After 26 years of marriage, Bonnie Lee Schultz was ready to spread her wings. After being a stay-at-home mom to her two children, Josh and Gretchen, she was working part-time and had just started a second job. She was meeting new people and finding new opportunities. In 1997, Bonnie decided that a more drastic life change was in order: she wanted a divorce.

Bonnie’s husband, Rick Schultz, didn’t want to end the marriage, and on July 3, 1997, Bonnie went out with some friends to clear her head. The Indianapolis, Indiana mom was never seen again. At first, Bonnie’s disappearance was thought to be an accident, but when no signs of the 45 year old or her car were found, they began to suspect foul play. Suspicion immediately went to her husband, but could a different man hold the answers to what happened to Bonnie Schultz that night?

If you have information regarding the disappearance of Bonnie Schultz, please contact Detective Kistner with the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department at 317-327-6160.
