Malai Larsen was an Alaskan Native, age 25, who lived in Palmer, Alaska, and vanished in the summer of 1981 amid a series of disappearances along the Knik River corridor. No grave existed for years and family listings recorded her as gone by the summer of 1981.

Human remains recovered April 24, 1984, near the Old Knik Bridge parking area north of Anchorage were later connected to Malai Larsen. Her recovery site corresponds to locations marked on a hand-drawn map tied to Robert Hansen, who was arrested October 27, 1983; investigators linked him to multiple abductions and murders around Anchorage. Larsen appears on lists of women authorities believe Hansen abducted and murdered during his spree.

If anyone knew Malai Larsen, her movements in Palmer, or remembers the Knik River area in 1981, please share what can help clarify her final months.
