Additional Information :

Lisa was last seen near her residence at 1220 Merivale Road in Ottawa.  She was approaching a black sports car with two people inside.

At the time of her disappearance, Lisa was scheduled to testify against an ex-boyfriend who was charged with assaulting her.  Without her testimony, the charges were withdrawn.

The subsequent police investigation could not rule out that Lisa may have decided to run away.  However, her family believes that if this were true, it would be surprising for her to leave without eventually making contact.

Years later a former high school friend came forward to report seeing Lisa at an amusement park in North Carolina.  The sighting was never confirmed.
