Christina Whitaker has been missing since Nov. 13th. I've heard that she was at the bar and got kicked out. She was very drunk & had prescription pills on her and was talking about suicide. Her mom is worried sick and has been involved in searches with our local police and search dog. They have also used water patrol to check the river as Hannibal is right on the Mississippi. The search dog picked up her scent and they've had some leads but nothing has panned out. She has a six month old. Any help is very much appreciated.

Police expand search for missing Hannibal woman

Hannibal, MO —

Police broadened their search for a missing Hannibal woman Tuesday, but did not suspect foul play.

Twenty-one-year-old Christina Whittaker disappeared at 11:45 p.m. Friday after leaving Rookies Sports Bar at 611 Broadway.

“There’s nothing to indicate foul play,” Police Capt. James Hark said Tuesday afternoon. “We’re not ruling that out, but we’re pursuing all angles at this point.”

Hark said detectives were conducting a wide search that included the assistance of a Missouri Water Patrol boat, the use of all-terrain vehicles and the help of other law enforcement agencies.

“We’ve been in contact with family, friends and acquaintances,” he said. “We’ve had officers go and knock on doors of places of previous known contacts. We’re blanketing every area we can think of.”

Hark said Whittaker’s family had been cooperative. He called the intensive search a “typical response” by his department to a missing persons report.
“We always broaden our scope,” he said. “We’re trying to follow up everything we can. Information is really thin right now.”

Investigators said Whittaker met with friends Friday night at the downtown bar.

A police report indicated she was asked to leave by a bartender “due to her level of intoxication” and the fact that she became “disorderly with other bar patrons.”

Witnesses said Whittaker left the bar by herself and was last seen wearing a white T-shirt, pink tank top and pink and white Nike tennis shoes.

“Other information from witnesses indicates while at the bar Christina was not only consuming a large quantity of alcohol but also taking prescription medication,” according to a police report.

Court records show Whittaker’s last known address as 1708 Ruby in the Oakwood neighborhood on the southwest side of the city.

People with information should call the department’s Criminal Investigation Division at (573) 221-0987.

Could it be possible that perhaps someone picked her up by car, truck, or van, and took her across the river to Illinois?

Are there any bridges where she could have walked across the river and went into Illinois?

Yes, there are a few bridges that go across the river from Hannibal to IL. I'm not sure about Tim Miller but she is listed on Nancy Grace's website now. They held a candlelight vigil the other night.
