LOOKS LIKE WE NEED TO FIND ELAINE MCKINLEY
from Just The Tip-Sters: True Crime Podcast · host Bleav + Melissa Morgan
Elaine McKinley's wife had a simple request for her 81st birthday: a short hike and a picnic with Elaine and a friend. Kit knew it was the perfect time of year to see all of the wild flowers in bloom. Its easy to see that Elaine, 79 and her wife Kit were not your average senior citizens. They hiked three days a week and took ballroom dancing classes three times a week. Elaine had Alzheimers but was a force to be reckoned with. The three women went on the short, not strenuous hike and as usual Elaine raced ahead of Kit and their friend. It was assumed that Elaine went ahead to the picnic site. When Kit and the friend got to the picnic tables there was no Elaine. Because of her age and cognitive issues search and rescue responded immediately. Drones, dogs, searchers on foot, thermal planes, no source was spared. And yet...Elaine remains missing.
