Linda Vongprachanh Missing Person Case: What Happened After She Vanished from Anchorage in 2022?

Linda Vongprachanh disappeared from Anchorage, Alaska, on May 1, 2022, after reportedly walking away from a meeting at St. Michael’s Church. Years later, her disappearance remains publicly documented as a missing-person case, but an unusual subsequent development occurred in 2025 when Anchorage Police separately announced they were trying to locate her in connection with an outstanding probation-violation warrant.


Very Brief Case Summary

Last Seen: May 1, 2022
Location: St. Michael’s Church, Anchorage, Alaska
Status: Publicly listed as missing

Linda reportedly attended a meeting at St. Michael’s Church in Anchorage and walked away from the meeting. Available public case records do not document a confirmed sighting or explanation for where she went afterward. Her NamUs case is MP101240.

Main circumstances:

  • Linda was last known to be at St. Michael’s Church in Anchorage on May 1, 2022.
  • She reportedly walked away from a meeting there.
  • Her subsequent whereabouts were not publicly established in the missing-person records reviewed.
  • Anchorage Police later issued a separate warrant-locate notice for Linda in May 2025.
  • Her NamUs missing-person profile remains publicly accessible.

Linda Vongprachanh Disappears in Anchorage

The known circumstances surrounding Linda Vongprachanh’s disappearance are unusually limited. Public missing-person databases state that she was in Anchorage on May 1, 2022, when she attended a meeting at St. Michael’s Church. At some point, Linda reportedly walked away from that meeting.

There is little publicly released information explaining why she left, whether anyone saw which direction she traveled, whether she entered a vehicle, or where she intended to go. Publicly available records also do not provide a detailed account of her communications or activities immediately after leaving the church.


Description of Linda Vongprachanh

Case records describe Linda as an Asian woman with black hair and dark or black eyes. She is approximately 5 feet 4 inches tall and weighs approximately 180 pounds.

Case databases generally place Linda in her early 30s when she disappeared. Crime Solvers Central records her as 32 at the time of her disappearance, while the current NamUs search listing identifies the case as NamUs MP101240.


The Missing-Person Investigation

The Anchorage Police Department is identified as the primary investigating agency in public case records. Crime Solvers Central, citing the case information, lists an Anchorage Police agency case number of 220013833, with a report date of May 1, 2022.

Linda’s disappearance was also entered into the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System as NamUs MP101240. The federal NamUs profile remains publicly available and identifies Linda as a missing person from Anchorage.

Publicly released information about searches, interviews, possible witnesses, digital evidence, or specific investigative leads is scarce. That lack of public detail should not be interpreted to mean investigators performed no additional work; it means those investigative details have not been made available in the records reviewed for this article.


A Significant Development in 2025

The case took an unusual turn on May 14, 2025, when the Anchorage Police Department published a notice announcing that officers were searching for Linda because she had an outstanding warrant for a probation violation stemming from an original charge of Misconduct Involving a Controlled Substance 5.

The police notice used the same physical description associated with Linda’s missing-person records: approximately 5 feet 4 inches tall, 180 pounds, with black hair and black eyes. Anchorage Police assigned the warrant-locate notice APD Case 21-23534 and asked anyone with information concerning Linda’s whereabouts to contact police.

This development is important, but it should be interpreted carefully. The publication of a warrant-locate notice does not by itself establish that law enforcement had confirmed Linda was alive or had located her after May 1, 2022. The APD notice does not publicly explain what information caused authorities to issue the 2025 locate request or whether investigators had obtained a confirmed post-disappearance sighting.


Why the Two Public Records Matter

Linda now appears in two types of publicly accessible records: a missing-person record connected to her May 2022 disappearance and a later Anchorage Police warrant-locate announcement.

Those records are not necessarily contradictory. An outstanding warrant can remain associated with a person whose present location is unknown. What makes Linda’s case noteworthy is that the police department specifically renewed public efforts to locate her nearly three years after the last-seen date appearing in her missing-person case.

No public statement located during this review explains whether investigators believe the 2025 warrant development is connected in any way to the circumstances surrounding her disappearance.


Latest Publicly Available Information

As of August 19, 2026, Linda’s NamUs missing-person profile remains publicly accessible as MP101240. A current Crime Solvers Central case profile also continues to classify her case as missing and shows the record as updated on August 9, 2026.

The most recent substantive official law-enforcement announcement located during this review is Anchorage Police Department’s May 14, 2025 warrant-locate notice. The notice asks the public to provide information about Linda’s whereabouts and lists APD Case 21-23534.

The Anchorage Police Department’s public warrant and locate pages continue to display the Linda Vongprachanh notice. No corresponding public APD cancellation or “located” notice for Linda was found in the records reviewed. That does not rule out investigative developments that have not been released publicly.


What Remains Unknown

More than four years after Linda was last reported seen at St. Michael’s Church, fundamental questions remain unanswered publicly: what prompted her to leave the meeting, where she went after leaving, whether anyone communicated with her afterward, and whether the 2025 warrant-locate announcement resulted from new information about her whereabouts.

There is also no publicly documented explanation in the sources reviewed showing that Linda has been definitively located since her May 1, 2022 disappearance.

Anyone with credible information about Linda Vongprachanh’s whereabouts should provide it directly to the investigating authorities rather than attempting to independently confront or approach her. Anchorage Police specifically directs people with information to contact non-emergency Dispatch at 907-786-8900 or 3-1-1 in Anchorage.
