Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP1087) and 7 other sources
In the early hours of June 18, 1995, a young woman named Thylea Chisholm, on the eve of her twenty-first birthday, vanished from Chesterfield County, Virginia. She was a 20-year-old Caucasian female with brown hair and brown eyes. Thylea was last seen shortly after midnight in the area of the Strathmore Apartments, located in the 6100 block of Strathmore Road, just south of Chippenham Parkway. Reports from that time indicate she was on her way to a dumpster near the apartments when she disappeared. Since that night, there has been no contact with her, leaving her family and community with unanswered questions.

The circumstances surrounding Thylea's disappearance are unsettlingly sparse. Few details about the specific events leading up to the moment she was last seen have been made public, which has made the investigation challenging for law enforcement over the decades. It is known that Thylea had a history of huffing spray paint, a detail that has been noted in her case file. Her case is one of several unsolved disappearances of women from the same general area along the Jefferson Davis Highway corridor during the 1990s, prompting police to investigate possible connections between them, though no definitive links have been established.

Over the years, the investigation into Thylea Chisholm's disappearance has remained open, but progress has been limited. Her case has been reviewed alongside other local cold cases, including those of other missing women and the discovery of human remains in the area. Despite these efforts and occasional renewed looks at the evidence, her whereabouts remain unknown. The Chesterfield County Police Department continues to hold the case file, hoping for a breakthrough that might finally provide answers to what happened to the young woman who disappeared on the brink of her twenty-first birthday. The lack of closure has left a lingering sense of loss and mystery in the community.
