Stephanie, whom I have worked with for 8 years, is missing. Missing since Monday. My Wife and I have been out of town and I just found out about it today. She left her home at 10pm Monday night to go for a walk. Hasn’t been heard from since. She’s a Mother of three. This is NOT like her. It’s been down to 15 below zero Fahrenheit for the last two nights. Shit shit shit. ---

I hope this turns out well. But who goes for a walk in sub-zero weather? At 10 pm? ---

Thanks Khadaji, and Garden. She was laid off from work 5 weeks ago. And I just found out that she was going through a divorce at the time. I didn’t know. I’m a bit worried. No. I’m real worried. She’s a long time local. So I doubt she would be dumb enough to let the weather get her. But, I guess you never know. ---

> [@Fish\_Cheer](#): > > I hope this turns out well. > > But who goes for a walk in sub-zero weather? At 10 pm? Monday night at 10pm, it was ‘still’ about 10 above. But I asked the same question. I’ve lived up here for 19 years. And while I am certainly more remote than she is, a late walk like that, with bad weather coming in seems… odd. It was a full moon though. The paper says that the police don’t suspect foul play. ---

If the soon-to-be ex-husband didn’t do something to her, I would hate to be him. Seems like a lot of these stories end up with a husband/ex-husband behind it. Here’s hoping for a logical and good conclusion. ---

Thanks all. And thanks for the sounding board. Can’t imagine what the family is going through. No news as of yet. They should be able to do quite a bit more searching today. She was not walking a dog, so the 10:30pm walk is a little odd. But you never know. I suspect that perhaps they had an argument, and she decided to leave. Pure speculation though. There is a lake near her house, but no mention of searching it. I suspect it has enough ice on it to not be considered dangerous, don’t know for sure. They are talking about bringing the husband in for a polygraph. ---
