Victoria Jane Owczynsky: Missing Since August 26, 1990
There are some stories that begin in the light of a sunny Sunday morning, but end in the deepest shadows—where questions multiply like whispers in the dark. The disappearance of 17-year-old Victoria Jane Owczynsky is one of those stories. What started as a regular day in the late summer of 1990 quickly turned into a nightmare for her family and friends, and more than three decades later, the mystery of what happened to her remains unsolved. On August 26, 1990, Vicky—lively, adventurous, and just on the cusp of her senior year at Edison High School—woke up in her friend's bustling home in northeast Minneapolis. She had only moved in about a month earlier, after leaving her mother’s house, but she was still close by, just four blocks from her family. The morning seemed ordinary enough: calls to her mother and friends, plans to meet up at a nearby park around noon. But by 1:00 pm, Vicky was gone—gone without a trace, leaving behind only the lingering questions and suspicions that have haunted everyone who knew her.
