PITTSBURGH — Channel 11 is digging deeper into the investigation surrounding a woman whom police say was last seen in Brighton Heights.

*****************

Channel 11 visited California Avenue on Wednesday and spoke with numerous nearby workers and passersby. Flyers dedicated to finding Keefer were pasted on many poles and windows. No one indicated that they had seen Keefer before.

“I just hope she’s alright. This neighborhood is alright, but anything can happen,” said Francis Beerhalter, owner of Pops & Son Pizzeria.

********************

Numerous friends of Keefer’s have contacted Channel 11, expressing their concern over her wellbeing. They tell us Keefer is both a wife and mother.

Public records reveal that Keefer is from Robinson Township. We visited the address listed for her, per county records. A man who identified himself as her husband declined to offer a public statement.

We also contacted Robinson Township police to see if they are part of the investigation. We were transferred to voicemail and have yet to hear back.
 
Me either. WPXI never responded to my email.
There are no missing flyers around that I’m aware of.

That photo in the purple coat is not SK. Just a pic of a similar coat.

The Pgh Police Safety Blotter says she was last seen walking in the 3600 block of California Ave.
NAMUS says Keefer was last seen in the morning of 12/1/22 near the intersection of Ohio River Blvd. and Brighton Heights Blvd.

There is a camera on a pole at that intersection of the McKees Rocks Bridge and Ohio River Blvd.

Case gone silent. Why?

I remember from following male river drownings in Pittsburgh that there have been known issues with many cameras on the city being non functional. Makes me wonder if that is still the case. But even more I can't understand why the silence on this one.

I have been wondering if SK has been located and she has requested privacy. That’s the only reason I can think of that makes any sense to me.
 
I've wondered about that. But wouldn't they remove her from Namus if that were the case?
Last year I wrote to NAMUS requesting that a missing person (Abigail Gill, TN) be removed as social media noted her as located.

This was the response I received ( I have removed the specialist name.)


Thank you very much for this information. Any alterations to the record (edits, additions, or removal) must be approved by the agency who controls the investigation. I will forward this information to the agency for their review and will apply their response to the NamUs record if deemed appropriate.

Ugh. So clearly updates can take a while if they happen at all.
 
Somehow I missed this section of the 12/7/22 article, that I have now bolded. So, two women were together? And the woman in the purple coat was not Sherri… so who are these women and what do they have to do with Sherri being missing? I’m confused.

“I just hope she’s alright. This neighborhood is alright, but anything can happen,” said Francis Beerhalter, owner of Pops & Son Pizzeria.

Beerhalter has surveillance cameras outside of his business, directed toward California Avenue. He told us that police stopped by this week to check out his footage.

He says he provided video footage to police, which shows two women walking side by side, holding coffees. One of them appears to be wearing a purple coat similar to the one in the photograph provided by Pittsburgh Public Safety.

We reached out to Pittsburgh Public Safety to ask if officers have identified the other woman. A spokesperson told us there are currently no updates, but said the woman seen wearing the purple coat in the video was not Keefer.

The language is just vague enough to not really say anything useful isn't it? They say the woman wearing the coat wasn't her but nothing definitive about the "sighting" being ruled out completely.
