Sheree Allen, 22, was found dead in a dumpster behind a Hollywood Video at 1605 W. 3500 South in West Valley City, Utah, on January 24, 2005. A man searching the trash discovered her wrapped in multiple garbage bags; an autopsy determined she had been strangled. Investigators estimated she may have been in the dumpster for several days before being found.

Allen, a Salt Lake City resident and mother of two sets of twins, was last seen alive on January 23, 2005, at the former Colonial Motel in downtown Salt Lake City. At the time she struggled with drug addiction and prostituted; she faced multiple criminal charges for sexual solicitation. Family members say they worry she trusted the wrong person.

A person of interest named in the case was Carl Big Smooth Swanigan, described as her pimp and the last known person to see her; he gave an initial statement but later stopped cooperating and died in 2014. No arrests or charges have been announced. If anyone knew Sheree, saw her on January 23, 2005, or has information about her contacts that week, please come forward.
