Summary

On the RCMP's official dossier for Lisa's case, the "missing since" date has been listed incorrectly since the beginning.

After this mistake was brought to the attention of investigators, it was not corrected. Instead, a second date was added, also incorrect.

Details Matter!
While individual issues may seem trivial on their own, together, they are demonstrative of the overall carelessness and apathy with which the investigation was handled.
→ See the overview of RCMP dossier inaccuracies.

Details

Reports and first-hand accounts are clear that Lisa was last seen on July 1st, 2002:

"He won't bring me back, I'm getting pissed off."[5][6][7]
"Come get me, they won't let me leave."[1][8][9][10][11][12][13]

Clipping from the RCMP Dossier for Lisa Marie Young (Archived Dec 2022)[14]
At 4:30am, Lisa texted Dallas, "Come get me, they won't let me leave." That was the last time anyone heard from Lisa.

🛈 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".


Incorrect date of disappearance

The dossier has always misreported the date on which Lisa was last seen:[15]

WRONG: "In the early morning hours of June 30, 2002, Lisa Young was seen for the last time…"
CORRECT: Lisa was seen and heard from for the last time on July 1, 2002.


Additional error added in 2022

In 2022, an additional date was added to the dossier — also incorrect:[14]

WRONG: "On the night of June 29, Lisa travelled to a local bar…"
CORRECT: Lisa arrived at The Jungle Cabaret on June 30, 2002 at 11:45pm.


Comparison to dates in re-enactment

The Crime Stoppers video re-enactment produced in 2009 about Lisa's disappearance — which was based on information provided by Nanaimo RCMP investigators — also contained incorrect/misleading details, but ironically, the dates were one of the few details reported accurately in the video.[16]

The dossier's dates remain uncorrected despite investigators' ability to update it at any time. They have, however, recently added further misinformation.[14]
