Details of Disappearance
Cox was last seen in Seminole, Oklahoma at 8:44 p.m. on May 15, 2022. She was driving a green 2000 Honda Civic Del Sol with the Oklahoma license plate number LEQ736 at the time. She has never been heard from again. On May 20, her vehicle was found abandoned at Love's Travel Stop at the Seminole Exit off of Interstate 40, and was towed.
After her disappearance Cox is believed to have traveled with a man who was a long-haul truck driver. He told her family he left her at a rest stop, but his story as to where this rest stop was changed: at one point he said it was in Arizona, and another time he said it was in California. There was a possible sighting of Cox on foot in Joseph City, Arizona on June 3, but this is unconfirmed.
The circumstances of her disappearance are unclear.
