"It started out a normal school day," says Columbia Police Department Spokesperson Jessie Hayden.

"Kristina got up that morning, and she got ready for school and she left to walk the short distance from her home to Jeff Jr. High School where she was attending."

But by 10 o'clock that night Kristina hadn't come home. And school officials later told Columbia Police she never came to school that morning.

Details of Disappearance
Kristina said goodbye to her sister and a friend, then departed from her family's residence to walk to school during the morning hours of October 19, 1994 in Columbia, Missouri.

A witness observed a four-door vehicle stop along Kristina's street and watched as Kristina spoke to the male driver. Kristina and the man talked for a few moments, then she entered the car and they drove away. She never arrived for her classes at Jefferson Junior High School and has not been seen again.

Kristina had run away from home once before after she got in a fight with her mother. She and her mother weren't arguing when she missing in October 1994, however. She may have been accompanied by a 22-year-old male when she disappeared in 1994. Her case was originally classified as a runaway, but authorities aren't sure whether she left of her own accord and she is now listed as an endangered missing child. Her disappearance remains unsolved.
 
From his early 20s through his early 40s, a period that spanned 1976 to 1994, Lawrence Gene Timmons was linked to no less than five separate violent crimes in Missouri, despite spending seven of those years in prison or on parole.

He was charged in the kidnapping and assault of a young boy, the home invasion robbery of a female college student, and the gunpoint rape of a woman, and was questioned but never arrested in the homicides of his first wife and Smith.

Former Perinton town employee charged in cold case murder. Police suspect he may have killed others.
 
I have read this case so many times and wonder why the police were so quick to say she was with a “male companion.” That only happens when the police know who the child is with. In this case, they still have no idea who the man in the car even is.

I know Kristina ran away before but it sounds like she only did it once and that it wasn’t for long either.

The fact that she was listed as a runaway after she was seen getting into an unidentified vehicle driven by an unidentified male is baffling and ridiculous.

This should’ve been considered an abduction from the start, it’s been nearly 30 years and we still don’t know where Kristina is. I believe she was abducted and probably died not long after. I don’t see this case ending with her being found alive.
