Police and Family Plea for Help

“There’s no evidence Maureen has been harmed, but the longer she stays missing and off the grid, the more worried her loved ones become. Since the report came in, we’ve spoken to people who know Maureen, tracked her phone, and checked known addresses. So far, no luck.” “If you have any information, we need you to come forward now.”

Heartbroken mother Jane added:

“It’s unbearable not having Maureen with us, especially at Christmas. She’s deeply loved and a huge part of our lives. Please, if you know where she is, let us know. Maureen – please come home.”
