Christina Marie Plante was reported missing from Star Valley, Arizona, on May 16, 1994, when she was 13. She was last seen leaving home on foot to walk to a nearby stable to tend her horse, wearing a white t-shirt, multicolored shorts, and black tennis shoes. The case was classified as endangered and under suspicious circumstances and prompted extensive ground searches, interviews, and flyer distribution, but no significant leads developed and the case went cold.

Christina’s information was entered into national missing children databases, and the Gila County Sheriff’s Office periodically reviewed the file. A dedicated Cold Case Unit was later created by the sheriff’s office to re-examine long-standing cases. Very few details about her ultimate whereabouts or what happened have been released publicly; reports say she has been located and her identity confirmed, and that she told investigators she ran away with an undisclosed family member, but she has not cooperated with the investigation into her disappearance. Does anyone have memories of Christina in Star Valley or information about the stable she was walking to?
