On This Date in Minnesota History: October 30

October 30, 2002 - Erika Dalquist was last seen leaving a Brainerd bar with a local man, Billy Meyears, on this date. Her remains were finally found 18 months later on May 15, 2004, on property owned by Myears’ grandparents.

“An hour after he was profiled on the television show ‘America's Most Wanted,’ Myears was captured June 5, 2004, while working at a carnival in Birmingham, Mich. Myears never went to trial. In October [2004], he pleaded guilty to second-degree unintentional murder in exchange for the dismissal of a charge of second-degree intentional murder.”
