If she's alive, Cynthia Britto turns 11 today.
She has been missing since she disappeared with her mother and her aunt May
29, 1992, in Chandler.Britto, her mother, Wendy Camp, who was 23 at the time of
the disappearance, and the girl's aunt, Lisa Renee Kregear, who was 22, have not
been seen in almost 5 years.
The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation has released a computerized image
of how Britto might look now in hopes the public might be able to help in the
case.
State agents said they suspect foul play in the disappearance, but they have
had few leads since 1992.
"Wendy Camp suffered from multiple sclerosis. She needed medication and
assistance getting around, so investigators don't believe she would have taken
Cynthia anywhere without telling family members," OSBI spokeswoman Kym Koch
said.
Britto, Camp and Kregear were all from northwest Oklahoma City. They were
last seen getting out of a 1983 dark blue Audi at the Wal-Mart in Chandler.
The three were returning from Shamrock, where Camp had been visiting her
4-year-old son.
Anyone with information about the case can call the National Center for
Missing and Exploited Children at (800) 843-5678 or the OSBI at (405) 848-6724.

CHANDLER - The reported disappearance of two Oklahoma City women and a child
from the Wal-Mart parking lot in Chandler will be featured on the television
program "Unsolved Mysteries," at 7 p.m. Wednesday.
"We're hoping someone will see this who has information on the case,"
Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation spokesman Kym Koch said Tuesday.Wendy
Laraine Camp, 23, her daughter, Cynthia M. Britto,
7, and Lisa Renee Kregear, 25, were last seen on May 29,
1992, after reportedly being dropped off at the Chandler
Wal-Mart following an argument with their driver, police said.
"We have a concern they are dead. Wendy Camp has MS (multiple sclerosis) and
did not have enough medication to last," Koch said.
The OSBI has sent agent Jackie Johnson to the "Unsolved Mysteries" studio in
Burbank, Calif., to take calls in
the event any come in Wednesday night following the program, to be broadcast on
Channel 2 in Tulsa and Channel 4 in Oklahoma City, Koch said.
"We will also have additional staff in our office in case we get any calls,"
Koch said. OSBI headquarters can be
reached at 1-800-522-8017.
The three had traveled from Oklahoma City to Creek County with Wendy Camp's
ex-mother-in-law, Beverly Noe of Bristow, Chandler Police Chief Mel Roberts
said.
"Beverly Noe was the last person we know that saw them," Roberts said. He
said Noe told police "they got into an
argument somewhere between the Shamrock-Bristow area and
Chandler and she dropped them off at the Chandler Wal-Mart and drove off."

Title: Acting's for `Wimps,' Believed Tulsa Actor Until College Course
Author: Natalie Nichols

Page: E3
"For me, it's just a hobby I love," said Tulsa resident
Doug Bauer about his acting career. "When I was in college (at the University of
Oklahoma), I took an acting course
and liked it a lot. I was naive and thought I could be a movie star.
"But it wasn't something I'd wanted to do all my life. In high school I
thought the drama people were wimps. I
was a football player."Despite the fact that he was a late bloomer in the
dramatic world, Bauer seems to have a knack for it. Thanks in part to his rugged
good looks, he has been seen in two feature films, three television shows and
about 20 national and
international commercials in the last five years.
His latest credit is an upcoming appearance on Wednesday's episode of
"Unsolved Mysteries" (which airs at 7 p.m.
on KJRH, Channel 2), where Bauer plays a man whose ex-wife and her daughter have
come up missing.
"This is a story about an Oklahoma case," Bauer said.
"The show was put together in Oklahoma City and my agent
told me about the audition, and I got it. I play a character named Chad. At
first, I was in several scenes, but I understand that a couple of them got cut."
The man Bauer is playing on the screen is Chad Noe, whose ex-wife Wendy Camp
and Camp's 7-year-old daughter, Cynthia Britto, along with Camp's sister-in-law,
Lisa Kregear, disappeared on May 29, 1992, after they were allegedly left at a
Wal-Mart store in Chandler by Noe's mother.
Noe has custody of his and Camp's son, and Noe's mother, Beverly Noe, had
offered Camp a ride from Oklahoma City
to Shamrock to visit the little boy, as Camp had no other means of
transportation.
Camp was last heard from when she called her husband from a payphone at a
Shamrock cafe to say that the visit had
gone well and they were on their way home.
They never made it.
Beverly Noe said she and Camp argued in the car, and she asked the women and
little girl to get out at the Wal-Mart store. No witnesses have come forward to
place the trio
at the Wal-Mart, and officials have no other leads.

Title: Waiting Game Is 8 Months Old - Missing Women, Child Now Presumed Dead
Author: David Fallis
Date: February 7, 1993
Section: NEWS
Page: A1
EDMOND - Wendy Camp and her 7-year-old daughter have
been put to rest, but not buried.
Eight months after they - along with Camp's 25-year-old sister-in-law, Lisa
Ranea Kregear - disappeared on a trip to Shamrock, family members and state
agents believe the three are dead."We know in our hearts they were murdered. We
just don't
have any evidence to prove it," said Camp's mother, Jackie Taylor.
There are no leads, no suspects and no reason for the two women to disappear
voluntarily - the 23-year-old Camp was partially paralyzed and dependent on
medication.
State investigators are reduced to waiting, but Taylor said her family could
not. In August they held a memorial
service for Camp and daughter Cynthia Britto to "obtain
closure" until they know what really happened.
It is "a matter of waiting for the phone to ring," Taylor said.
The trip to Shamrock - a tiny town nestled among rolling hills just northwest
of Bristow - was a chance for Camp
to see her 5-year-old son, Jonathon, who is in the custody of her ex-husband,
Chad Noe, Taylor said.
"She was excited. It was the first time she had seen Jonathon in six or eight
months," Taylor said.
Camp and Noe divorced several years ago, and Noe took custody of Jonathon
when Camp was hospitalized in a coma from multiple sclerosis, Taylor said.
Taylor said when her daughter regained her health, she was intent on seeing
her child.
It became a court fight and Camp eventually won the right to visit Jonathon,
Taylor said.
On May 28, Noe's mother, Beverly Noe of Bristow, called and offered to take
Camp to visit the boy, Taylor said.
"Wendy was elated" at the offer, Taylor said.
Taylor said Camp's husband was worried about his wife's safety and insisted
that his sister, Kregear, go along.
On May 29, Noe picked up the two women - and Cynthia - at Camp's Oklahoma
City home, Taylor said.
About 1:45 p.m. Camp called Taylor and said they had arrived in Shamrock.
Camp called again shortly before 5 p.m. from a pay phone in front of a
Shamrock cafe.
She said the visit had gone well, that Beverly Noe was waiting to take them
home and that "they were on their way," Taylor said.
The pay phone is the last place lawmen can verify the trio's whereabouts.
Beverly Noe ordered the two women and child to get out of her car at the
Chandler Wal-Mart about 6 p.m. after they
argued, according to Beverly Noe's mother, Ida Prewitt.
Prewitt said Camp "badmouthed" her family as soon as they left Shamrock.
Noe was not available for comment, but Prewitt said she told her daughter to
take her home to Bristow before taking Camp home.
"She did, and she went on," Prewitt said.
By 10:30 p.m. when the three failed to return, "we were frantic," Taylor
said.
Taylor said the family filed missing person's reports with Oklahoma City
police. Because they did not have phone numbers or addresses for the Noes, they
decided to go to the Bristow police the next day, Taylor said.
Prewitt said that was when her family learned from police the three had not
made it home.
"We were not close. But we hate to see anything happen to anyone no matter
who it is," Prewitt said.
Prewitt defended her daughter's decision to put the women and the child out
of the car.
She said Camp was intent on fighting, despite Beverly Noe's efforts to
arrange the visit with Jonathon as a gesture of good will.
"She (Beverly) took all she could stand and let them out," Prewitt said.
Investigators have found no one who saw the two women and the child at the
Wal-Mart, said Oklahoma State Bureau of
Investigation spokesman Kym Koch.
In an effort to drum up new leads, Koch said the case will be featured on the
national television show "Unsolved Mysteries" this summer.
Taylor hopes the show brings answers - and a finality - to what she is
already trying to accept.
"I know they are at peace. I know they are with God," Taylor said

Title: 3 lost without a trace - After four months, families in dispute
Author: DAVID FALLIS
Date: September 26, 1992
Section: NEWS
Page: 1A
OKLAHOMA CITY - Jackie Taylor says photographs on
her desk at work are constant reminders that she has given up for dead her
daughter, daughter-in-law and granddaughter.
Law enforcement agents do not dispute her worst fears.On May 22, Taylor's
daughter, Wendy Camp, 23; Camp's daughter, Cynthia Britto, 6; and Camp's
sister-in-law, Lisa Ranea
Kregear, 25; disappeared after a visit with relatives in Shamrock.
Camp, who lives with her husband in Oklahoma City, was in no condition to be
separated from her family or from medical attention, Taylor said.
Camp's right side is paralyzed from multiple sclerosis, and Taylor said her
daughter has to take steroid medication eight times a day.
Without it, "within a week, she would have been totally comatose or dead,"
Taylor said.
Cynthia was to begin first grade this fall, and Kregear has a husband and two
small children in Oklahoma City, Taylor said.
Taylor, 40, said the ordeal drove her to a mental breakdown and a six-week
hospital stay.
"I'll never get over this. I've learned to try to have some kind of routine
to get through a day," Taylor said.
Seen at pay phone
The last verified reports, according to state investigators, place the two
women and the brown-haired girl at a pay phone in Shamrock, a small Creek County
town nestled among rolling hills and oil leases 13 miles northwest of Bristow.
Taylor said the three were returning to Oklahoma City from Shamrock after a
visit to Camp's 4-year-old son, who lives with Camp's ex-husband, Chad Noe.
The couple divorced several years ago, Taylor said, and Noe was given custody
of the boy. At the time, Taylor said, her daughter was seriously ill and in the
hospital.
Taylor said the family fought for and was granted visitation rights. On May
21, she said, Noe's mother, Beverly Noe of Bristow, called and asked if Camp
wanted to see the 4-year-old the next day.
At the time, Taylor said, she thought the offer was a ploy to look good to
the court.
"They wanted just my daughter to go," Taylor said.
Taylor said Camp's husband was worried about his wife and insisted that his
sister, Kregear, go along. The two took Cynthia as well, she said.
Bristow woman drove on trip
About 11 a.m. May 22, Taylor said, Beverly Noe drove
to Oklahoma City and picked up the three.
About 1:45 p.m., Taylor said, her daughter phoned from outside the Shamrock
cafe to say they had arrived and were waiting for her ex-husband to come down
the dirt road to meet them.
Shortly before 5 p.m., Taylor said Camp called again from the cafe pay phone.
She said her ex-husband had just dropped them off and that Beverly Noe was
coming to pick them up for the trip back.
It was the last time family members say they heard from Camp.
Beverly Noe could not be reached for comment, but Ida Prewitt, her mother,
said her daughter made arrangements May 21 for Camp to see the 4-year-old,
because Camp's family "insisted on visitation rights."
She said her daughter was extremely tired, but "offered" to drive anyway, "to
help her out."
"Beverly has had to be the goat that does everything for everybody," Prewitt
said. "She always went and got them and took them back."
Argument cut trip short
Prewitt said about 5 p.m. May 22, her daughter picked
the three up at the cafe in Shamrock.
She said her daughter told her that on the trip back to Oklahoma City, Camp
"badmouthed" the Noe family.
Prewitt said her daughter told her she became fed up with Camp and put the
three out of the car at the Chandler Wal-Mart.
When Camp failed to arrive home that evening or call, Taylor said her family
grew frantic. At 10:30 p.m., she said, they called police and filed a
missing-persons report.
Taylor said the family did not have the Noes' telephone numbers, so she
waited until morning, then drove with her husband to the Bristow police station.
Prewitt said her family did not realize that Camp, Kregear and Cynthia had
not made it home until law officers contacted them early Saturday.
"We were not close. But we hate to see anything happen to anyone no matter
who it is."
Little contact
Taylor said since the disappearances, the Noes have
made no attempt to telephone her family. The only contact came during a recent
court hearing about Camp's 4-year-old son.
"To me, if I took someone's family off and they didn't return, the first
thing I'd want to do is get with the family," Taylor said.
But Prewitt said it is Camp's family that is unfriendly, and that the lack of
contact is normal.
"We've never been speaking with each other," Prewitt said.
Prewitt said it has been rough on her family, too, "because they (Camp's
family) think we have done something wrong, which we haven't."
Prewitt said state investigators came to her home.
"We gave them permission to search the house, and they took a bunch of papers
and stuff and haven't returned them." No further reports
OSBI spokesman Kym Koch said agents have been unable
to find anyone who saw Camp, Kregear or Cynthia at the Wal-Mart parking lot in
Chandler on May 22.
Repeated ground and air searches of the Shamrock area and the use of dogs
trained to locate bodies have turned up
nothing. With no leads, Koch said, agents will take the
case to a national TV show on unsolved mysteries.
Taylor said asking for the show's help "should have been done a lot sooner."
Like Taylor, state agents are concerned that the three are dead.
But "at this point we can't really call it a homicide," Koch said.

It's been almost three months since two Oklahoma City women and a child were
reported missing, but Jackie Taylor says she won't give up searching for the
bodies of her missing daughter and granddaughter.
"We've known from the beginning that they were murdered. But we don't have
the proof or evidence to bring this to trial. I'll never give up on this till
the case is solved or the day I die," Taylor said.Lisa Kregear, 25; Jackie's
daughter, Wendy L. Camp, 23, and Camp's daughter Cynthia Britto, 6, were
reported missing May 29.
Since their disappearance, Taylor, a librarian at the University of Central
Oklahoma, said her life has been a "nightmare." Taylor said she had a "mental
breakdown" and has been unable to work since Camp and Britto made the ill-fated
trip to Shamrock on May 29.
She said everything just seems to have gone wrong since her daughter's
disappearance.
"Our two cars broke down, and it took a week and half for my husband to fix
them so he could go to work. It seems like it's continuous. I feel like I'm on
bottom, and I just keep getting knocked down farther," Taylor said.
At the urging of her psychiatrist, Taylor and her family last Thursday
conducted a memorial service in Mesquite, Texas, for her daughter and
granddaughter.
"It was just a way of going through the grieving process, some kind of way of
putting things in perspective," Taylor said.
"We have 8-by-10 pictures made of them and had them displayed on an altar. We
had our memorial around that altar. I have an uncle who is a minister, and he
officiated," Taylor said.
She said she hopes someone will come forward and give
information about the disappearance.
Kregear, Camp and Camp's daughter went to see Camp's 4-year-old son Jonathon
Noe at his father's home in Shamrock on May 29, Taylor said.
Taylor said Camp called her husband in Oklahoma City from the Shamrock Cafe
about 5 p.m., and that was the last time the family heard from the three.
They were last seen getting out of a 1983 gray Audi in Chandler, Taylor said.
The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation and local authorities have
conducted aerial and ground searches for the three but with no luck. Last month
the bureau offered a reward of up to $5,000 to help find them.
Wednesday OSBI spokesman Kym Koch said investigators still have no major
leads.
Kregear is 5 feet, 4 inches tall, weighs 130 pounds, and has blond hair and
blue eyes. She was last seen wearing acid-washed jeans and a yellow and white
striped shirt.
Camp is 5 feet, 3 inches tall, weighs 200 pounds and has brown hair and eyes.
Camp has multiple sclerosis and walks with a limp. She was last seen wearing a
red sweat shirt and pants and white tennis shoes. Officials fear for her safety
because she was not carrying her life-preserving medication.
Britto is 3 feet tall, weighs about 60 pounds and has brown hair and brown
eyes. She was last seen wearing a pink sweater, light blue corduroy pants, a
blue and black striped shirt and tennis shoes.
Anyone with information should call the OSBI's 24-hour hot line,
1-800-522-8017.

Stacy McCall used to make friends laugh with a hillbilly accent while hanging
out at a fast-food restaurant.
Her aunt Nancy Clymer said people called her niece "spacey Stacy," because
after being told a joke she would pause and say, "Oh, I get it."McCall, 18, the
source of laughter and light-hearted silliness only a few short weeks ago, is
the focus of prayers and the cause of horror, fear and grief now.
Three women, Stacy McCall, her friend Suzie Streeter, 19, and Streeter's
mother, Sherrill E. Levitt, 47, have been missing from Levitt's Springfield,
Mo., home since June 7.
McCall's car is still parked in the driveway of her friend's home in Missouri
that is still sealed off by yellow police tape. A cocker spaniel named Bubba
that was a graduation gift to McCall is still waiting to see his new owner.
At the Oklahoma City home of Stacy McCall's aunt, the days hang heavy with
anxiety and anticipation. Nancy Clymer moves quickly to the telephone each time
it rings waiting for news about her niece.
"`We have to believe she is alive, but when you wake up in the morning ...
mornings are hard," Clymer said.
"It has not been a very happy experience to say the least."
Her niece McCall has already been mentioned on "America's Most Wanted" and on
a CBS This Morning television newscast.
The attractive girl with light brown hair that falls below her waist also now
is seen on huge billboards across southwestern Missouri that ask for information
in the missing persons case.
Aileen Moore, the missing girl's grandmother, has been absent from her home
in The Village and from her The Village Christian Church for three weeks as she
has stayed near her daughter's home in Springfield.
This week, Nancy Clymer recalled the telephone call she got from her sister
and mother from Springfield at 5 a.m. June 8.
Moore had gone to Missouri to see her granddaughter Stacy McCall graduate
from Kickapoo High School the night before the girl vanished.
"My sister and my mother were both sobbing to tell me Stacy was missing,"
said Clymer, who lives in northwest Oklahoma City with her husband, Robert, and
two children, ages 12 and 9.
Clymer already has answered prank phone calls from people claiming to be her
niece while her mother and sister have had their share of cruel phone calls in
Missouri.
Psychics call to offer visions such as: "I see them tied up in some place
that is hot."
She said psychics' words give her hope the girl is still alive, but
information from police has been hard to come by although they are doing their
best.
"The police say they have no clues," Clymer said.
Clymer explained that police have told the family that Stacy McCall went
through high school graduation ceremonies Saturday, June 6. After going to a
birthday party that followed the ceremony, she was suppose to go to friend
Janelle Kirby's house where a group of girls had planned to spend the night. The
girls were planning a trip to WhiteWater in Branson, Mo., the next morning.
Then Streeter said she felt sick to her stomach and wanted to go home to her
mother Sherrill Levitt's house around 2:30 a.m. June 7, and they left the suburb
of Battlefield in two cars.
Clymer said her niece and Streeter were not close friends, and Streeter hung
out with a group of people her niece did not associate with.
Yet McCall followed the friend home to the mother's house. Levitt lived there
alone with her daughter and a small "yippy" dog named Cinnamon, which is now
with a neighbor, Clymer said.
Springfield police told the family the three women's purses were all found in
one room and all the beds were unmade in a house usually meticulously clean, as
if the women had already gone to sleep that night, Clymer said. A porch light
had been knocked out, police said.
The next morning, the girls did not show up to go to WhiteWater, and at noon
Kirby went to the home but found nobody there and the television on, Clymer
said.
Clymer said she is staying in Oklahoma City for now, watching her mother's
house in The Village.
"They have so much community support around there now; I figure at some point
that is going to slow down and I am going to be needed there," she said.
She said she has also watched another case of three missing females from
Chandler closely because she empathizes and feels there may be similarities.
"I would hope the police and FBI would have looked into that," she said.
In Oklahoma on May 29, Wendy Camp, 23, Lisa Kregear, 23, and Cynthia Britto,
6, disappeared after being dropped off at a Wal-Mart in Chandler.
Chandler police chief Mel Roberts said he has already been contacted by news
gatherers from CBS's "48 Hours," who are working on a story about the
Springfield case.
Anyone with information about the case can call the Springfield police at
417-864-1758 or 417-864-1755.

Police conducted a ground and aerial search Thursday in three counties for two
women and a girl missing since May 29.
The search was fruitless, but, weather permitting, the aerial search will
continue today, said Kym Koch, Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation
spokeswoman.Jackie Taylor, mother of Wendy Camp, said Thursday she does not have
much hope that her daughter, who suffers from multiple sclerosis, is still
alive.
Missing with Camp, 23, are her Camp's daughter, Cynthia Britto, 6, and Camp's
sister-in-law, Lisa Renee Kregear, 22.
OSBI agents, joined by Bristow police and Creek County sheriff's officers,
searched Payne, Lincoln and Creek counties, Koch said.
Taylor said Wendy's doctor feared Wendy would be either dead or in a coma
without her medication.
Wendy Camp, her daughter, and her sister-in-law went to Shamrock on May 29,
Taylor said. She said Wendy called her husband about from the Shamrock Cafe
about 5 p.m. that Friday.
That was the last time any of Wendy's family have heard from her, Taylor
said.
Koch said the three were riding home with an acquaintance when they got into
an argument with the driver.
The driver dropped the three off at a Wal-Mart in Chandler between 5:30 to 6
p.m., Koch said.
Camp is 5 feet 3 inches tall, weighing about 200 pounds and has brown hair
and blue eyes. She was wearing red sweat pants, a red shirt and white tennis
shoes. She walks with a limp.
Britto is 3 feet tall, weighing about 60 pounds and has brown hair and brown
eyes. She was wearing a pink sweat shirt, a blue and black striped shirt, light
blue corduroy slacks and tennis shoes.
Kregear is 5 feet, 4 inches tall, weighing about 130 pounds and has blond
hair and blue eyes. She was wearing acid-washed jeans, a yellow and white
striped shirt, black ankle boots and yellow earrings.
Anyone who may have seen the three get out of a gray 1985 Audi at the store
is asked to call the OSBI's 24-hour hot line at 1-800-522-8017.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - A search for two women, one suffering from multiple
sclerosis, and a 6-year-old girl who have been missing since May 29 proved
fruitless Thursday, authorities said.
Missing with Wendy Camp, 23, who has multiple sclerosis, are her daughter,
Cynthia Britto, 6, and Camp's sister-in-law, Lisa Renee Kregear, 22.Oklahoma
State Bureau of Investigation agents, joined by
Bristow police and Creek County sheriff's officers, searched along highways in
Payne, Lincoln and Creek counties, said OSBI spokesman Kym Koch.
Oklahoma City police officers in one of the department's helicopters and
Oklahoma Highway Patrol troopers in an airplane searched the area from the air,
Koch said.
"It got too hot so the search was discontinued this (Thursday) afternoon,"
Koch said.
Koch said the aerial search was to continue today, weather permitting.
Jackie Taylor, Camp's mother, said she doesn't hold much hope that her
daughter is still alive because she doesn't believe she could have survived 20
days without her medication.
"When they tried to wean her off the medication over a period of six months
one time, within one week after they stopped the medication, she could not walk
and began having seizures," Taylor said.
Camp, her daughter and her sister-in-law went to Shamrock May 29, Taylor
said. She said Camp called her husband from the Shamrock Cafe that afternoon and
that was the last time any of her family have heard from her.
The three were riding home with an acquaintance when they apparently got into
an argument with the driver, who then dropped them off at a store in Chandler,
Koch said.

Title: Woman Missing With 2 Others Needs Medication, Police Say
Author: Judy Kuhlman
Date: June 4, 1992
Section: NEWS
Page: 1
The family of two women and a 6-year-old girl reported missing last Friday fears
one of the women may die if she doesn't receive her medication soon for multiple
sclerosis, state and Oklahoma City authorities said Wednesday.
Wendy Camp, 23; her daughter, Cynthia Britto, 6; and Camp's sister-in-law,
Lisa Renee Kregear, 22, all of northwest Oklahoma City, were last seen at a
Wal-Mart store in Chandler, Oklahoma City police Lt. John Riley said."Our main
concern is that Wendy suffers from MS, and she has been off her medication since
last Friday. Her doctor advises us that she is in a life-threatening situation.
If she is found, she needs to be rushed to the nearest hospital," Oklahoma State
Bureau of Investigation spokeswoman Kym Koch said.
Riley said police suspect foul play because family members told them the two
women, especially Camp, were careful about letting family members know their
whereabouts.
Also, Camp did not have her medicine with her Friday, and she never misses
taking her daily medication, Riley said. Camp's daughter was taught how to dial
a telephone and whom to call in case of emergencies because of her mother's
illness, Riley said.
"This is so out of character for these women," Koch said.
Oklahoma City police took the initial missing persons report from Camp's
family and then passed the information on to the OSBI, Koch said.
Koch said OSBI agents and Creek County sheriff's deputies are working on the
case.
Riley said Camp's husband, Leon Camp, last heard from Wendy when she called
from Shamrock in Creek County about 5 p.m. Friday to say she would be home in a
couple of hours. The three were riding with an acquaintance.
During the ride back, the three who are missing got into an argument with the
driver, and she dropped them off at the Wal-Mart in Chandler about 5:30 p.m. to
6 p.m., Riley said.
Camp is 5 feet 3 inches tall weighing about 200 pounds and has brown hair
and blue eyes. She was last seen wearing red sweat pants, a red shirt and white
Reebok tennis shoes. Camp also walks with a limp.
Britto is 3 feet tall weighing about 60 pounds and has brown hair and brown
eyes. She was last seen wearing a pink sweat shirt, a blue and black striped
shirt, light blue corduroy slacks and tennis shoes.
Kregear is 5 feet 4 inches tall weighing about 130 pounds and has blond hair
and blue eyes. She was last seen wearing acid-wash jeans, a yellow and white
striped shirt, black ankle boots and yellow earrings.
Anyone who may have seen the two women and girl get out of a 1985 gray Audi
at the Wal-Mart last Friday is asked to call the OSBI's 24-hour hot line at
1-800-522-8017.

If she's alive, Cynthia Britto turns 11 today.
She has been missing since she disappeared with her mother and her aunt May
29, 1992, in Chandler.Britto, her mother, Wendy Camp, who was 23 at the time of
the disappearance, and the girl's aunt, Lisa Renee Kregear, who was 22, have not
been seen in almost 5 years.
The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation has released a computerized image
of how Britto might look now in hopes the public might be able to help in the
case.
State agents said they suspect foul play in the disappearance, but they have
had few leads since 1992.
"Wendy Camp suffered from multiple sclerosis. She needed medication and
assistance getting around, so investigators don't believe she would have taken
Cynthia anywhere without telling family members," OSBI spokeswoman Kym Koch
said.
Britto, Camp and Kregear were all from northwest Oklahoma City. They were
last seen getting out of a 1983 dark blue Audi at the Wal-Mart in Chandler.
The three were returning from Shamrock, where Camp had been visiting her
4-year-old son.
Anyone with information about the case can call the National Center for
Missing and Exploited Children at (800) 843-5678 or the OSBI at (405) 848-6724.

CHANDLER - The reported disappearance of two Oklahoma City women and a child
from the Wal-Mart parking lot in Chandler will be featured on the television
program "Unsolved Mysteries," at 7 p.m. Wednesday.
"We're hoping someone will see this who has information on the case,"
Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation spokesman Kym Koch said Tuesday.Wendy
Laraine Camp, 23, her daughter, Cynthia M. Britto,
7, and Lisa Renee Kregear, 25, were last seen on May 29,
1992, after reportedly being dropped off at the Chandler
Wal-Mart following an argument with their driver, police said.
"We have a concern they are dead. Wendy Camp has MS (multiple sclerosis) and
did not have enough medication to last," Koch said.
The OSBI has sent agent Jackie Johnson to the "Unsolved Mysteries" studio in
Burbank, Calif., to take calls in
the event any come in Wednesday night following the program, to be broadcast on
Channel 2 in Tulsa and Channel 4 in Oklahoma City, Koch said.
"We will also have additional staff in our office in case we get any calls,"
Koch said. OSBI headquarters can be
reached at 1-800-522-8017.
The three had traveled from Oklahoma City to Creek County with Wendy Camp's
ex-mother-in-law, Beverly Noe of Bristow, Chandler Police Chief Mel Roberts
said.
"Beverly Noe was the last person we know that saw them," Roberts said. He
said Noe told police "they got into an
argument somewhere between the Shamrock-Bristow area and
Chandler and she dropped them off at the Chandler Wal-Mart and drove off."

Title: Acting's for `Wimps,' Believed Tulsa Actor Until College Course
Author: Natalie Nichols

"For me, it's just a hobby I love," said Tulsa resident
Doug Bauer about his acting career. "When I was in college (at the University of
Oklahoma), I took an acting course
and liked it a lot. I was naive and thought I could be a movie star.
"But it wasn't something I'd wanted to do all my life. In high school I
thought the drama people were wimps. I
was a football player."Despite the fact that he was a late bloomer in the
dramatic world, Bauer seems to have a knack for it. Thanks in part to his rugged
good looks, he has been seen in two feature films, three television shows and
about 20 national and
international commercials in the last five years.
His latest credit is an upcoming appearance on Wednesday's episode of
"Unsolved Mysteries" (which airs at 7 p.m.
on KJRH, Channel 2), where Bauer plays a man whose ex-wife and her daughter have
come up missing.
"This is a story about an Oklahoma case," Bauer said.
"The show was put together in Oklahoma City and my agent
told me about the audition, and I got it. I play a character named Chad. At
first, I was in several scenes, but I understand that a couple of them got cut."
The man Bauer is playing on the screen is Chad Noe, whose ex-wife Wendy Camp
and Camp's 7-year-old daughter, Cynthia Britto, along with Camp's sister-in-law,
Lisa Kregear, disappeared on May 29, 1992, after they were allegedly left at a
Wal-Mart store in Chandler by Noe's mother.
Noe has custody of his and Camp's son, and Noe's mother, Beverly Noe, had
offered Camp a ride from Oklahoma City
to Shamrock to visit the little boy, as Camp had no other means of
transportation.
Camp was last heard from when she called her husband from a payphone at a
Shamrock cafe to say that the visit had
gone well and they were on their way home.
They never made it.
Beverly Noe said she and Camp argued in the car, and she asked the women and
little girl to get out at the Wal-Mart store. No witnesses have come forward to
place the trio
at the Wal-Mart, and officials have no other leads.

Title: Waiting Game Is 8 Months Old - Missing Women, Child Now Presumed Dead
Author: David Fallis
Date: February 7, 1993
Section: NEWS
Page: A1
EDMOND - Wendy Camp and her 7-year-old daughter have
been put to rest, but not buried.
Eight months after they - along with Camp's 25-year-old sister-in-law, Lisa
Ranea Kregear - disappeared on a trip to Shamrock, family members and state
agents believe the three are dead."We know in our hearts they were murdered. We
just don't
have any evidence to prove it," said Camp's mother, Jackie Taylor.
There are no leads, no suspects and no reason for the two women to disappear
voluntarily - the 23-year-old Camp was partially paralyzed and dependent on
medication.
State investigators are reduced to waiting, but Taylor said her family could
not. In August they held a memorial
service for Camp and daughter Cynthia Britto to "obtain
closure" until they know what really happened.
It is "a matter of waiting for the phone to ring," Taylor said.
The trip to Shamrock - a tiny town nestled among rolling hills just northwest
of Bristow - was a chance for Camp
to see her 5-year-old son, Jonathon, who is in the custody of her ex-husband,
Chad Noe, Taylor said.
"She was excited. It was the first time she had seen Jonathon in six or eight
months," Taylor said.
Camp and Noe divorced several years ago, and Noe took custody of Jonathon
when Camp was hospitalized in a coma from multiple sclerosis, Taylor said.
Taylor said when her daughter regained her health, she was intent on seeing
her child.
It became a court fight and Camp eventually won the right to visit Jonathon,
Taylor said.
On May 28, Noe's mother, Beverly Noe of Bristow, called and offered to take
Camp to visit the boy, Taylor said.
"Wendy was elated" at the offer, Taylor said.
Taylor said Camp's husband was worried about his wife's safety and insisted
that his sister, Kregear, go along.
On May 29, Noe picked up the two women - and Cynthia - at Camp's Oklahoma
City home, Taylor said.
About 1:45 p.m. Camp called Taylor and said they had arrived in Shamrock.
Camp called again shortly before 5 p.m. from a pay phone in front of a
Shamrock cafe.
She said the visit had gone well, that Beverly Noe was waiting to take them
home and that "they were on their way," Taylor said.
The pay phone is the last place lawmen can verify the trio's whereabouts.
Beverly Noe ordered the two women and child to get out of her car at the
Chandler Wal-Mart about 6 p.m. after they
argued, according to Beverly Noe's mother, Ida Prewitt.
Prewitt said Camp "badmouthed" her family as soon as they left Shamrock.
Noe was not available for comment, but Prewitt said she told her daughter to
take her home to Bristow before taking Camp home.
"She did, and she went on," Prewitt said.
By 10:30 p.m. when the three failed to return, "we were frantic," Taylor
said.
Taylor said the family filed missing person's reports with Oklahoma City
police. Because they did not have phone numbers or addresses for the Noes, they
decided to go to the Bristow police the next day, Taylor said.
Prewitt said that was when her family learned from police the three had not
made it home.
"We were not close. But we hate to see anything happen to anyone no matter
who it is," Prewitt said.
Prewitt defended her daughter's decision to put the women and the child out
of the car.
She said Camp was intent on fighting, despite Beverly Noe's efforts to
arrange the visit with Jonathon as a gesture of good will.
"She (Beverly) took all she could stand and let them out," Prewitt said.
Investigators have found no one who saw the two women and the child at the
Wal-Mart, said Oklahoma State Bureau of
Investigation spokesman Kym Koch.
In an effort to drum up new leads, Koch said the case will be featured on the
national television show "Unsolved Mysteries" this summer.
Taylor hopes the show brings answers - and a finality - to what she is
already trying to accept.
"I know they are at peace. I know they are with God," Taylor said

Title: 3 lost without a trace - After four months, families in dispute
Author: DAVID FALLIS
Date: September 26, 1992
Section: NEWS
Page: 1A
OKLAHOMA CITY - Jackie Taylor says photographs on
her desk at work are constant reminders that she has given up for dead her
daughter, daughter-in-law and granddaughter.
Law enforcement agents do not dispute her worst fears.On May 22, Taylor's
daughter, Wendy Camp, 23; Camp's daughter, Cynthia Britto, 6; and Camp's
sister-in-law, Lisa Ranea
Kregear, 25; disappeared after a visit with relatives in Shamrock.
Camp, who lives with her husband in Oklahoma City, was in no condition to be
separated from her family or from medical attention, Taylor said.
Camp's right side is paralyzed from multiple sclerosis, and Taylor said her
daughter has to take steroid medication eight times a day.
Without it, "within a week, she would have been totally comatose or dead,"
Taylor said.
Cynthia was to begin first grade this fall, and Kregear has a husband and two
small children in Oklahoma City, Taylor said.
Taylor, 40, said the ordeal drove her to a mental breakdown and a six-week
hospital stay.
"I'll never get over this. I've learned to try to have some kind of routine
to get through a day," Taylor said.
Seen at pay phone
The last verified reports, according to state investigators, place the two
women and the brown-haired girl at a pay phone in Shamrock, a small Creek County
town nestled among rolling hills and oil leases 13 miles northwest of Bristow.
Taylor said the three were returning to Oklahoma City from Shamrock after a
visit to Camp's 4-year-old son, who lives with Camp's ex-husband, Chad Noe.
The couple divorced several years ago, Taylor said, and Noe was given custody
of the boy. At the time, Taylor said, her daughter was seriously ill and in the
hospital.
Taylor said the family fought for and was granted visitation rights. On May
21, she said, Noe's mother, Beverly Noe of Bristow, called and asked if Camp
wanted to see the 4-year-old the next day.
At the time, Taylor said, she thought the offer was a ploy to look good to
the court.
"They wanted just my daughter to go," Taylor said.
Taylor said Camp's husband was worried about his wife and insisted that his
sister, Kregear, go along. The two took Cynthia as well, she said.
Bristow woman drove on trip
About 11 a.m. May 22, Taylor said, Beverly Noe drove
to Oklahoma City and picked up the three.
About 1:45 p.m., Taylor said, her daughter phoned from outside the Shamrock
cafe to say they had arrived and were waiting for her ex-husband to come down
the dirt road to meet them.
Shortly before 5 p.m., Taylor said Camp called again from the cafe pay phone.
She said her ex-husband had just dropped them off and that Beverly Noe was
coming to pick them up for the trip back.
It was the last time family members say they heard from Camp.
Beverly Noe could not be reached for comment, but Ida Prewitt, her mother,
said her daughter made arrangements May 21 for Camp to see the 4-year-old,
because Camp's family "insisted on visitation rights."
She said her daughter was extremely tired, but "offered" to drive anyway, "to
help her out."
"Beverly has had to be the goat that does everything for everybody," Prewitt
said. "She always went and got them and took them back."
Argument cut trip short
Prewitt said about 5 p.m. May 22, her daughter picked
the three up at the cafe in Shamrock.
She said her daughter told her that on the trip back to Oklahoma City, Camp
"badmouthed" the Noe family.
Prewitt said her daughter told her she became fed up with Camp and put the
three out of the car at the Chandler Wal-Mart.
When Camp failed to arrive home that evening or call, Taylor said her family
grew frantic. At 10:30 p.m., she said, they called police and filed a
missing-persons report.
Taylor said the family did not have the Noes' telephone numbers, so she
waited until morning, then drove with her husband to the Bristow police station.
Prewitt said her family did not realize that Camp, Kregear and Cynthia had
not made it home until law officers contacted them early Saturday.
"We were not close. But we hate to see anything happen to anyone no matter
who it is."
Little contact
Taylor said since the disappearances, the Noes have
made no attempt to telephone her family. The only contact came during a recent
court hearing about Camp's 4-year-old son.
"To me, if I took someone's family off and they didn't return, the first
thing I'd want to do is get with the family," Taylor said.
But Prewitt said it is Camp's family that is unfriendly, and that the lack of
contact is normal.
"We've never been speaking with each other," Prewitt said.
Prewitt said it has been rough on her family, too, "because they (Camp's
family) think we have done something wrong, which we haven't."
Prewitt said state investigators came to her home.
"We gave them permission to search the house, and they took a bunch of papers
and stuff and haven't returned them." No further reports
OSBI spokesman Kym Koch said agents have been unable
to find anyone who saw Camp, Kregear or Cynthia at the Wal-Mart parking lot in
Chandler on May 22.
Repeated ground and air searches of the Shamrock area and the use of dogs
trained to locate bodies have turned up
nothing. With no leads, Koch said, agents will take the
case to a national TV show on unsolved mysteries.
Taylor said asking for the show's help "should have been done a lot sooner."
Like Taylor, state agents are concerned that the three are dead.
But "at this point we can't really call it a homicide," Koch said.

It's been almost three months since two Oklahoma City women and a child were
reported missing, but Jackie Taylor says she won't give up searching for the
bodies of her missing daughter and granddaughter.
"We've known from the beginning that they were murdered. But we don't have
the proof or evidence to bring this to trial. I'll never give up on this till
the case is solved or the day I die," Taylor said.Lisa Kregear, 25; Jackie's
daughter, Wendy L. Camp, 23, and Camp's daughter Cynthia Britto, 6, were
reported missing May 29.
Since their disappearance, Taylor, a librarian at the University of Central
Oklahoma, said her life has been a "nightmare." Taylor said she had a "mental
breakdown" and has been unable to work since Camp and Britto made the ill-fated
trip to Shamrock on May 29.
She said everything just seems to have gone wrong since her daughter's
disappearance.
"Our two cars broke down, and it took a week and half for my husband to fix
them so he could go to work. It seems like it's continuous. I feel like I'm on
bottom, and I just keep getting knocked down farther," Taylor said.
At the urging of her psychiatrist, Taylor and her family last Thursday
conducted a memorial service in Mesquite, Texas, for her daughter and
granddaughter.
"It was just a way of going through the grieving process, some kind of way of
putting things in perspective," Taylor said.
"We have 8-by-10 pictures made of them and had them displayed on an altar. We
had our memorial around that altar. I have an uncle who is a minister, and he
officiated," Taylor said.
She said she hopes someone will come forward and give
information about the disappearance.
Kregear, Camp and Camp's daughter went to see Camp's 4-year-old son Jonathon
Noe at his father's home in Shamrock on May 29, Taylor said.
Taylor said Camp called her husband in Oklahoma City from the Shamrock Cafe
about 5 p.m., and that was the last time the family heard from the three.
They were last seen getting out of a 1983 gray Audi in Chandler, Taylor said.
The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation and local authorities have
conducted aerial and ground searches for the three but with no luck. Last month
the bureau offered a reward of up to $5,000 to help find them.
Wednesday OSBI spokesman Kym Koch said investigators still have no major
leads.
Kregear is 5 feet, 4 inches tall, weighs 130 pounds, and has blond hair and
blue eyes. She was last seen wearing acid-washed jeans and a yellow and white
striped shirt.
Camp is 5 feet, 3 inches tall, weighs 200 pounds and has brown hair and eyes.
Camp has multiple sclerosis and walks with a limp. She was last seen wearing a
red sweat shirt and pants and white tennis shoes. Officials fear for her safety
because she was not carrying her life-preserving medication.
Britto is 3 feet tall, weighs about 60 pounds and has brown hair and brown
eyes. She was last seen wearing a pink sweater, light blue corduroy pants, a
blue and black striped shirt and tennis shoes.
Anyone with information should call the OSBI's 24-hour hot line,

Stacy McCall used to make friends laugh with a hillbilly accent while hanging
out at a fast-food restaurant.
Her aunt Nancy Clymer said people called her niece "spacey Stacy," because
after being told a joke she would pause and say, "Oh, I get it."McCall, 18, the
source of laughter and light-hearted silliness only a few short weeks ago, is
the focus of prayers and the cause of horror, fear and grief now.
Three women, Stacy McCall, her friend Suzie Streeter, 19, and Streeter's
mother, Sherrill E. Levitt, 47, have been missing from Levitt's Springfield,
Mo., home since June 7.
McCall's car is still parked in the driveway of her friend's home in Missouri
that is still sealed off by yellow police tape. A cocker spaniel named Bubba
that was a graduation gift to McCall is still waiting to see his new owner.
At the Oklahoma City home of Stacy McCall's aunt, the days hang heavy with
anxiety and anticipation. Nancy Clymer moves quickly to the telephone each time
it rings waiting for news about her niece.
"`We have to believe she is alive, but when you wake up in the morning ...
mornings are hard," Clymer said.
"It has not been a very happy experience to say the least."
Her niece McCall has already been mentioned on "America's Most Wanted" and on
a CBS This Morning television newscast.
The attractive girl with light brown hair that falls below her waist also now
is seen on huge billboards across southwestern Missouri that ask for information
in the missing persons case.
Aileen Moore, the missing girl's grandmother, has been absent from her home
in The Village and from her The Village Christian Church for three weeks as she
has stayed near her daughter's home in Springfield.
This week, Nancy Clymer recalled the telephone call she got from her sister
and mother from Springfield at 5 a.m. June 8.
Moore had gone to Missouri to see her granddaughter Stacy McCall graduate
from Kickapoo High School the night before the girl vanished.
"My sister and my mother were both sobbing to tell me Stacy was missing,"
said Clymer, who lives in northwest Oklahoma City with her husband, Robert, and
two children, ages 12 and 9.
Clymer already has answered prank phone calls from people claiming to be her
niece while her mother and sister have had their share of cruel phone calls in
Missouri.
Psychics call to offer visions such as: "I see them tied up in some place
that is hot."
She said psychics' words give her hope the girl is still alive, but
information from police has been hard to come by although they are doing their
best.
"The police say they have no clues," Clymer said.
Clymer explained that police have told the family that Stacy McCall went
through high school graduation ceremonies Saturday, June 6. After going to a
birthday party that followed the ceremony, she was suppose to go to friend
Janelle Kirby's house where a group of girls had planned to spend the night. The
girls were planning a trip to WhiteWater in Branson, Mo., the next morning.
Then Streeter said she felt sick to her stomach and wanted to go home to her
mother Sherrill Levitt's house around 2:30 a.m. June 7, and they left the suburb
of Battlefield in two cars.
Clymer said her niece and Streeter were not close friends, and Streeter hung
out with a group of people her niece did not associate with.
Yet McCall followed the friend home to the mother's house. Levitt lived there
alone with her daughter and a small "yippy" dog named Cinnamon, which is now
with a neighbor, Clymer said.
Springfield police told the family the three women's purses were all found in
one room and all the beds were unmade in a house usually meticulously clean, as
if the women had already gone to sleep that night, Clymer said. A porch light
had been knocked out, police said.
The next morning, the girls did not show up to go to WhiteWater, and at noon
Kirby went to the home but found nobody there and the television on, Clymer
said.
Clymer said she is staying in Oklahoma City for now, watching her mother's
house in The Village.
"They have so much community support around there now; I figure at some point
that is going to slow down and I am going to be needed there," she said.
She said she has also watched another case of three missing females from
Chandler closely because she empathizes and feels there may be similarities.
"I would hope the police and FBI would have looked into that," she said.
In Oklahoma on May 29, Wendy Camp, 23, Lisa Kregear, 23, and Cynthia Britto,
6, disappeared after being dropped off at a Wal-Mart in Chandler.
Chandler police chief Mel Roberts said he has already been contacted by news
gatherers from CBS's "48 Hours," who are working on a story about the
Springfield case.
Anyone with information about the case can call the Springfield police at
417-864-1758 or 417-864-1755.

Police conducted a ground and aerial search Thursday in three counties for two
women and a girl missing since May 29.
The search was fruitless, but, weather permitting, the aerial search will
continue today, said Kym Koch, Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation
spokeswoman.Jackie Taylor, mother of Wendy Camp, said Thursday she does not have
much hope that her daughter, who suffers from multiple sclerosis, is still
alive.
Missing with Camp, 23, are her Camp's daughter, Cynthia Britto, 6, and Camp's
sister-in-law, Lisa Renee Kregear, 22.
OSBI agents, joined by Bristow police and Creek County sheriff's officers,
searched Payne, Lincoln and Creek counties, Koch said.
Taylor said Wendy's doctor feared Wendy would be either dead or in a coma
without her medication.
Wendy Camp, her daughter, and her sister-in-law went to Shamrock on May 29,
Taylor said. She said Wendy called her husband about from the Shamrock Cafe
about 5 p.m. that Friday.
That was the last time any of Wendy's family have heard from her, Taylor
said.
Koch said the three were riding home with an acquaintance when they got into
an argument with the driver.
The driver dropped the three off at a Wal-Mart in Chandler between 5:30 to 6
p.m., Koch said.
Camp is 5 feet 3 inches tall, weighing about 200 pounds and has brown hair
and blue eyes. She was wearing red sweat pants, a red shirt and white tennis
shoes. She walks with a limp.
Britto is 3 feet tall, weighing about 60 pounds and has brown hair and brown
eyes. She was wearing a pink sweat shirt, a blue and black striped shirt, light
blue corduroy slacks and tennis shoes.
Kregear is 5 feet, 4 inches tall, weighing about 130 pounds and has blond
hair and blue eyes. She was wearing acid-washed jeans, a yellow and white
striped shirt, black ankle boots and yellow earrings.
Anyone who may have seen the three get out of a gray 1985 Audi at the store

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - A search for two women, one suffering from multiple
sclerosis, and a 6-year-old girl who have been missing since May 29 proved
fruitless Thursday, authorities said.
Missing with Wendy Camp, 23, who has multiple sclerosis, are her daughter,
Cynthia Britto, 6, and Camp's sister-in-law, Lisa Renee Kregear, 22.Oklahoma
State Bureau of Investigation agents, joined by
Bristow police and Creek County sheriff's officers, searched along highways in
Payne, Lincoln and Creek counties, said OSBI spokesman Kym Koch.
Oklahoma City police officers in one of the department's helicopters and
Oklahoma Highway Patrol troopers in an airplane searched the area from the air,
Koch said.
"It got too hot so the search was discontinued this (Thursday) afternoon,"
Koch said.
Koch said the aerial search was to continue today, weather permitting.
Jackie Taylor, Camp's mother, said she doesn't hold much hope that her
daughter is still alive because she doesn't believe she could have survived 20
days without her medication.
"When they tried to wean her off the medication over a period of six months
one time, within one week after they stopped the medication, she could not walk
and began having seizures," Taylor said.
Camp, her daughter and her sister-in-law went to Shamrock May 29, Taylor
said. She said Camp called her husband from the Shamrock Cafe that afternoon and
that was the last time any of her family have heard from her.
The three were riding home with an acquaintance when they apparently got into
an argument with the driver, who then dropped them off at a store in Chandler,

concern is that Wendy suffers from MS, and she has been off her medication since
last Friday. Her doctor advises us that she is in a life-threatening situation.
If she is found, she needs to be rushed to the nearest hospital," Oklahoma State
Bureau of Investigation spokeswoman Kym Koch said.
Riley said police suspect foul play because family members told them the two
women, especially Camp, were careful about letting family members know their
whereabouts.
Also, Camp did not have her medicine with her Friday, and she never misses
taking her daily medication, Riley said. Camp's daughter was taught how to dial
a telephone and whom to call in case of emergencies because of her mother's
illness, Riley said.
"This is so out of character for these women," Koch said.
Oklahoma City police took the initial missing persons report from Camp's
family and then passed the information on to the OSBI, Koch said.
Koch said OSBI agents and Creek County sheriff's deputies are working on the
case.
Riley said Camp's husband, Leon Camp, last heard from Wendy when she called
from Shamrock in Creek County about 5 p.m. Friday to say she would be home in a
couple of hours. The three were riding with an acquaintance.
During the ride back, the three who are missing got into an argument with the
driver, and she dropped them off at the Wal-Mart in Chandler about 5:30 p.m. to
6 p.m., Riley said.
Camp is 5 feet 3 inches tall weighing about 200 pounds and has brown hair
and blue eyes. She was last seen wearing red sweat pants, a red shirt and white
Reebok tennis shoes. Camp also walks with a limp.
Britto is 3 feet tall weighing about 60 pounds and has brown hair and brown
eyes. She was last seen wearing a pink sweat shirt, a blue and black striped
shirt, light blue corduroy slacks and tennis shoes.
Kregear is 5 feet 4 inches tall weighing about 130 pounds and has blond hair
and blue eyes. She was last seen wearing acid-wash jeans, a yellow and white
striped shirt, black ankle boots and yellow earrings.
Anyone who may have seen the two women and girl get out of a 1985 gray Audi
at the Wal-Mart last Friday is asked to call the OSBI's 24-hour hot line at
1-800-522-8017.
