OH-41 Year Old Susan Smith Missing

[Old Broad]

I couldn't find a thread on this case, if there already is one please delete this one.

Kaitlyn Smith talked to her mother, Susan, every day. So when she hadn't spoken with her for several days after their last phone conversation March 28, she became concerned and contacted police.

More than two months later, the 16-year-old still hasn't heard from her mother. No one has. And there's been no activity on Ms. Smith's bank account.

"She was trying so hard to get on her feet - she wasn't exactly on them," Miss Smith said. "But she was trying. I know she wouldn't take off."

Police don't think she did, either.

They're investigating the missing Washington Township woman's case as a homicide, even though they haven't found a body, Toledo police Sgt. Steve Forrester said.

Susan's daughter was the last known person to talk to her mother. Susan told her daughter that she was meeting a friend at a gas station and that he was going to fill up her vehicle with gas. I wonder if the gas tank was full when LE found the vehicle parked behind an apt complex? That would tell if she ever made it to the gas station or not. I also wonder if the seat was in place for Susan or if it was in place for someone taller or shorter? Wonder if she knew anyone in that apt complex or if someone just stashed the vehicle there.

I think it is interesting that the police believe that this is probably a homicide. So often you can hardly get that word out of them when it seems pretty obvious that it is a homicide. They must have found some type of evidence to point them in that direction.

I feel so bad for the two teenagers who are waiting day and night to get some word of their mother. I hope they hear something soon so at least they will know one way or the other.

I cannot find her listed on any missing persons website. I'm guessing her case has been resoved one way or another, but I don't know for sure.
