Circumstances of Disappearance

On October 21, 1973, Virginia Erickson disappeared.

Ginny, who attended church on a regular basis also played piano for the church.

Ginny was not reported as a missing person until several months later during a subsequent investigation. That investigation led to the arrest of the husband for crimes against the children.

Ginny disappeared under suspicious conditions.
