Christina Ann Battin was 14 when she disappeared from her home in Thousand Palms, California, on June 8, 2003. She was last seen the next day at the Red Roof Inn leaving with an unidentified man described as about 22 years old with a tattoo on his left arm; they left in a blue Ford Explorer. Authorities at first considered the possibility she had run away, but concerns grew that she may have suffered foul play given the circumstances of that final sighting. Christina may have been a potential witness in a child molestation case involving Douglas J.

Marino, who was arrested roughly a month after her disappearance, and investigators had hoped to locate her to support that matter. She is described as 5 feet 4 inches to 5 feet 6 inches tall, 100 to 110 pounds, with blonde hair and blue eyes, though she may have dyed her hair brown or red. Her whereabouts remain unknown and the case is open.

Does anyone have information about Christina, the man seen with her, or the blue Ford Explorer?
