Not much information on her current life circumstances? Last seen, SO or boyfriend? A post on her page back in August says she is contracted to do work at four Dollar General stores, a few others talk about working at a bar. Looks like she has kids that need thier Mama back. Hopefully more information is made available.

There was another MP case in Cass County that I followed, but the name is escaping me at the moment. Anyone else remember, it was pretty high profile IIRC?

Kara Blevins?

No, after googling around, it was Alayna Ertl

Noting location:

A hunter located Mae's missing Jeep on Friday, Oct. 4 in Aitkin County in a rural area southwest of Hill City, which is approximately 20-30 miles from Outing.

Was it in the woods? That sounds ominous

Was it in the woods? That sounds ominous

It was described as a rural area which, of course, doesn't necessarily mean "woods," but it's possible.

Standard procedure would warrant a search of the area where the vehicle was found and we haven't heard about that either.

Someone needs to wake up the media in MN! MOO

More than likely, yes. That area is all woods and water (State Forest area). Aitkin County is north of the Twin Cities.... see googlemap below:

And just as a reference point:

So Michelle's Jeep Liberty was found roughly 17 miles from Outing, assuming that was her last seen location. Pretty isolated out there. I wonder how far from Swatara her car was actually found? There are a few decent sized lakes outside of town (if you can call it that).

Definitely ominous... did she like to camp? Did she have plans to do so? If not I have a really bad feeling her car was dumped there...

 

[diggndeeperstill]

Has anyone discovered anything about her kids or their father? Or who reported her missing?

 

[diggndeeperstill]

Agreed. And wonder what the temps were then? I certainly wouldn’t want to camp in the cold.
