On the evening of November 11, 2000, 23-year-old Hope Renee Curry was at her brother's home on Bancroft Drive in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Around 9:30 p.m., after receiving a page, she told her brother she was walking to a nearby Texaco station at Rosemont and Holland Roads to use a payphone. She intended to call a friend and invite them over for pizza. Hope left her brother's residence and was never seen or heard from again. At the time of her disappearance, Hope was described as a white female with brown hair and brown eyes, standing between 5'6" and 5'7" tall. She was wearing a green sweater with a white and black argyle pattern across the chest, black jeans, and blue and white platform sneakers. She also wore several pieces of jewelry, including a gold necklace with a "#1 MOM" pendant, a silver ring with a pink stone, and a silver band on her pinky finger. Hope was a young mother to a nine-month-old daughter who was in foster care at the time. Friends and family say she was focused on regaining custody of her child and believe it is uncharacteristic of her to have left without a word. Hope had attended Green Run High School and had faced some personal challenges as a teenager. She had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and also experienced occasional seizures, for which she required medication that she did not have with her when she vanished. Hope also had grayish spots on the iris of her right eye, in which she was eighty percent blind, and scars on her left eyelid. It has been reported that she was a victim of mental and physical abuse prior to her disappearance. The Virginia Beach Police Department investigated her disappearance, but from the beginning, the case had very little information to go on, with no crime scene or physical evidence. A tip was received in 2015 and was aggressively worked by detectives, but it did not lead to any new information about Hope's whereabouts. Her friends and family have not given up hope, with one of her best friends placing a banner at the location where she was last seen, two decades after she vanished. The case remains an unsolved and baffling mystery for law enforcement and all who knew her. Hope's loved ones continue to seek answers, holding onto the hope that they will one day find out what happened to her.
