Frankie Joe Braddy was 25 when he vanished after a night out in Bellingham, Washington. On the evening of Friday, January 21, 1994, Frankie, his 22-year-old brother Timothy, and roommates 20-year-old Korina Rodriguez and 23-year-old Samantha Ham were last seen at a party. Reports say the group was intoxicated and mentioned plans to go rock climbing, but they never returned home.

Investigators found a car loaned to the Braddy brothers abandoned on Chuckanut Shore Road near a residence from which two 12-foot skiffs had been reported stolen. One of those skiffs later washed ashore at Teddy Bear Cove, and a jacket believed to belong to either Korina or Samantha was recovered in the water nearby. The Coast Guard and the Whatcom County Sheriff’s Department conducted extensive searches of the bay and nearby islands that turned up no further sign of the four.

Authorities were said to be 80 to 90 percent certain the group encountered trouble on the water, though some family members held out hope they might be stranded on an island. The investigation eventually stalled and the case remains unsolved. If anyone knew Frankie, his movements that night, or has information about the boats or Chuckanut Bay, please come forward.
