#20: Ylenia Carrisi
Year of disappearance: 1994
Year of discovery: never found
Ylenia Carrisi, daughter of renowned Italian actors and Italy’s equivalent of Vanna White, vanished in 1994 during a backpacking trip in Central America, last seen near New Orleans. Her fate remains unknown despite a sighting of her allegedly entering the Mississippi River.

Two decades after Ylenia Carrisi’s disappearance, a security guard’s claim of seeing her enter the Mississippi River remains unverified. Despite this, Carrisi’s mother and the detective she hired steadfastly believe that Ylenia is still alive, keeping hope amidst uncertainty.
