Tazlina /tæzˈliːnə/ (Tezdlen Na’[2] in Ahtna Athabascan) is a census-designated place (CDP) in the Copper River Census Area, Alaska, United States.

In 1990, it lost that designation and was reclassified as an unincorporated Alaskan Native Village Statistical Area (ANVSA).

On August 22, 1991, 11-year-old Tazlina resident Mandy Lemaire was reported missing by her parents, triggering a massive search by law enforcement and townspeople.

[7] Ten days later, a volunteer searcher found Lemaire's body in a wooded area.

[7] Police and forensic investigators found considerable trace evidence in Smithart's truck that suggested Mandy's presence in the vehicle,[7] and learned from Smithart's eldest daughter that he had raped her and her sisters when they were Lemaire's age.

[10] All charges were automatically dismissed in 2000, after Smithart died of lung cancer in prison, awaiting a retrial.

[8] Tazlina and the Lemaire murder were featured on the true-crime television series Forensic Files, in the season 8 episode "Sphere of Influence".
