The day before her disappearance, Lisa moved back home in Owen Sound. She was 5 months pregnant. Lisa was last seen leaving a house party in Woodford, Ontario. Although she arrived at the party with a girlfriend and male acquaintance, her girlfriend stayed behind when Lisa left. The male acquaintance left with Lisa. According to his statement, he drove Lisa back to her car and she left for home. Two days after her disappearance, Lisa’s green 1976 Plymouth Fury was found on a blind road running through a farmer’s property. The car had been stuck in the mud and there were indications that attempts were made to dislodge the car.
