She worked in the city at hotels, a gas station and a grocery store. She was not reported missing until late February 2016, three months later. Two women reported they picked up a hitchhiker resembling Murdock in Rapid City, South Dakota on February 24, 2016. The hitchhiker told them she was on her way to North Dakota to get a job, and the women gave her a ride from one end of the city to another. Later they thought her story was odd, found Murdock's photo and missing persons report online, and thought they recognized her. This sighting has not been confirmed, however. Murdock's disappearance is uncharacteristic of her behavior, as she usually kept in touch with her mother. She has ties to Colorado; her twin sister lives there. Her case remains unsolved. Other information and links : ncy Williston Police Department 701-577-1212 September 2021 updates and sources A missing person is a person who has disappeared and whose status as alive or dead cannot be confirmed as their location and condition are not known. A person may go missing through a voluntary disappearance, or else due to an accident, crime, death in a location where they cannot be found (such as at sea), or many other reasons. In most parts of the world, a missing person will usually be found quickly. While criminal abductions are some of the most widely reported missing person cases, these account for only 2�5% of missing children in Europe. By contrast, some missing person cases remain unresolved for many years. Laws related to these cases are often complex since, in many jurisdictions, relatives and third parties may not deal with a person's assets until their death is considered proven by law and a formal death certificate issued. The situation, uncertainties, and lack of closure or a funeral resulting when a person goes missing may be extremely painful with long-lasting effects on family and friends. Several organizations seek to connect, share best practices, and disseminate information and imAge at the time of disappearance: s of missing children to improve the effectiveness of missing children investigations, including the International Commission on Missing Persons, the International Centre for Missing & Exploited Children (ICMEC), as well as national organizations, including the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children in the US, Missing People in the UK, Child Focus in Belgium, and The Smile of the Child in Greece.
