Tammy Lynn Belanger (February 24, 1976 – disappeared November 13, 1984) is an American child who vanished while walking to school in Exeter, New Hampshire in November 1984. Police believe she was abducted. On the morning of her disappearance, Belanger was seen by a neighbor crossing the street on her way to school. She did not arrive at school, and has not been seen since. The one suspect in the case, who had been convicted of sexual assault of a minor in 1979, was later convicted of burglary and indecent exposure in Florida in 1992, and died in 2012. Timeline Disappearance On the morning of Tuesday, November 13, 1984, Belanger left her home on River Street in Exeter, New Hampshire, to walk to the elementary school on Lincoln Street where she was in the third grade. A neighbor saw her cross Court Street at approximately 8 a.m. It was about to the school, which Belanger had walked since she was in the first grade. When Belanger had not returned home by 3:30 p.m., her mother called the school, only to find out that Belanger had not been in class, and called police. At the time, the school did not verify students' absences by proactively calling parents. In the following days, police and volunteers searched on foot and via helicopter and boat. The FBI and State Police helped to investigate leads. A nearby flooded quarry was searched by divers. Nothing of significance was discovered, and by November 20, the Exeter police chief said he had little hope of finding Belanger alive. Suspect In late December, WCVB-TV in Boston identified Victor Wonyetye (pronounced wuh-NET-ee), then 41 years old, as a suspect in Belanger's disappearance. Wonyetye had been living during November in a motel in nearby Rye, New Hampshire, and was jailed on a parole violation earlier in December. Wonyetye had been convicted in 1979 of felonious sexual assault of a female minor, his thirteen-year-old stepdaughter, and served four years in prison before being paroled in July 1983. Wonyetye's parole was revoked by the New Hampshire Parole Board on December 28, 1984, as he had left the state without informing his parole officer and had been convicted of a misdemeanor in Florida earlier in the year. At the time Wonyetye was first named in connection with Belanger's disappearance, he was also a person of interest in the disappearance of Marjorie "Christy" Luna, who
