Further Details
- Notes
- Reachelle is believed to have been kidnapped by her aunt and legal guardian's roommate Leigh Cowen (male, brown hair, brown eyes, trimmed beard & mustache, heavy-set). He lived in the home and was close to Reachelle, often calling himself her father. He claimed he sent Reachelle to stay with his mother on May 16, but Reachelle did not come home. On May 22, Leigh stole the aunt's 1995 Ford Van (Teal w/ ND license plate: HAY 548) and vanished. The car and Leigh's body were located the next day in the Upper Souris National Wildlife Refuge. Reachelle has never been located.
