Rayleigh Joeann LaTray was reported missing from Lander, Wyoming, after last being seen on January 30, 2024. She was 16 years old at the time. Publicly available missing-person information described her as a teenager with brown hair and brown eyes, approximately 5 feet 3 inches tall, and about 100 pounds; the NamUs-derived details supplied for the case list her height range as 5 feet 3 inches to 5 feet 5 inches and her weight range as 105 to 115 pounds.
Her case is associated with NamUs missing person case MP117132 and the Fremont County Sheriff’s Office.
According to County 10, Rayleigh’s disappearance was publicly shared after a request from her mother, Amanda, who asked for the information to be circulated so the public could help. The same report said Rayleigh was last seen wearing a black sweater and jacket with white pants. Public notices also indicated that she may have been in the Casper, Wyoming area, expanding concern beyond Lander and Fremont County.
The Wyoming Division of Criminal Investigation explains that its missing persons page contains information obtained from NCIC entries created by entering law enforcement agencies, and that people listed there were reported missing in Wyoming to a Wyoming law enforcement agency. DCI also states that any person is removed from that public page when the entering agency removes the person from NCIC. Because the attached case data does not list Rayleigh’s case resolution status as Alive or Deceased, and because the available public sources located do not clearly state that she has been found, the case should be treated as unresolved based on the information available here.
The investigating agency listed in the provided case data is the Fremont County Sheriff’s Office, with the agency address in Riverton, Wyoming, and case number C24-00395. County 10’s public report directed anyone with information about Rayleigh’s whereabouts to contact the Fremont County Sheriff’s Office or the Wyoming Department of Criminal Investigation.
Rayleigh’s case is especially concerning because she was a minor when she disappeared, and the public details available are limited. There are no detailed circumstances publicly provided beyond her last known date and location, her possible connection to the Casper area, her physical description, and the clothing information reported early in the case. In cases like this, even small pieces of information can matter, and the continued sharing of accurate, compassionate information helps keep attention on Rayleigh as a person, not just a case number.Last Seen: Jan 30, 2024
