A Sad Update...Missing 79 Year Old Christine Merten Found Deceased |
|
Posted by: thepinetree on 04/09/2017 06:04 PM

Pine Grove, CA...From the Amador County Sheriff's Department...For the last several days, we’ve been searching for 79-year-old Christine Merten. Unfortunately, this morning, we found Christine deceased. She was located by a canine team in rugged, brushy terrain north of her home. The Amador County Sheriff’s Coroner’s Office will determine the cause of death, but we do not suspect foul play. The search for Christine included the use of hundreds of ground searchers, canine teams, mounted units, OHVs, and aircraft. We would like to thank Mace Meadows Golf Course for graciously allowing us to utilize their facilities for the past five days, and the Red Cross for their substantial efforts in supporting the searchers.

Amador County Sheriff's Office Still Searching For Christine |
|
Posted by: thepinetree on 04/05/2017 05:13 PM
|
Pioneer, CA...We are still searching for Christine. At this point she has been missing for approximately 23 hours. We have used a drone with thermal imagery, helicopters, a canine and trained ground searchers. We have entered her information into the Missing Persons System, we have utilized Code Red, issued a Silver Alert and provided information to the media. Many of us have gotten to know this very sweet lady over the years, and we are not surprised by the many offers from the public to accept search assignments and join in the efforts. Unfortunately, we are precluded from accepting those offers due to liability reasons. We would ask that everyone stay vigilant and report any possible sightings. We have received several today and have followed up on every one of them, albeit without finding Christine. Please keep Christine and her family and friends in your thoughts.
