Are the "large stones" diamonds? She appears to have had plastic surgery and that takes money, how much is this lady worth and who are her beneficiaries, I'd take a closer look at them. It's hard to believe she's been missing since Nov 16 and her people are only starting to worry about her disappearance? Somethings rotten in Denmark and it isn't the cheese.
If I was the family, I'd be asking lots of questions: Why wasn't the public notified sooner? If she took a cab, there should be a record, has anyone checked?. Does the hospital have a surveillance system? Does it show anything?
Missing for 3 weeks ... maybe the public could have heard about it sooner so we could have helped sooner?
Hopefully she will still be found safe.
