Gregoria Catoe was last seen on September 14, 1986. Her husband alleges that she left during the night while he slept. He told authorities that she packed all her clothes into small suitcases and boxes and left their home. Gregoria left behind the nightgown she had worn to bed that evening, her wedding rings, and their 9-month-old baby. The husband claimed he didn't report her missing because she had left him before and he no longer cared where she was. Authorities knew nothing about her disappearance until the husband of a friend of Gregoria's called the Dodge County Sheriff's Department in March of 1987. Those who knew the couple said the husband kept her a virtual prisoner in their rural home.
In 1994, investigators dug holes in several places on Catoe's property looking for Gregoria's remains. The case was reopened in 1994 when allegations of incest, child molestation, and statutory rape charges were filed against the husband. He died in 1997.
