Officials still tracking tips on missing Duluth woman 5 years later

Law enforcement officials have received tips as recently as last week in the case of Sheila St. Clair, a Duluth woman who has been missing for five years, Duluth Police Chief Mike Tusken said at a news conference Tuesday, Sept. 22, outside the Central Hillside Community Center.

Before that, there was another tip in March.

"Each one of those tips, we work in earnest to follow those leads to their natural conclusion in hope that it will be what leads us to bring Sheila home," Tusken said, during what has become an annual update on the case and reminder to the community to pass along any relevant information to authorities.

Tusken said the police department is very close to determining what happened to St. Clair, about the same as five years ago, but there are still holes in the case. He encouraged anyone with any information to call the Violent Crimes Unit at 218-730-5050. ....

The search for Sheila St. Clair, an Indigenous resident who went missing more than six years ago at age 48, continues as the case has inspired the creation of the Gaagige-Mikwendaagoziwag — “They Are Remembered Forever” — Fund to provide reward incentives.

“I haven’t given up,” said Stephanie St. Clair, of Bemidji, explaining that she remains “really hopeful” there will still be a break that leads to the discovery of where her mother went.

Describing that sense of hope, she said: “It’s been up and down a lot, but it’s still there.”

The last known sighting of Sheila St. Clair was reported Aug. 20, 2015, at the Cascade Apartments in the 100 block of West Third Street. She was 48 at the time, weighed about 115 pounds and stood about 5 feet, 4 inches tall. St. Clair, who did not have a vehicle, was believed to have been headed to the White Earth Reservation but was not heard from again.

Gaagige-Mikwendaagoziwag Fund organizers hope financial incentives offered through the fund will yield clues as to what happened to St. Clair and other missing Indigenous women and girls as well as two-spirit individuals with nonconforming gender identities.

Sheila St. Clair hugs the railing as she scales the stairs in the Cascade Apartments. It’s late summer in Duluth's Central Hillside Neighborhood.

[...]

This summer marks eight years since her adult daughter reported her missing, and her disappearance continues to plague community members and baffle law enforcement.

The Duluth Police Department released this stairwell footage on the its Facebook page a year after she was reported missing Sept. 15, 2015. What has followed is a series of unanswered, or unanswerable, questions.

Who was that man in the video? Did the police recover her mobile phone? Were there any clues on it, or in her apartment?
