For those who knew Amy Beth – Amy Beth Davis’ body has been discovered. She has dropped her robe. There is finally closure for friends and family. My prayers and deepest sympathy goes out to family and friends. She was a wonderful being who shared and gave to those she touched. She shared her gifts with our Earth Dance8 family years ago, her leather work, drum songs, and smiling face. Amy Beth you will be remembered as you were. May you find peace where you are now.

Clarification — Deputies last contacted Davis on Thursday morning, September 12, 2013, during a welfare check requested by a friend. Davis told the deputy she was fine and he referred her to a counseling professional. Davis completed a phone conversation with the counselor in the deputy’s presence with no other indications she was at risk. Davis also agreed to meet with her concerned friend later that day but never did.

After 8 PM, deputies returned to the Davis home at her friend’s request, but she was not there. Deputies searched the neighborhood and Oak Creek area, but could not find her.

On Friday (September 13), the ground search continued and intensified over the weekend with the aid of search and rescue teams and helicopter flyovers. It was Friday when deputies were notified a resident had taken backpack home they found near Oak Creek the previous day. Deputies examined the contents and confirmed the property belonged to Davis. The search was then concentrated in the area where the backpack had been found, but no additional clues were discovered.

Yesterday, deputies continued ground search efforts looking for clues in the Oak Creek area where water levels were now subsiding. This operation continued today, Tuesday, without any sign of Davis. YCSO continues to encourage calls from any with information on Davis’ whereabouts.
