In the early morning hours of March 29, 1986, 19-year-old Londa Lynn Young was last seen in Sulphur, Louisiana. The report of her disappearance came from her live-in boyfriend, who stated that she left their residence on Evelyn Street around 3:00 a.m. following an argument. He told authorities he last saw her walking down the street. Londa, a native of Florida, was known to be a bit of a wanderer and had a history of traveling far from home. However, her disappearance was particularly concerning as she left behind her six-month-old infant daughter. This fact raised immediate red flags for those who knew her, as it was uncharacteristic for her to abandon her child. The infant daughter was later told that her mother had simply gone to the store for a loaf of bread and never returned. Londa Lynn Young was a distinctive young woman, standing between 5'9" and 6'1" and weighing between 100 and 150 pounds. She had brown hair and brown eyes. Two notable tattoos adorned her body: a rose on her left arm and a butterfly on her left ankle. She was also known by the nickname "Silver". Her case is being handled by the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff's Office, and despite the passage of time, it remains an active investigation. The circumstances surrounding her disappearance have always been murky, with very little physical evidence to point investigators in a specific direction. The initial account of her walking away after an argument left a wide range of possibilities, from her leaving of her own accord to meeting with foul play. Years passed with no sign of Londa and very few leads for investigators to follow. The case grew cold, a lingering mystery in the community. Then, in 2004, a significant tip emerged, suggesting that Londa had been murdered around the time she went missing. This information, though unverified, shifted the focus of the investigation towards the possibility of a homicide. Despite this development, her case remains unsolved. The lack of resolution has left her family, particularly her daughter, without answers for decades. The official classification of her case is that of an endangered missing person, a reflection of the uncertainty and concern that has surrounded her since that March morning in 1986.
