I haven’t seen this case mentioned often, despite the fact that she was heading to Gloucester during a time that the Wests' were active. A Quick Summary: Elizabeth was 23 when she set off for Gloucester in the summer of 1977. She told family and friends she had landed a receptionist's job in Gloucester and that she intended to hitchhike there. She was never heard from again. 44 years later and her daughter and family are no closer to answers as to what happened to her. The last confirmed sighting of Elizabeth was July 1st by her brother. Nobody has stepped forward to say they saw her hitchhiking. The case was cold before it had truly begun. What Makes The Wests Likely Suspects - Fred and Rose West killed 12 young women, including their oldest daughter Heather and Fred's daughter with another woman named Charmaine, between 1967 and 1987. They largely targeted young women they saw hitchhiking - Rose accompanied Fred during these excursions because women would feel safer accepting a lift from a couple. After their arrests in August 1992 and the subsequent reveal of the bodies buried under the house, Fred directed the police to the location of the bodies of his first wife, Anne McFall and baby Charmaine, who was killed by Rose whilst Fred was in prison for a short time. Fred strongly hinted that he had other burial grounds out there, but hung himself prison without any further indication of where these burials were. If Elizabeth Swann were a victim of the Wests', then her body could be anywhere. Of course, the timing could simply be a coincidence, but her circumstances fits their MO perfectly www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands-news/young-mum-who-been-secret-14500218
