Rachael Leigh Anderson, 40, of Clarkston, Washington, was last seen April 16, 2010, in Moscow, Idaho, and did not show up for work the following Monday. Her two daughters reported her missing. The white 1997 GMC Yukon she had been borrowing was found April 21 at a Lewiston Dynamart near the Greyhound bus station; her purse and cell phone were inside.
In the months before she vanished Anderson reported repeated harassment and stalking, including a broken rear windshield, slashed tires, being watched, and disturbing calls and texts. She told police she feared for her life and suspected her estranged husband, Charles A. Capone. Court records show Anderson had filed for divorce in January 2010 and prosecutors say Capone had a history of violence toward women.
Investigators later charged Capone and an associate, David Stone, in Anderson’s murder. Prosecutors said forensic evidence tied human remains scent and blood in Anderson’s Yukon to the two men, Stone cooperated with authorities and pleaded guilty to failing to notify police about a death, and Capone was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life. Anderson’s body has not been found.
Anyone who knew Rachael, saw her in mid-April 2010, or has information about her disappearance is asked to come forward?
