On October 23, 1996, 30-year-old Lucie Bouchard was last seen in Montréal after dropping her sister Hélène off at the corner of Saint-Michel and Crémazie Est boulevards. Lucie had spent the evening at her brother Yves’ home and was driving a mauve 1994 Honda Civic, license plate GZB-707, expected to return to her home in Brossard but never arrived.
Witnesses described Lucie that night as confused and impatient. She was petite, about 5 feet 3 inches and 136 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes, and likely wearing blue jeans, a dark wool sweater, and a beige or cream-colored coat. She had epilepsy, took medication, and had reportedly had a seizure the day before she disappeared; her family said she could have memory lapses and sometimes experienced several seizures a month.
Police searched the St. Michel area, checked hospitals and bank activity, and contacted family, but neither Lucie nor her vehicle was found. There are no confirmed leads that explain whether a medical event, accident, or foul play occurred. Does anyone have information about Lucie, her mauve Honda Civic, or her movements that night?
