$200,000 reward offered as vigil marks one year since Emily Pike’s death

A $200,000 reward is being offered for information leading to an arrest in the murder of Emily Pike, as family and community members marked one year since she went missing from a group home in Mesa, Arizona, according to FOX 10 Phoenix. Pike, 14, disappeared in January 2025. Her remains were found weeks later outside of Globe on Valentine’s Day. No suspects have been identified.

Family and friends held a candlelight vigil Sunday at the corner of Mesa Drive and McKellips Road, where Pike was last seen alive. Participants lit candles and placed flowers to honor Pike and keep attention on the unsolved case. Pike’s relative Kristopher Dosela said the family believes continued public attention is critical to resolving the case. Anyone with information is encouraged to contact the Bureau of Indian Affairs.
