The Suspicious Death of Christina Lunceford (Massachusetts)

In late July 2004, 20-year-old Christina Lunceford walked into her parents’ home beaming with excitement. She had just signed the lease on a new apartment with her boyfriend and was ready to begin a new chapter of her life. But only days later, Chrissy disappeared from that apartment, and the stories her family heard still don’t make sense to them more than 20 years later.

Chrissy’s name and face may have faded from public view over the last two decades, but never from her mother’s heart. Using nearly 250 pages of case file documents, we’re going to retrace Chrissy’s final days, the investigation that followed her disappearance in one state and discovery in another, and the questions that still hang in the air…Questions about what really happened to Chrissy, and who may hold the answers.

Anyone who may have information relating to Chrissy’s case can contact Massachusetts State Police assigned to the Middlesex District Attorney’s Office at (781) 897-6600. The Tyngsborough Police Department has a confidential tip line: (978) 649-7504, option 9.
