Circumstance: Brianna Maitland was last seen during the late evening hours of March 19, 2004, as she was completing her shift at a restaurant in Montgomery, Vermont. She left the restaurant in a green 1985 Oldsmobile 88, which was later located abandoned, backed into a building, approximately one mile from the restaurant. A tip came in which someone felt they saw Brianna in a casino and a surveillance tape was pulled. Brianna’s family say that they are unable to tell for sure if that is indeed Brianna in the photo but there is obviously a very strong resemblance. (photo below)Security cameras barely captured the woman on tape. She and the man sitting next to her are wearing matching T-shirts with an unusual logo on the front. Brianna was curious about the world beyond the Vermont hills. Despite that, her parents don’t think she ran away. Police found her contact lenses, and migraine headache medicine in the car, along with two paychecks, totaling less than $150 — money that would have been crucial to a teenager living on her own. Police and her family are waiting for someone to come forward and positively identify the woman in the casino to help clear up that mystery.
