On November 3, 2003, hunters found Reams’s 1997 Toyota 4Runner locked and abandoned in a pasture three miles east of Jennings. Investigators located his briefcase and CDs inside but reported no immediate signs of foul play at the scene. Family concern intensified when he failed to contact his five-year-old son or respond after his ill grandfather died.

Years later a grand jury indicted Amanda Sanders-Bolstad in September 2012; prosecutors alleged Reams had been beaten with a baseball bat. In August 2015 Sanders-Bolstad pleaded guilty to first-degree manslaughter and received a 25-year sentence with all but five years suspended. Reams’s body has not been recovered.

If anyone in the Jennings area recalls Heath, his truck, or unusual activity around late July 2003, please share what you know.
