Today I am discussing the case of 17-year-old Maggie Long from Bailey, Colorado. On December 1st, 2017, Maggie left her high school to change her clothes and grab some items for a concert she was helping with that night. But Maggie never returned. When Maggie’s family went to look for her at their home it was on fire with Maggie’s car still in the driveway.

After officials announced that no body was found in the home after extinguishing the fire, but there was also no official search for Maggie, the public was understandably confused and concerned. It would take months for officials to clear up these statements, over year to announce that Maggie was burned alive in her home that night and several years to announce that they believe Maggie was the victim of a hate crime.

Maggie Long was an Asian American female with brown eyes and black hair. The police are seeking information about three men believed to be connected to this crime. It’s believed they were driving a late 90s to 2000 light colored Chevy Astro van and a Ford pickup. Anyone with information is urged to call 1800 call FBI, you can also submit tips online at fbi.gov/tips.
