William is missing with his wife, Lorraine, from Essex, Vermont. They were last seen by their respective co-workers when they left work at 5:00 p.m. on June 8, 2011. Both of them apparently did arrive at their home on Colbert Street, but neither of them showed up for work the next day, which is uncharacteristic of them. They have never been heard from again. When police went to their residence on Colbert Street, they discovered a window in an interior door connecting the house to the garage was newly broken. The Curriers' dark green Saturn sedan with the Vermont license plate number ABF-818 was missing, as was a handgun they'd recently purchased. A photo of the sedan is posted below this case summary.

Two days after the Curriers went missing, their car was found abandoned at a parking lot in the 200 block of Pearl Street in Essex Junction, near a dumpster between two apartment buildings. This is less than a mile from William and Lorraine's home, and a short walk from the bus stop. Investigators released a sketch of an unidentified man whom a witness may have seen driving the car; the drawing is posted below this case summary. In July 2011, however, authorities said they were no longer looking using the sketch because they doubted the witness's credibility regarding the man's description. They still think the witness saw the Curriers' car, however.

Two months before she vanished, Lorraine told a friend she was scared of a male acquaintance and that he was stalking her. She didn't identify the alleged stalker and it's unclear whether he had anything to do with her later disappearance.

William worked an animal care technician for the University of Vermont at the time of his disappearance, and Lorraine worked in the financial services department at Fletcher Allen Health Care, the university's health care center. They have siblings living in Vermont, but no children. The Curriers haven't used their cellular phones or bank accounts since they went missing, and all their medication was left behind at home. Investigators suspect foul play was involved. Their cases remain unsolved.
