She was a supervisor for Riverside Community Hospital's emergency room registration. She was known for being punctual, responsible, and reliable. When she didn't show up for work, a friend/former co-worker reported her missing.
Larkin was five months' pregnant at the time of her disappearance. She had an on-and-off dating relationship with Derrick Latimer, a man who lived at the same condominium complex she lived at. Latimer was the father of her unborn child. He has been a person of interest since early in the investigation. He was a registered sex offender convicted in 1993 of rape by force or fear.
