Provo twins Amelia and Sophia Johns, now 7, have been missing for about 15 months, and their father is asking for the public's help, KUTV reported Oct. 20. The girls were last seen July 21, 2025, in Provo. [1]
A Utah County warrant issued Sept. 10 charges their mother, Victoria Zoe Vincent, with custodial interference, a third-degree felony. The charge is an allegation, not a conviction. The warrant sets no bail and authorizes extradition, and the judge found she was likely to flee if released. It cites claims that she left Utah without a forwarding address and may be living under assumed names in Washington. [1]
Father Joshua Johns told KUTV the mother took the girls to a gymnastics class at the Orem Recreation Center that day and that the family's vehicle was later found in the parking lot. A divorce decree finalized in December 2025 gave Johns sole custody, according to police. Provo police are working with the U.S. Marshals Service. Johns said he has heard of possible sightings in Texas, Oregon, Washington and Northern California, but none is confirmed. [1]
Johns is working with Rep. Stephen Whyte on legislation addressing gaps in cases where one parent takes a child. Anyone with information can call Provo police detectives at 801-852-6210 or the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children at 1-800-843-5678. [1]
