The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation says her vehicle was recovered June 12th in the parking lot of Pig Out Palace, off I-40 in Henryetta.

Jody Rilee-Wilson's family lives in Morris County in New Jersey.  She had married and moved to Wister, Oklahoma.

Her father, Jim Rilee, is the deputy mayor of Roxbury, New Jersey.

The Rilees say her husband reported her missing on May 9th, when he returned from an out-ofstate funeral. 

They say he had taken the couple's baby with him. 

Rilee-Wilson's parents say they last spoke to their daughter on May 4th, the day before her husband left for the funeral.
