Jayme Austin, a young Coquille woman and friend of my sons’ disappeared yesterday.

She asked to go to her mother’s place to take a shower before going to work in Coos Bay. At noon, Gisholt got a call from Austin’s employer, who said Austin never showed up for work. Gisholt went home and found her daughter’s car parked outside her residence, 59376 Fairview Road, but Austin was not there, nor at her home down the road.

Unconfirmed reports indicate there were signs of a struggle and that Jayme may have had a stalker. She was also reportedly ending an abusive relationship with an individual who is believed to be at sea on a commercial fishing boat and not likely responsible for her disappearance. Other reports state that divers are searching a pond in the vicinity of her mother’s home.

Please keep up the good thoughts for her safe return.
