Hitchhikers Vanished Along Rural Highway. 18 Months Later Police Finally Reveal the Truth 

The girl in the truck


What Officer Miller saw as he peered through the cab’s window completely startled him: a nude woman shackled and chained from the roof and wall of the sleeper cab. When the woman saw the officer, she screamed at the top of her lungs, and a man – the truck driver – hurried through the curtains of the sleeper cab into the truck’s front seats. Miller immediately ordered the driver to get off the truck. As the man calmly complied, he assured the officer that everything was fine. He also told Miller that he was armed. Miller scrambled to call for backup.

Soon, Officer Robert Gygax of the Casa Grande Police Department arrived at the scene. The woman was unshackled and immediately brought to the police station. The 27-year-old woman only identified as “the woman in the truck” for security reasons- had bruises all over her and was in total disarray. Officers began asking her questions and the information she gave about her attacker identified the man as Robert Ben Rhoades from Houston, Texas.
