Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP105892)
Linda Fatima Ramos was 17 years old when she was last seen in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, on June 10, 2023. A Hispanic or Latino female, Linda was described as approximately 5 feet tall and weighing about 110 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. On the day she disappeared, she was reportedly wearing a black shirt, black pants, and black shoes. The known account of her final contact is painfully brief: Linda sent her mother a text message saying that she was leaving, and she was not seen again
afterward. Publicly available records do not explain where she intended to go, whether she planned to meet anyone, or what prompted her departure, leaving her family with an abrupt message and many unanswered questions. Her last known location was within Pigeon Forge in Sevier County, a heavily traveled East Tennessee community whose steady flow of residents, workers, and visitors may have complicated efforts to determine where she went next.
Linda’s disappearance was reported to the Pigeon Forge Police Department on June 10, 2023, and the department became the investigating agency under local case number 23061020355. Her information was later entered into the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System as case MP105892. NamUs continues to identify her date of last contact as June 10, 2023, and publicly accessible missing-person listings continue to carry her name, description, and Pigeon Forge disappearance information. These records provide no publicly disclosed account of confirmed sightings after she left, no identified vehicle associated with her disappearance, and no detailed explanation of her possible destination or subsequent movements. There is also no publicly stated indication that she was traveling with another person. The limited information means that even a recollection that once appeared insignificant—seeing a young woman dressed entirely in black, overhearing a conversation about travel, or noticing someone leaving the Pigeon Forge area—could potentially help investigators reconstruct Linda’s movements.
As time has passed, Linda has grown older than the teenager shown in the photograph distributed with her case, an important consideration for anyone who may encounter her or believe they recognize her. Her appearance may have changed, but the identifying characteristics recorded when she vanished remain central to the search: her small stature, black hair, brown eyes, Hispanic or Latino heritage, and the circumstances of her departure from Pigeon Forge. No distinctive physical features, personal belongings, transportation details, or additional circumstances have been made public, and the absence of those details should not be mistaken for a lack of concern or investigative significance. Missing-person cases involving young people can arise from many different circumstances, and the available record does not establish why Linda left, whether she departed voluntarily, or what happened afterward. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation maintains a statewide Missing Persons Clearinghouse to support local, state, and national efforts to locate missing individuals, while the Pigeon Forge Police Department remains the agency identified with Linda’s case. Anyone with reliable information should provide it directly to law enforcement rather than attempting an independent investigation. In overview, Linda Ramos was a 17-year-old girl who told her mother by text that she was leaving on June 10, 2023, disappeared from Pigeon Forge without a publicly documented trace, and remains the subject of a case defined by a loving family’s uncertainty, a sparse final message, and the enduring need for credible information about where she went and what became of her.Last Seen: Jun 10, 2023
