| Show 2B Monday Ogden Bundy From 1B handcuff key was found outside the door and sent to an FBI laboratory where investigators hoped to find something to connect the key with handcuffs found in Bundy's car a year later "But there was nothing It could have been used or it couldn't" Beat said Beal said the girl still is listed as missing We don't know that she was murdered AH we have is a missing person We have no proof we just assume she was murdered" Kent is one of at least three girls reported missing in the area between fall 1974 and the next summer the period in which Bundy moved to Utah and enrolled at the University of Utah Nancy Wilcox was missing from the Olympic Cove area in Salt Lake County in October 1974 and Nancy Baird was missing from a US 89 gas station in Layton in July 1985 Two other Utah girls bodies were found during that time The A Advocate 'FromlB Take for example a recent one involving a woman who contacted the Ogden for help She has an incurable fa- tal disease the woman told the paper and as a result had to put her child into a foster home She had been denied Social Security and welfare benefits and if she didn't get medication for her dis-- ease she would die quickly She said nobody would help her The case looked hopeless The woman was referred to Johnston and when last heard from she had qualified for general assistance and food stamps The woman could not qualify for Medicaid immediately Johnston said but if she can get a letter from her doctor saying her condition is the state will help her with that too Johnston gets between 150 and 200 calls for help each month Only six or seven of those come from the Ogden office which she said is a credit to Don Knight director of assistance payments at the Ogden Office All directors are supposed to refer problems to her she said but not all of them do "because they're afraid that it will reflect back on them and it will We use those statistics as a management tool" "Don (Knight) doesn't mind referring to us because he knows he has a real good record with us" she said 18 1936 August body of Melissa Smith Midvale was found in Summit Park in and Laura Parley's Canyon Amie's body was found in American Fork Bundy is suspected in all of the five cases Beal said The case against Bundy in Utah began to solidify in 1975 when a highway patrolman in West Valley checked a suspicious vehicle When the trooper pulled up behind Bundy the man drove off without lights and ran several stop signs After the chase and arrest burglary tools a crow bar a nylon mask and handcuffs were found in Bundy's car police said Bundy eventually was convicted in Utah of kidnapping Carol DaRonch Murray on Nov 8 — the same night Kent disappeared Bundy talked DaRonch into going with him to the police station in Murray by posing as an officer Beal said Bundy stopped the car in the Fashion Place Mall vicinity and tried to handcuff the girl officers said She testified in court that Bundy tried to hit her with a crow bar and threatened to shoot her Beal said families where both parents are present because the state's programs are geared toward households "One thing that is particularly frustrating to me is people who don't get their food stamps when they're sent out" she said Food stamps are mailed but it seems some always get "lost" somewhere even those sent by certified mail Stamps sent by certified mail can take two weeks to replace she said just because it takes that long to search for the lost parcel "and it's frustrating to tell someone who says I have no food' that it will be two weeks" In cases like that she refers the claimant to a food bank and starts looking for the stamps in the bureaucracy "The hard thing is when a family has a baby" she said "Almost The girl escaped with the handcuffs on her wrists about 7:15 pm and about 45 minutes later was spotted at Viewmont High Meanwhile Beal said his investigation to find Kent or her body continues Tve been watching the teletype for years" he said When a description of a body or skeleton comes over the law enforcement information teletype with any indications it might be regarding Kent Beal contacts the agency involved or the medical examiner in that area and sends Kent's dental records "I get a letter back saying 'Sorry that's not the right one'" And Beal said he reads reports and newspapers to find anything at all that may turn up involving the Kent case Beal said the nearest hope he had was when the body of Laurie Amie was brought to the state Medical Examiner's office in late November 1974 "As soon as I saw her I knew it wasn't her She was too tall" He said the Bountiful Police Department has not been contacted about the recent discovery of a He said if a body is ever found the jaw bone likely will be the only way of identifying the girl "If she's been dead as long as we think she's been dead if and when we find anything I don't even think the bones will be intact" he said "Because Bundy's pattern is to dump the bodies on top of the ground predators would scatter the bones everywhere" none of the food banks have baby food" In seven years Johnston has seen some grim trends develop Services are getting scarcer staff numbers are shrinking and political and managerial demands for accuracy and fraud control are getting stronger All this adds up to slower services for the clients That means she said that when someone comes to her on the verge of getting evicted and applies for assistance she has to tell them "Hold on" it will be another 30 days "I don't know anyone who won't agree there's a correlation between poverty and crime" she said That same correlation applies for child abuse she said "The bottom line is we can't afford it and I don't know how we can afford not to do it (fund welfare)" The system isn't kind to the welfare worker either In a country where welfare recipients are looked down on some of the disdain falls on the case worker too "They get a lot of crap from the community for helping those 'lazy bums'" she said and at the same time they get flak from clients who say the case workers don't do enough Considering that they're usually the lowest-paiemployees in the welfare system the line workers — who talk to the people — do a good job Johnston said Most problems caused by case workers stem from their relative ignorance of all the options available in the system she said It's not their fault she said That's just the way it is And that said Johnston is where she comes in tree marked "Ted Bundy '78" Beal heard that Salt Lake County detectives will be going to southern Utah sometime within a week to look at that tree "I really doubt if we are going" Beal said but added that if any evidence is found there connecting the tree carving with the missing Bountiful girl he will investigate A hunk of tree trunk recently found near Huntington Canyon was sent to forestry experts who found the etching was carved between fall
