Leigh Occhi was a 13-year-old girl from Tupelo, Mississippi, who disappeared on the morning of August 27, 1992, during the chaos of Hurricane Andrew. She was last seen by her mother, Vickie Felton, at about 7:35 a.m. before Vickie left for work; Leigh was expected at a school open house later that day and her grandmother was to pick her up. When Vickie called about an hour later Leigh did not answer. Returning home, Vickie found the house unlocked, the garage door open, and no sign of Leigh.

Bloodstains were discovered in multiple areas of the house and Leigh’s nightgown was found bloodied in her room. Some of her items, including glasses and clothing, were missing. Weeks later her glasses were mailed back to the house from a nearby town, a development police say appeared intended to mislead the investigation. Several people, including family members and acquaintances, have been investigated but no one has been charged and the case remains unsolved. Authorities continue to treat the disappearance as an active investigation.

If anyone knew Leigh, lived in Tupelo in 1992, or has information about that day, please share what might help move this case forward?
