Kristen Modafferi flew from her home in Charlotte, North Carolina to San Francisco, California on her 18th birthday. A Park Scholar who had just completed her freshman year at North Carolina State University, Kristen had decided to attend a summer photography course at the University of California at Berkeley. By the time she arrived in San Francisco, she had already found a room to rent at a home in Oakland with four other roommates, and within days she had already landed not one, but two jobs at two different coffee shops in the city.
After clocking out of work at 3pm on June 23rd, 1997, Kristen was spotted wandering around the second floor of the mall where she worked, allegedly accompanied by a strange woman. After 3:45pm on that day, Kristen vanished. Her summer photography course was set to begin the next day, June 24th.. but Kristen never showed up. Twenty four years later, and still no arrests have ever been made in connection with her disappearance.
