Detailed Case Breakdown
Kaytlyn Nicole Moe: Wisconsin Woman Remains Missing Years After Disappearing in 2021
Kaytlyn Nicole Moe was 25 years old when she disappeared from Wilson, Wisconsin, in September 2021. More than five years later, her whereabouts remain unknown, and her case continues to be listed among Wisconsin’s missing-person cases.

Very Brief Case Summary
Last seen: September 14, 2021
Location: Wilson, St. Croix County, Wisconsin
Age when missing: 25
Current status: Missing
NamUs: MP108888
Main circumstances: Kaytlyn Moe was last seen leaving the Wilson area in a black GMC SUV with an unknown person. Her family has had no known contact with her since September 2021. Authorities have continued to seek information about her disappearance, and the Wisconsin Department of Justice still lists her as missing.
The Disappearance of Kaytlyn Moe
The circumstances publicly available about Kaytlyn’s disappearance are unusually limited. The Wisconsin Department of Justice lists September 14, 2021, as her missing date and Wilson, a village in St. Croix County, as the location from which she disappeared.
The central known detail is that Kaytlyn was last seen getting into a black GMC SUV with an unknown person. No publicly released description identifying the driver is included on the current Wisconsin DOJ missing-person page.
Kaytlyn was 25 when she vanished. She is described as a white woman with brown hair and brown eyes, approximately 5 feet 4 inches tall and about 130 to 150 pounds. She has multiple distinctive tattoos, including stars on the right side of her chest, the word “love” with birds on the left side of her chest, a cat design with an ECG-style trace on a forearm, an anime-style forearm tattoo, and the word “believe” on her hip. She may wear glasses and has reportedly used the nickname “Nikki.”
When Was Kaytlyn Moe Reported Missing?
Public sources leave an important gap between Kaytlyn’s disappearance and the wider public attention her case eventually received.
The Wisconsin DOJ currently records her missing date as September 14, 2021. In September 2023, approximately two years after she disappeared, the Wisconsin Crime Alert Network issued a missing endangered person alert. WEAU reported at the time that Kaytlyn had left her home in September 2021 and entered a black SUV driven by an unknown person, and that her family had not heard from her since.
The Charley Project provides additional context, reporting that her family initially believed she had left voluntarily and became concerned when she did not make contact. However, that site’s narrative gives September 24, 2021, as the date she was last seen entering the SUV, while the same page lists September 14 as her official “Missing Since” date. Because Wisconsin DOJ records September 14, that is the date used as the primary missing date here.
Renewed Attention in 2023
Kaytlyn’s case received renewed public attention in September 2023 when the Wisconsin Crime Alert Network issued its missing endangered person alert.
At that time, WEAU reported that authorities were asking anyone with information to contact an investigator with the St. Croix County Sheriff’s Office. The alert again emphasized the black SUV and the fact that Kaytlyn’s family had received no communication from her since she disappeared.
Public discussion of the case also increased online during this period. Some social-media discussions contain claims about Kaytlyn’s life before her disappearance, possible associates, and theories about what may have happened. Those comments are not established evidence and should not be treated as verified facts unless independently confirmed by investigators.
Latest Information on the Search for Kaytlyn Moe
As of the most recent publicly available information located for this article, Kaytlyn remains listed as missing.
The Wisconsin Department of Justice’s current missing-person database continues to list Kaytlyn Moe as missing from Wilson, with September 14, 2021, as her missing date. The state currently lists her age as 30.
More recently, an April 2026 Wisconsin missing-persons report based on NamUs information continued to include Kaytlyn among the state’s open missing-person cases. That report again stated that she was last seen entering a black SUV driven by an unknown person and added that she was listed as having no social-media activity since September 2021.
No credible public source located for this article reports that Kaytlyn has been found, that human remains have been identified as hers, or that an arrest has been made in connection with her disappearance.
There also does not appear to be a publicly announced determination that Kaytlyn was the victim of a homicide. Her official Wisconsin classification remains that of a missing adult. The limited amount of information released publicly means that many basic questions—including the identity of the SUV’s driver and what happened after Kaytlyn entered the vehicle—remain unanswered in publicly available records.
What Happened to Kaytlyn Nicole Moe?
The last publicly documented circumstances remain largely the same: a 25-year-old woman left in a black GMC SUV with an unidentified person in September 2021 and then apparently stopped communicating with the people in her life.
Years later, Kaytlyn remains missing.
Anyone who remembers seeing Kaytlyn around the time she disappeared, knows who may have been driving the black GMC SUV, communicated with her shortly before she vanished, or has other information relevant to her whereabouts should contact law enforcement rather than attempting to investigate individuals independently.
Even information that appeared insignificant at the time could potentially provide investigators with another piece of the timeline.
