I got an email from someone saying that the Rice County Sheriff’s Dept had issued a request for certified search and rescue volunteers to help find Brittney Landsverk who’s been missing since last Friday (Nfld News story here). I wrote to Sheriff Richard Cook to verify this and he emailed me back:
Not true. We have plenty of resources we haven’t tapped into yet. We are doing this in a coordinated and methodical manner eliminating one stretch of the river at a time while doing daily patrols up and downstream as far as Northfield in case something comes up. Here is the latest press release. I will add you to the list.
