Laurie Virginia Burgess, 33, was last seen on Christmas Eve 1991 in Warren, Pennsylvania. She was a mother to a three-year-old son and was last seen getting into her husband’s white Dodge Ram pickup truck; her husband and their young son were also in the vehicle. Laurie was wearing a green New York Jets t-shirt, a pink zip-up sweatshirt, blue denim jeans, her wedding ring and earrings. She is described as white, with long brown hair below her shoulders, hazel eyes, 5 feet 2 inches to 5 feet 3 inches tall and 115 to 120 pounds.

Authorities describe the circumstances as troubling and believe she may have been the victim of foul play. The case was not officially reported to the Pennsylvania State Police in Erie until December 23, 2020, nearly three decades after she was last seen. Troop E of the Pennsylvania State Police is the primary investigating agency; the case is listed in NamUs as MP157864. Few public details exist about events leading up to that final sighting in the pickup truck, and the delay in reporting is a notable aspect of the file.

Did anyone in Warren or the surrounding area see Laurie Burgess or that white Dodge Ram around December 24, 1991?
