Tori Jean Grace Bess, a 36-year-old woman from Eveleth, Minnesota, was last seen on February 21, 2013. Leading up to her disappearance, Bess had been staying with someone in Eveleth but left abruptly without notifying anyone. A few days later, the front door of the residence where she had been staying was found open, and her belongings were missing. Authorities are concerned for her well-being, as Bess had a history of medical issues and did not take any personal items with her.
Bess had expressed a desire to move to a warmer climate before she vanished. Known to lead a transient lifestyle, she had previously lived in several states, including California, Oregon, and Arizona. This transient nature and her desire to relocate initially led to speculation that she may have left voluntarily, but the circumstances surrounding her departure have raised concerns about potential foul play. Bess has not been heard from since, and the case remains unsolved.
The Eveleth Police Department continues to investigate her disappearance and urges anyone with information to come forward. Despite multiple efforts, very little is known about her movements after she left the residence, and there have been no significant leads in the case since. Her family and investigators still hope for answers regarding her mysterious disappearance.Last Seen: Feb 21, 2013
