"Cindy" Hyun Jong Song
She was dressed as a playboy bunny and partying with friends at Player's Nite Club in the 100 block of west College Avenue.
Around 2 a.m. they went to play video games at another friend's house.
At 4 a.m., she was dropped off at her home in State College Park Apartments in the 300 block of west Clinton Avenue and was never seen again.
She had been drinking that evening and was mildly intoxicated when taken to her apartment.
Her friends reported her as a missing person when she failed to contact anyone by November 4.
Police found her costume eyelashes and her cellphone in her apartment.
Her keys and her purse, containing her credit cards and driver's license, were the only items missing.
The door to her apartment was locked from the outside.
She had broken up with her boyfriend months before her disappearance.
Authorities received a tip from a woman in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania shortly after she vanished.
The witness claimed that she saw a woman matching Cindy's description inside a vehicle with an unidentified male in the city's Chinatown district.
The witness said that the woman called for help, but the man interrupted her and told the witness to leave.
Authorities are continuing to attempt to identify the man allegedly seen by the woman.
He is described as having an olive or light brown complexion with medium-length hair.
Investigators stated that the man is not a suspect in Song's case, but they would like to question him.
Another possible suspect was bank robber Hugo Marcus Selenski.
He was arrested and several sets of human remains, believed to be from between five and twelve people, were found in his backyard. None of the remains were from Cindy.
Selenski told police that he and another man, Michael Jason Kerkowski Jr., saw her on the night of her disappearance, mistook her for a prostitute, and kidnapped her and kept her imprisoned in a walk-in safe in his home until she died.

He says they then buried Cindy's body in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania.
Kerkowski could not confirm or deny Selenski's account because he was one of the people buried in Selenski's backyard.

Selenski said he killed Kerkowski after learning that he had kept Song's bunny ears as a souvenir of the crime.
One of Selenski's friends, told police that Selenski had bragged about the murder to him.
Investigators have been unable to prove Selenski's involvement in Cindy's disappearance, but they have not ruled him out as a suspect either.
