The person at the center of this case
Nancy Kareen Moyer
Justice for Nancy Kareen Moyer — the trail went cold in 2009, but the truth hasn't.
Start here
Why was the front door ajar when the house was isolated across from a railway yard? Was there evidence of forced entry?
What was the significance of the glass of red wine on the coffee table—was Nancy interrupted during an activity, or does this indicate a visitor?
The two-day gap between her last sighting (March 6 evening) and discovery of her absence (March 8 afternoon) is critical—what happened during those 36+ hours?
Nancy Kareen Moyer, a 36-year-old financial analyst for the State of Washington, disappeared on March 6, 2009, after stopping at a grocery store in Tenino, WA. She was found missing two days later when her ex-husband returned their daughters to her home, discovering the front door ajar, lights and television on, and a glass of red wine on the coffee table—but Nancy gone. Despite extensive searches and ongoing efforts by her dedicated co-workers, no trace of her has been found, and authorities suspect possible foul play.
