Dark Downeast

The Disappearance of Wilfred "Butch" King III (Vermont)


Listen Later

After spending an early Friday evening hunting in the woods behind his home in Vermont, Wilfred “Butch” King III left his home on two crutches, driving off into the fall night never to be seen alive again. 

Despite years of investigation, what happened on the night of October 24, 1980 remains a mystery. There are many people, from investigators to family, who say they have strong theories about who is behind Butch’s disappearance, yet decades later, police have never even been close to proving those theories right.

  • If you know anything about the disappearance of Wilfred “Butch” King III, please contact Essex Police at (802) 878-8331.
