Says she's 5'3" and 130 lbs. I assume that's what she was when she was last seen nearly two years ago. Also has brown hair, which also could have been changed. I can appreciate how worried the family must be .... hope they get some news.

Kind of freaked when I found a FindAGrave listing for this name who died in 2012 -- turned out to be a 48-year-old woman from New Hampshire, no relation at all.

It says she left town when she find out she had a warrant for her arrest. The date of her disappearance is when she had been arrested and charged with multiples offenses. She posted bail and left.

It's been four years since. I'm hoping this is just a Michelle McMullen type of situation where they are just on the run, hiding and avoiding charges, but alive and not like Bradyn Fuksa where they killed themselves.

The part that was left out is that the guy she was with has a long history of violence towards women. She never posted bail and was just released. Megan left her mother and daughter behind. It's now been 41/2 years of no leads, nothing at all. She didn't have a warrant until she didn't show up for court in Dececmber 2012. She just vanished in July 2012.

Details of Disappearance
Sweeney was last seen by her family in Ocean City, Maryland sometime during June 2012. She left the area after learning she was wanted by the police. Sweeney's family never heard from her again.

On July 8 of that year, she was arrested in Frederick County, Maryland and charged with theft of a motor vehicle, unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, theft of less than $1,000 and theft of less than $10,000. She and a male companion had allegedly stolen a van.

Sweeney posted $10,000 bond and was released the same day; this is the last sign of her. When she failed to appear in court, a warrant was issued for her arrest on October 17. Her family reported her missing in May 2014, almost two years after they last saw her, stating it was uncharacteristic of her to be out of touch with them for this long and they were concerned.

Authorities believe Sweeney may have traveled to Georgia or Florida after her disappearance. Her case remains unsolved.

With the help of one of her former friends I was able to locate Megan in Ohio. This case has been resolved thanks to our tips to police and their response.
