Pamela Jayne Holopainen, a 22-year-old Inuk mother, vanished from Timmins, Ontario after a night out on December 13–14, 2003. She and her common-law spouse, Chris Manchester, attended a house party where an argument between them was witnessed in the early hours of December 14. Witnesses saw Holopainen leave the party with Manchester following; that was the last confirmed sighting. She was not reported missing until December 31, 2003, and missed Christmas with her two young sons.

Investigators later found blood inside her apartment, on walls, floor and door. More than 100 witness interviews were conducted during the first year, and the following fall a search of the Deloro Landfill Site using excavators and cadaver dogs produced no results. Police and family believe she is deceased and suspect foul play. The South Porcupine division of the Ontario Provincial Police continues to investigate; a $50,000 reward is being offered for information leading to an arrest and conviction.

Did anyone in the Timmins area have contact with Pamela or her family around December 13–31, 2003, or recall details from that party?
