Overview

  • Elizabeth Roundy reported her 13-year-old son and 15-year-old daughter missing on June 22 after they vanished from a shop near their Monteview home.
  • An Amber Alert issued on June 23 generated tips nationwide but detectives have found no confirmed vehicle or signs of forced abduction.
  • After failing to locate a suspect car or other evidence linking FLDS members to the case, the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office moved from a kidnapping inquiry to probing a voluntary departure.
  • Roundy, a former FLDS member, fears the disappearance stems from a 2022 Warren Jeffs revelation to consecrate children for purity and recalls her eldest daughter Elintra’s similar 2023 vanishing.
  • Law enforcement continues to seek information on Allen Larand Fischer and Rachelle Leray Fischer and urges anyone with relevant details to contact the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office.
