Tomorrow marks one year since 55-year-old Beth Aper was last seen or heard from by her sister. On August 12, 2022, between 9 and 10 pm, Beth reportedly got out of a vehicle her husband was driving on Judge Orr Road and North Calhan Highway and walked away with only two trash bags of clothes and her cellphone.

Beth was a family-oriented woman who loved her family and never missed a holiday, birthday, or family gathering.  She posted on social media multiple times a day and her last post remains to be on August 12, 2022.

Beth's disappearance is highly concerning due to its sudden nature and severance with family. She has ties to Illinois, the eastern plains communities of El Paso County, and in Fremont County. It is possible she may have traveled to those communities.

The El Paso County Sheriff’s Office has been actively investigating Beth’s disappearance. If members of the community have information regarding Beth’s disappearance or whereabouts, we ask they call our tip line at 719-520-7777.
