    Five years after a Navajo elder vanished, the man who robbed her was released from prison

    Navajo elder Ella Mae Begay disappeared in 2021 after being robbed by Preston Tolth, who was released from prison five years later after serving part of a five-year sentence. Begay's family expressed shock at Tolth's release, which occurred due to time served and good conduct credits, while her disappearance remains unsolved.
