Overview

• Two RCMP human‑remains detection teams searched roughly 40 kilometres near Lansdowne Station in late September.
• The teams canvassed the family property, a nearby pipeline with intersecting trails, and the site where a pink blanket was previously recovered.
• Police say the dogs are trained to indicate human‑remains scent, so no alerts suggest no detectable odour in those locations, though this is not conclusive.
• The Northeast Nova Major Crime Unit reports following up on more than 860 tips, reviewing 8,060 video files, and continuing forensic testing.
• Lilly, 6, and Jack Sullivan, 4, have been missing since May 2, and RCMP say they are considering all possibilities as the investigation continues.
