Hi All,
Firstly can I say that Leisl WAS pregnant, but miscarried just before she went missing. Also, she isn't the eldest, she is actually in the middle (lucky me is the eldest) and when Storm found out she was pregnant the first time, he was rather supportive of Leisl with whatever she chose to do. She wouldn't have been ashamed to tell Storm, or the rest of our family.
Secondly, we are privy to a few other things, that as you know, I can't share here. I can reiterate what we did see on CCTV.
She locked the car and left. To the best of my knowledge, the keys have not been recovered or found.
She has not used her bank accounts, phone, FB or anything else for more than 6 months. We are at our wits end and as you can imagine, are more than a little frustrated, especially when media (such as newspapers) either can't spell her name properly (proof reading anyone?) or get their facts wrong without bothering to check with us... I wont mention specifics but it does add to the stress that we are already under.
I understand that the police cannot tell us certain things for fear of comprising evidence and what not. What don't understand is the treatment we received ( can only speak for myself and my dad), the speculation that we as a grieving family cannot see the forest for the trees (I am at a loss for this, but anyway...) and all the rumours and what not that are flying about with regards to our family.
I am not accusing anyone, but please do bear in mind, that unless you know our family personally and for an extended period of time, it is highly likely that half of what you have heard is probably untrue and I would ask that unless it's been verified by me (either posting here or in PM to you personally) then please don't repeat.
Leisl to our knowledge was not seeing anyone. We believe that the POI does have information. Whether that relates to what happened to her and where she is or that they had a direct involvement with regards to foul play we don't know. They are currently just our suspicions and nothing else. This doesn't mean the person is guilty.
Sorry if I am blunt, but as you can imagine, it's very frustrating and emotionally exhausting. I'm also currently in the middle of night shift, so please excuse any errors.
Hope you are all well.
