Alicia Minton, 36, was last seen around 1:00 PM on June 1, 2007, in Rogers, Arkansas. She left her children with a friend and planned to go to Beaver Lake, dressed for the water in a red bikini, red tank top, shorts, and pink flip-flops. Her silver BMW was later found abandoned near Second and Locust Streets in northeastern Rogers with her personal belongings left behind, prompting concern that she had not left voluntarily.

Searches focused on Beaver Lake after her purse turned up floating in the water about two weeks later. Divers, sonar and cadaver dogs were used during an extensive search coordinated by the Rogers Police Department and the Benton County Sheriff’s Office. Investigators early on identified her ex-boyfriend, who had a history of domestic abuse against her, as a person of interest and believed she was to meet him the day she vanished.

In April 2010 he was charged with her murder while already incarcerated on drug charges; in June 2011 he pleaded guilty to first-degree murder and received a forty-year sentence, admitting he had killed Alicia at Beaver Lake and weighed her body down in the water. Despite the conviction and repeated searches, Alicia’s remains have not been recovered. Does anyone have information about Alicia’s movements that day or about activity on Beaver Lake in June 2007?
