Loukthayoth 'Luke' Phiangdae

Episode 97 Loukthayoth 'Luke' Phiangdae

On February 6th, 1996, 11 year old Loukthayoth Phiangdae, who went by Luke, vanished from his home in Raymond, Washington. He was apparently upset after being yelled at by his father for roughhousing with his brother, and he headed into his bedroom locking the door behind him. After several minutes, his family went to check on Luke and found his door locked. After forcing their way in, they found out that Luke was gone. It seemed like he had left through his window, and to this date, he has never been found despite extensive searches, and FBI involvement. Although there were possible sightings of Luke, none were confirmed, and it's not clear if he ran away, or was abducted. Over the years, suspicion fell on Luke's father, and some theorize that Luke drowned. In the end, there is not enough clues to look in any direction to figure out what happened to the 11 year old.

Luke's case was largely forgotten over the years, and next to nothing about Luke was posted online until a June, 2024 Centralia Chronicle article by Eric Trent who is our guest in this episode. Eric discusses with us the clues and the theories in this case.

When Luke vanished, he was described as an Asian male with Black hair and Brown eyes. He stood 4ft5, and weighed 65 pounds. He has a birthmark on his right buttock. Luke's case is on file with NAMUS. If you have information about Luke's case, please call Raymond police at (360) 942-4120.
