On March 29, Wilder took 18-year-old Sheryl Lynn Bonaventura captive in Grand Junction, Colorado. They were seen together at a diner in Silverton, where they told staff they were heading for Las Vegas with a stop in Durango on the way. On March 30, they were seen at the Four Corners Monument, after which Wilder checked into a motel in Page, Arizona. He shot and stabbed Bonaventura to death around March 31 near the Kanab River in Utah, but her body was not found until May 3.
Wilder then killed 17-year-old Michelle Lynn Korfman, an aspiring model, who disappeared from a Seventeen magazine cover model competition at the Meadows Mall in Las Vegas on April 1. A photograph was taken of Wilder stalking Korfman at the competition. Her body remained undiscovered near a Southern California rest stop until May 11, and was not identified until mid-June via dental X-rays.
