Police looking for missing woman -

Shannon Rippy, 54, was last seen at her home in the 100 block of South Fifth Avenue about 7 p.m. Saturday, according to a Facebook event called Search Team for Shannon Rippy. Police met Rippy's family at the Fifth Avenue home to conduct a welfare check at her residence and, after there was no answer at the front door, Blanton said, entered the home. Rippy was not there.

Michele Seidman gives us the story. “Shannon and her Mom spoke Saturday (April 5th) night around 7pm. Shannon told her Mom she was turning in soon. Sunday, the family went over to celebrate her birthday and she was not there at her home at the 100 block of S 5th. They left the gifts on the porch. I am guessing they figured she would be back soon. But she did not contact them again and Monday morning they went back to her house and the gifts were still on the porch. They contacted the police who helped them enter the house. They did not find Shannon. That is what we know.

This lady is in the film industry as a production manager. Here's the Search Team for Shannon Rippy (Van Newkirk) Page:

The Wilmywood Daily, a blog-type site that posts undustry-related news has a post about her. It basically says how the family came to find her missing. It was her Birthday and they left presents on her porch as she was not answering. Then a day later the presents were still there. It also left a contact name and FB page for that person for any information. I don't think I can post the page as it really isn't MSM.




Okay nm! it has been posted! :)
 
Sounds like Shannon disappeared Saturday night, sometime after 7:00PM. At the facebook page, there is a mention of an argument that took place at the Husk that Saturday at 3:00PM. Wonder what the details are?
 
They say Saturday, Rippy got a new hair cut, a spray tan, she was getting ready for her birthday weekend. Her friends say they've been checking local businesses to see if anyone heard anything but so far nothing.

"Shannon's just a warm sensitive person," Fernando said. "A hard working young lady, and she was well loved I could say that."

Getting a spray tan and a haircut, in preparation for a her birthday weekend. Doesn't sound like a woman who wants to disappear. Or for that matter, a woman who intends to go to bed shortly after 7:00 PM?

It sounds like she had been at the Husk earlier in the afternoon, and was rumored to have had an argument with someone there and left. Did someone call her later, and ask to stop by?
 
Also on the fb page it was posted that she was seeing someone new. And that she was going to celebrate her birthday with them. Her relationship status is: it's complicated.

I would assume LE is already getting the phone records. Wonder if her phone or purse was at her home.

Her segway was located and was not missing.

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) --
Wilmington Police say a woman missing since the weekend went to a downtown Wilmington bar Saturday afternoon. Shannon Rippy's mother says she last spoke with her daughter Saturday night. Bobbi Lewis says she and Rippy's aunt went to Rippy's S. 5th St. home Sunday afternoon to take her out for her birthday, but she wasn't home.

Is there any news on this missing person?

Are we allowed to post verifiable information on a missing person? The state of NC has some records on her...
 
I wonder if she was at The Husk from 3 until 7pm? There is a photo of her entering The Husk at 3 pm, and this article states she was there at 7. Was she seen on camera leaving? Was she leaving alone or leaving with someone?
IMOO.

In the comments - so grain of salt...might be helpful timeline wise if true.

Also, it appears that name is an alias (or the last name) - guessing Thordis you're seeing that also (if we're looking at the same sort of stuff?)
 
Well, since it's on the search page it can be posted, I believe (b/c knowing her real name may help her be found)

https://www.facebook.com/events/619207968154616/?ref=br_rs

Last name is: Van Newkirk

If anyone is local:
There are flyers and a sign-in sheet at Delphino Dos (5 Water St. Harper's Rest.) Please get flyers at your convenience and continue to spread the word... If anyone has any pertinent information...please call the Wilmington Police Dept. @ 910-343-3600. Talk with employers and employees of the downtown establishments and also the people walking in the downtown area..

Also, they're doing a great job of tracking what they're covering.

There's additional pics of her on there and a flyer that can be downloaded.

And then the many updates of where they've looked or posted flyers.
 
Also, it appears that name is an alias (or the last name) - guessing Thordis you're seeing that also (if we're looking at the same sort of stuff?)

I also found the same, as well.
If she is a victim(not leaving of her own free will), I hesitate to post about her past, particularly if it does not concern the present status of her, although it would give insight to the type of person she was/is.
IMOO.
 
I think her past is important no matter if she left willingly or not. A person's past can, unfortunately or fortunately, dictate a person's present.
