I live in VA and this is the first I've heard of her disappearance.

Cant see anything new?

...Chief Clair said the department is looking at the case with fresh eyes and will be interviewing family members and the last people to see Pakacki again.

Chief Clair said the Marion Police Department held a planning meeting last week to discuss plans for the investigation. The department also conducted a grid search of the area Pakacki was last seen .

Marion investigators open up about three-year search for missing woman

Witnesses told police that Pakacki told them the night she was last seen that she was going to text a friend for a ride. They later saw her getting into a pickup truck at the end of the driveway, they said, but were unable to see the color or make of the truck in the dark.

It would be more than a week before she was reported missing.

Several days later, Haynes got a message from Pakacki's number saying that she didn't want to be found, not to worry about her and that she was OK.

The messages came from Pakacki's phone number, but Haynes said she had doubts it was her daughter sending them.

“She wasn't talking to me like Meghann,” Haynes said in a 2017 interview. “She was talking about 'I'll be in Bristol hanging with my homies.' She doesn't talk to me that way.”

Slight differences in the way certain words were spelled also alerted Haynes that something might be amiss. One message read, “I love you mama,” but Haynes pointed out that Pakacki always spelled the word m-o-m-m-a.

Shortly after Haynes received those messages, Pakacki's phone was disconnected.

In 2017, Haynes said Pakacki had taken off once as a teenager for a few days and again for about a week when she was 18, but that she’d never been known to leave for long periods of time.

Updated MAY 26 (7 hrs ago)


Marion investigators have followed up on hundreds of tips, conducted dozens of interviews and executed several search warrants, but while their exhaustive efforts in the search for Jami Megan-LaBeth Pakacki have led to a number of promising leads, many have turned into dead ends.

“We’ve double- and triple-checked everything we have, we’ve worked on everything new we’ve gotten, and we’re down to those last two or three possibilities,” said Marion Police Chief John Clair.

“Unfortunately, we just haven’t gotten any closer.”
