Numerous police and public safety agencies were still searching Sunday evening for a Dover woman who apparently walked away from Hickory Haven mobile home park early Sunday morning.

Lynn M. Rickard, 59, was reported missing at 9:13 a.m. Sunday by her husband. She was last seen at about 1 a.m.

Rickard has possible undiagnosed mental health issues and may be unclothed, according to the Racine County dispatch center. She has no violent tendencies and may appear confused if confronted. She is supposed to be on oxygen continually.

Rickard is white, about 5 feet 4 inches tall, about 150 pounds, with brown hair longer than shoulder length and brown eyes.

I second your what? Assuming she was sleeping?

Or maybe she has past history of doing that from whatever mental illness she has? Poor lady. How far could she get if she has to be on oxygen?

I wonder who last saw her at 1 a.m. I'm guessing the husband and woke up that a.m. and she was gone.
 
Investigators received reports of two sightings of Rickard, naked and crossing a field, within a mile of her home at about 7 a.m. Sunday.


Her husband, John, reported his wife missing two hours later when he said he woke up and discovered Lynn, who was being treated for an undiagnosed mental illness, had jumped out the living room window.


A distraught John Rickard on Tuesday was trying to stay positive.

“When you do nothing but cry for three days in a row you dry out, you know,” John Rickard said. “We just want to get the word out. She could have been abducted because they’ve found no signs of her (since Sunday). I don’t think, personally, she could survive three nights in the cold, naked.”

BBM. This explains the initial naked report. The article also says she wandered away before, about 5 months ago and was found. Hopefully they find her soon!

[h=1]Racine County woman has been missing for 1 month[/h]
KANSASVILLE, WI - It has been one month since a 59-year-old woman out of Racine County went missing.



Lynn Rickard left her home in Kansasville, Wisconsin on Sunday, July 24. Her husband said no one has seen or heard from her since.

“She’s naked and barefoot," John Rickard said. "She [doesn't] have her oxygen on and she’s severely paranoid."
Presumed paranoid after changing medications, John Rickard said his wife, Lynn Rickard, of 22 years has not been the same since changing medications.


“They found a spot on her lung," Rickard said. "She went into the hospital and they took her off her Xanax and they put her on the other stuff and three days she was paranoid."

I'm confused about the sightings at 7a.m. Were they not reported to LE right away, or after the fact? Her husband reported her missing two hours later. I would call LE immediately if I saw someone walking around naked, or try to get to her myself. I feel so bad for her poor husband and pray she is found alive soon!
