- Details of Disappearance:
- On July 17, 2011, Valibayova disappeared from Quincy, Massachusetts. She was last seen near her apartment after getting off a train. Her apartment was found messy, with her laptop, phones, and other belongings missing, but her important papers were left behind. Her boyfriend reported her missing two days later. Her purse, containing her phones and ID, was found in a different area of Boston.
Three weeks later, police found a lot of Valibayova’s blood in her apartment, suggesting she was murdered. The main suspect is John Castonguay, a handyman with a history of sexual assault and kidnapping. He had access to all the apartments, was at her building the day she disappeared, knew she was alone, and admitted to cleaning her apartment afterward, despite claiming he didn’t know her. While he’s the prime suspect, he was never charged with her murder, though he did serve time for a probation violation.
Since her disappearance, Valibayova hasn’t used her accounts or contacted family and friends. She had plans to move to a new apartment soon. Police believe foul play was involved, but the case remains unsolved.
