Circumstances of Disappearance Pockett left her family's home to take a bicycle ride on July 26, 1973. Her bike was found later on Rhoades Road, near her home, close to a wooded area. An extensive search of the woods resulted in no clues as to Pockett's whereabouts. She has not been seen or heard from since. A convicted murderer and known pedophile, confessed to Pockett's killing in the 1970's. He claimed that he buried Pockett in an area near Lawrence, Massachusetts. Pockett's body has never been discovered and the suspect was never charged in her disappearance. He died in prison in 1999. On a related note, the suspect claimed that Pockett was buried near the grave of Angelo Puglisi.
