People that knew Barbara claimed that they saw her walking near the 16500 block of Bothell Way northwest, about half a mile from the disco, and they claimed they offered her a ride but she refused, and insisted on walking 5 miles to her home. She didn't make it home, and was never seen again. The lines of what happened that night are blurred by inaccuracies and confusion.

On February 6th, 1996, 11 year old Loukthayoth Phiangdae, who went by Luke, vanished from his home in Raymond, Washington. He was apparently upset after being yelled at by his father for roughhousing with his brother, and he headed into his bedroom locking the door behind him. After several minutes, his family went to check on Luke and found his door locked. After forcing their way in, they found out that Luke was gone. It seemed like he had left through his window, and to this date, he has never been found despite extensive searches, and FBI involvement. Although there were possible sightings of Luke, none were confirmed, and it's not clear if he ran away, or was abducted. Over the years, suspicion fell on Luke's father, and some theorize that Luke drowned. In the end, there is not enough clues to look in any direction to figure out what happened to the 11 year old.
