ircumstances of Disappearance
Blee was last seen at a dance at the Pavilion in Craig, Colorado during the evening of November 21, 1979.
After the dance, she went to a party at Shadow Mountain mobile home park with a male friend. When she failed to return home by the following morning, her parents reported Blee as missing.
The friend later told authorities that Blee informed him she had a ride home with an unidentified person at 1:30 AM - 2:00 AM.
Attendees reported alcohol and drug use at the party. The friend stated that he never saw Blee again.
That's the last confirmed sighting of Marie. Some witnesses told authorities they had seen her at a Craig convenience store. But due to conflicting accounts from partygoers, Marie's movements later on that night are uncertain.
At first, authorities suspected that Marie was a runaway. But her parents insisted that running away didn't fit Marie's personality.
The friend was arrested and given a suspended sentence for attempted extortion one week after Blee vanished. He admitted that he made a phone call to her parents, in which he demanded $5000 in ransom for their daughter's return. He maintains that he is innocent of any involvement in Blee's case.
In 1999, officers from the Moffat and Routt County Sheriff Department, the Craig and Hayden Police Departments, and the FBI formed a task force with the goal of finding Marie Blee.
Since then, at least two suspects connected with the case have been arrested and the task force searched three sites near Hayden for signs of Marie. But the case remains open. Foul play is suspected.
