Authorities in a rural Oklahoma county have recovered two bodies, believed to be connected to the disappearance of two Kansas women back in March. The bodies were found in Texas County, and will be taken to the Medical Examiner’s Office for identification and to determine the cause and manner of death, according to the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation.
The two missing women, Veronica Butler, 27, and Jilian Kelley, 39, from Hugoton, Kansas, were last seen driving through the Oklahoma panhandle on their way to pick up Butler’s children for a birthday party in Kansas. However, they never arrived at their destination. Their vehicle was later discovered abandoned on a rural highway in Texas County, Oklahoma, near the state line with Kansas.
