🛈 This isn't finished. This incomplete version of this page has been uploaded as a "placeholder".
There is more to this story, much of it available online with the lisamarieyoung.ca search page, or within Lisa's Wikipedia page, the 100's of media articles and dozens of privately-produced podcasts discussing Lisa's "disappearance".

In reality, Nanaimo RCMP have searched a total of 2 locations for Lisa.

  • The Biggs/Doumont area[1]
    • searched by RCMP on Sept 17, 2002 (between 9:30am and noon)[2]
    • Two months later Lisa's family re-searched the same area.[3]
  • Backyard of 827 Nanaimo Lakes Road
    1. Initial search on a day between Dec 1 - 15, 2002[4]
    2. Search with Ground Penetrating Radar and a police dog on Dec 16, 2002[4]
    3. Investigators later returned for an unpublicized third search (likely using a resistivity search method such as FPR)[5]
