The story of the disappearance of 21-year-old Lisa Marie Young, from Nanaimo, British Columbia, is particularly terrifying because it’s one that I think a lot of us young women can imagine happening to us or someone we know.

Lisa was a bright, beautiful, independent Indigenous woman, with a family who loves and misses her every single day since she went missing in 2002. That warm summer night, Lisa had gone out to a club to celebrate a friend’s birthday. She was with a group that she trusted and had an amazing time that evening until after they left the club and decided to go to a house party.

A stranger in a red Jaguar approached the group and offered to drive them, which they agreed to. They arrived at the first party safely and the night continued until the early morning hours, until the man offered to take Lisa to get some food. But once he had Lisa alone, he didn’t take her for food.

He basically held her hostage, driving her around to wherever he wanted to go and refusing to take her home no matter how many times she asked. Lisa would not make it home - and has not been heard from since. Obviously, this stranger with the red Jaguar has been named by the police as a person of interest, but no charges have been laid. Most shockingly, Lisa has not been found and no one knows what happened to her.

***There is a $50,000 reward offered for information leading to her remains. ***
