Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP54395) and 13 other sources
Lutricia Ann Smith Thompson, a 19-year-old mother from Pascagoula, Mississippi, disappeared on September 1, 1988. She had recently given birth to a child on August 11 of that year and vanished just a few weeks later. Lutricia was last seen when she left home to meet some friends, but she never returned. She was described as 5'4" tall, weighing between 135 and 150 pounds, with dark brown hair, brown eyes, and scars on her left hand. At the time of her disappearance, she was wearing an orange shirt and navy blue pants.

Lutricia's case was not reported immediately after she went missing. It wasn't until 2018, during the investigation into notorious serial killer Samuel Little, that her family came forward, suspecting that she might have been one of his victims. Little, who confessed to 93 murders, was linked to numerous unsolved cases, though no direct connection to Lutricia's disappearance has been established. Unfortunately, very little investigative work was done in 1988 when she initially went missing, leaving her case unsolved for decades.

Despite renewed interest due to Little's confessions, Lutricia's disappearance remains a mystery. Her case is still open, and investigators continue to search for any leads that might provide answers. Her family continues to hope for closure after more than three decades without knowing her fate.
