Yet another question for unsolved mysteries enthusiasts. Another 80's case profiled on um told the story of Bonnie, a woman who acquired jobs with banks, then stole money out of the safes and disappeared. She made the mistake of having her photo taken, which was shown on the broadcast. Did they catch her?

That case sounds familiar. If I'm not mistaken, that took place in Atlanta, GA in 1986, and that she used the name of Bonnie Wilder (or Walker), even though it might be an alias. Lifetime reran it during the 1990s, but I haven't seen it in a long time. So I'm not sure whether she was ever caught. Nonetheless, I will try to find it somewere on the Internet (google.com is probably the best hope). And if I manage to find a link related to the "Bonnie Wilder" case, I will let you know.

Was this an overweight looking woman with short dark brown hair? I think I remember this one too from a long time ago. I'll do some research too and let you know if I find anything.
