Overview

  • The RCMP has dismantled its command centre and ended large-scale ground searches for the Sullivan siblings, missing since May 2, 2025.
  • The case remains an active missing-persons investigation and is being treated as suspicious, with no evidence of abduction found so far.
  • Search efforts covered four square kilometres of dense forest using drones, helicopters, canine units, and approximately 160 searchers daily.
  • Future efforts will focus on revisiting previously searched areas and may involve human remains detection dogs.
  • Family members and community volunteers continue to support the investigation, urging caution against harmful speculation on social media.
