Mary Denise Lands, 39, was last seen leaving her Marshall, Michigan, apartment on the night of March 12, 2004, after an argument with her live-in fiancé, Christopher Luke Pratt. She was reportedly seen between about 10:00 and 10:30 p.m. walking away from the 1200 block of Arms Street wearing dark blue scrub pants, a light blue scrub shirt with a SpongeBob or teddy bear print, a brown leather jacket and slip-on athletic shoes. She took a white mesh purse but left behind many usual items including her cell phone, keys, engagement ring and most clothing; her Dodge Durango was also left behind.

Search dogs tracked her scent to a nearby motel but found no further sign of her. Her bank accounts and credit cards showed no activity after her disappearance. Pratt was the last person to report seeing her and has been described as a person of interest; no charges have been filed. Mary was declared legally dead in April 2011, though no remains have been found and the investigation remains open.

Did anyone in Marshall around March 12, 2004, see Mary or notice anything unusual near the Arms Street apartments or the nearby motel?
