Jamie Harper was 20 when she was last seen in Rantoul, Illinois, in the early hours of March 10, 2007. She had traveled from her mother’s home in Paxton the night before to a party in the 1300 block of Laurel Drive and was seen at the gathering at about 4:30 a.m. Jamie had arranged to stay at a friend’s house but never arrived and did not return home.

At the time she vanished Jamie was wearing a white jacket, blue jeans, sandals, and carrying a small black bag. She has a tribal lower back tattoo, pierced ears, and a left nostril piercing. She left behind all personal belongings, including daily medication she needs for epilepsy, which made the delay in reporting her disappearance—her mother filed the missing-person report a week later—particularly concerning.

Investigators identified a 30-year-old man from Rantoul who was at the party as a person of interest; he was seen leaving with Jamie and returning alone about an hour and a half later, and was also tied as a person of interest in a 1997 disappearance of Heather Zimmerman. An anonymous tip led police to search gravel pits southeast of Paxton known as Dogtown, but no evidence was found. No arrests have been announced and Jamie’s whereabouts remain unknown.

Did anyone attend the Laurel Drive gathering who can add details about Jamie’s movements that night?
