On February 22, 2017, the lifeless body of Nhu Thuan Ly was discovered in a parking structure of a casino in Highland, California. Lying alongside her was her husband, Thanh Chi Lang. Both individuals were last known to be residents of San Gabriel, California. This somber discovery has since become a perplexing unclaimed person case, filed under NamUs ID UCP3175 for Nhu Thuan Ly and #3176 for Thanh Chi Lang. Despite efforts to trace family or close relations, the authorities have so far faced non-cooperation, leaving this case unresolved.
Both Nhu Thuan Ly and her husband were reportedly Cantonese speakers, a detail that could potentially aid in the outreach to communities or family members who might recognize or have connections to the couple. Despite this, attempts to gather information or elicit a response from possible family members have been fruitless. It appears that the couple, once dwelling in San Gabriel, have left behind no one willing or able to claim them, complicating the pursuit for closure in this unfortunate circumstance.
The case is currently under the jurisdiction of the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department, Coroner Division. They are actively seeking any information that could help identify next of kin or anyone willing to come forward on behalf of Nhu Thuan Ly and Thanh Chi Lang. For anyone who might have relevant information or can offer assistance, the department can be contacted at their South Lena Road address, or by phone at 909-387-2978. More details and updates on the case are available through their website. This case remains open, reflecting both the challenges and the necessity of connecting unclaimed individuals with those who knew them, ensuring they do not remain merely as case numbers in official records.
