It has been more than two weeks since Deidre Reid went missing. Her family says they still don’t have answers as to what happened to the South Carolina mother.

Deidre Reid Missing Case

Deidre Reid, 41, was last seen leaving her home in Pageland, S.C. to take the father of her children to the Greyhound bus station in Uptown Charlotte, according to her sister Jammie Avery.

“She was planning to meet my sister here in Charlotte after she dropped her son’s father off,” Avery said.

But Reid’s three children and her siblings never heard from her. Within a few hours, they started looking up car accidents to figure out what had happened to her.

WCNC reports:

After 24 hours, when enough time elapsed for them to file a police report, they reported her missing to Pageland Police.

Avery said it’s not like her sister to disappear, saying she is often in touch with her 11 siblings and her children.

“For one, she is always with her children,” Avery said. “She loves her kids. She would never just up and leave her children. Never.”

Authorities said Reid was reportedly last seen on Sept. 3 with Emanuel Bedford, who lives in Georgia. Police believe they made it to the Greyhound station in Uptown, but that’s where they lose Reid’s trail.

Whitley said Bedford is not a suspect or a person of interest in the case at this time. Reid’s family, however, has questions about the case and the investigation.

“[Bedford] hasn’t called to check on his son. How do you do that? His mother is missing,” said Avery.

Reid’s sister said the family feels that not enough is being done to help find their sister and that the family has had to do a lot of their own research and investigative work.

Detectives are looking for the 2004 Chevrolet Tahoe involved in the case.

“Locating that vehicle is going to be the most important thing right now in this case,” Whitley said. “Somebody knows where this vehicle is.”

 

Update: Person of Interest

EMANUEL BEDFORD

EMANUEL BEDFORD

The father of missing Deidre Reid’s son is now considered a person of interest in her disappearance.

The Pageland Police Department posted an update on its Facebook page, saying Emanuel Bedford is a person of interest in the case. Reid was last seen leaving her home to take Bedford to the Greyhound bus station in Uptown Charlotte on Sept. 3.

Any person with information about Deidre Reid’s disappearance is asked to call Pageland Police at 843-672-6437.

The family also said they are now offering $10,000 for information that leads them to find Reid.

The body of Navy veteran Jarvis McIntyre has been reportedly found in a Texas park after he was reported missing two weeks ago.

McIntyre, 26, was reportedly last seen running in John James Park on June 8 and he was heard in a 911 call saying he was being chased by a “racist”, his mother told local outlet KENS5.

McIntyre’s mother, Monikki Williams Tippet, told the outlet that a body found days later at the San Antonio park had tattoos resembling those on her missing son.

Tippet says she and her family believes someone hurt her son because he was Black and gay.

“I want answers now. I want this person found,” she said, adding that her son “didn’t deserve this. They took my baby’s life for no reason.”

McIntyre is from St. Louis, Texas and had flown to San Antonio to visit his two sisters during his birthday weekend.

He was supposed to return home on Sunday 9 June, but he tragically never made it home.

The family said they want the San Antonio Police Department to do more to help find the person responsible.

“They are treating this like a murder case,” Tippet said. “It is being treated like a murder case.”

Anyone who knows any information about this case is asked to contact the San Antonio Police Department at (210) 207-7660.

A family is holding out hope after U.S. Marine Samuel Muturi Wanjiru went missing on March 27 off the coast in Puerto Rico.

Missing details for Marine Samuel Muturi Wanjiru

Corporal Samuel Wanjiru, 26, of Worcester, Mass., was swept away by ocean currents while being in the water at La Pared beach in Luquillo.

The Coast Guard launched helicopters and aircraft to look for Wanjiru, but those search efforts were unsuccessful. The active search was called off on April 1.

At the time of his disappearance, Wanjiru was vacationing with his partner of five years, Natasha Castillo-Vargas.

Castillo-Vargas, her father, and Wanjiru’s mother are still in Puerto Rico, returning to the beach daily where Wanjiru went missing, continuing to look for him.

She has since started a GoFundMe campaign to help the family with expenses and search efforts while they remain in Puerto Rico.

“Samuel’s mother and I are trying to get as much resources and help as we can because we will not give up hope in finding our Samuel. Please, anything anyone can help with would be most appreciated.”

In addition to donations, the family asks the public for prayers and love during this “devastating and heart aching time.”
