Cindy Sue Hunter - Hero Healing Expenses

Dear Friends,

For those of you unfamiliar with this case, Kylen Schulte and Crystal Turner Beck went missing on 8/14/21. In spite of what we hope were the best efforts of the police and Sheriff departments, they were not able to find the girls. Friends, family and co-workers were distraught since they knew how out of character it would be for Ky or Crystal to miss work and not be in touch with anyone. 

Cindy Sue met the girls and Ky’s father Sean-Paul during the time that she owned an art supply store in Moab. Ky was still a teenager at this time so Cindy Sue felt very maternal towards her. They became fast friends due to the cheerful nature of the girls and Cindy Sue displayed some of Sean-Paul’s art in her store. Unfortunately, due to Covid causing a lack of business in 2020 she was forced to close her beautiful store. 

Cindy Sue was in touch with Sean-Paul from the beginning of the disappearance, and on 8/18/21, she decided to head for the mountains and look for the girls herself. Without knowing exactly where to look, she searched for over 5 hours, approaching people whenever she would see someone, in order to ask them if they had seen the girls. She was actually on the phone with Sean-Paul when she found their vehicle and eventually, found Kylen. After the police had secured the scene and found Crystal, Cindy Sue was able to rescue their rabbit Ruth to safety, who had been in her cage without food or water for at least 5 days. We know how much it would have meant to Ky and Crystal to have Ruthie safe and removed from that horrible scene. 

When I spoke with Cindy Sue in mid-September, she told me that she has “cried every day for 30 days”. It is hard to imagine the level of trauma to find loved ones who are deceased, especially in such a way. 

Moab and the families of the girls are so incredibly lucky to have Cindy Sue be able to find them when she did, hopefully helping to preserve some precious evidence. 

It will be a long road to recovery but we ask that if your heart has been touched by Kylen and Crystal’s story, you would donate to this fund which will enable Cindy Sue to get some much needed healing. She also hopes to sell her home in Moab so that she can move to be closer to her children and grandchildren. Your donations will help her cover these costs.

On top of the trauma, Cindy Sue is currently fighting Covid. 

We also encourage everyone to share the story and keep this in the media so that this killer can be found. 

Thank you and Be Kind like Kylen and Crystal.  They are missed very much.
