The Mysterious Case Of Amy Lynn Bradley Who Vanished From A Cruise Ship
YouTubeAmy Lynn Bradley and her brother Brad shortly before her disappearance.
In the early morning of March 24, 1998, Amy Lynn Bradley was lounging peacefully on the balcony of her cruise ship’s cabin. Her father had woken up between 5:15 a.m. and 5:30 a.m. and noticed her, but decided to let her sleep a little longer. She had been out late the night before, dancing in the ship’s nightclub until the early hours of the morning.
When he came back at 6 a.m. to check on her, she was gone. In half an hour, Amy Lynn Bradley had managed to disappear, never to be heard from again.
Once docked, the ship was thoroughly inspected, though the Bradley family pointed out that many passengers had already left the ship before the search was finished. It was unlikely Bradley would have gone overboard without a trace.
Though the initial investigation led nowhere, several tourists and visitors to Curacao have claimed to have seen Amy Lynn Bradley over the years.

In August of 1998, five months after she went missing, two Canadian tourists spotted a woman who matched Amy’s description on a beach.
In 1999, a member of the Navy visited a brothel in Barbados and claimed to have run into Amy, or at least a woman claiming to be her. The sailor claimed that the woman told him her name was Amy Bradley and begged him for help, saying she was not allowed to leave the brothel.
Six years later, a woman claimed to have seen Bradley in a department store restroom in Barbados.
Today, the investigation into Amy Lynn Bradley’s disappearance is ongoing, though no new leads have popped up. The FBI and the Bradley family have both offered sizeable rewards for information on her whereabouts, though it seems for now that her disappearance remains a mystery.
