Denise Lynn Oliverson, 24, disappeared on Sunday afternoon, April 6, 1975, after leaving her Grand Junction, Colorado home following an argument with her husband. She told him she was going for a ride on her yellow ten-speed bicycle to her parents’ house but never arrived. Her bicycle and sandals were found the next day under a viaduct near a railroad bridge along the route she would have taken.

Decades later, serial killer Ted Bundy confessed to abducting Denise during that bike ride, killing her, and disposing of her body in the Colorado River about five miles west of Grand Junction; gas receipts place Bundy in the area that day. After reviewing confession tapes and investigator interviews, the Grand Junction Police Department reclassified Denise’s case as a homicide in 2019. Her remains have never been recovered.

Friends remembered Denise as a kind person. Does anyone who lived in Grand Junction in April 1975 or who knew Denise have information that could help close this case?
