CASE DETAILS:
Felicia Maria WILSON, was born in October 1959. She lived with her parents in Orelia and was due to get married in February 1979.
Felicia Maria WILSON was only 19 years old when she was murdered whilst walking home from her work on Wednesday 10 January 1979.
Felicia commenced work at the Kwinana Community Health Centre (KCHC) on Monday 8 January 1979.
At about 8.25am on Wednesday 10 January 1979 Felicia left her home address and was dropped at work at the KCHC by her father. During the course of the day she was in good spirits and carried out her duties as usual.
At about 4.30pm on this day Felicia left her work address and was last seen by her work colleague who stayed behind to lock up the premises. Felicia’s work colleague saw Felicia walk past a window and onto a footpath in front of the KCHC. This is the last known sighting of Felicia alive.
On the day of her death, Felicia is believed to have walked along a bitumen pathway which leads through light bush land towards the Kwinana Shire Office building. It was approximately a 15-minute walk from her work place to her home address in Orelia.
Felicia’s fiancé and her parents attended at the Kwinana Police Station at about 8.00pm that evening where they submitted a Missing Person’s Report.
Felicia’s family and the police conducted searches of the area in an attempt to locate Felica.
The following morning, Felicia’s work colleagues conducted a search of the bush behind KCHC and located Felica deceased in a small clearing of native bush approximately 70 metres from the bitumen path.
The person or persons responsible for Felicia’s death have not yet been identified despite a very long and intensive investigation.
