She was reported missing by her daughter two days later. Investigators said a few personal items, including her wallet, were also missing from the home. Most of her belongings, including her cell phone, keys and car were left behind, however.
Capaldi worked from home and was not known to travel outside the area alone. She mainly stayed in or around the house, unless running errands or with family members, according to investigators.
