Police and family are still desperately searching for 20-year-old Mollie Tibbets who reportedly went missing after going for a jog around 7:30 on July 18 in Brooklyn, Iowa.
According to ABC News, Tibbets was dog-sitting for her boyfriend when she reportedly decided to go for an evening run.
She was last seen wearing gym shorts, a black sports bra and running shoes, according to a statement released by the Poweshiek County Sheriff’s Office.
Mollie reportedly sent her long-term boyfriend Dalton Jack, who has not been listed as a suspect, a Snapchat message which he opened at around 10pm that appeared to have been taken indoors, however, the caption and the time the message was sent is not clear.
Jack then reportedly raised concern over her whereabouts the following morning after she didn’t respond to a text message.
“It is our greatest hope that if someone has her, that they would just release her and claim that money we have raised for her freedom,” Tibbett’s mother Laura Calderwood said at a press conference Thursday.
“Every day I feel Mollie’s presence with me. Sometimes I just feel her sitting on my shoulder,” added the heartbroken mother. “Mollie was an incredibly strong young women. I don’t know that I have the strength in me, but Mollie is lending me her strength every day, every night.”
