Just a comment with no implication whatever: but there is a pattern in what has usually happened to missing (blond or not blond) women, and it isn't connected to the world of financial high flyers.

agree 100%
 
Wayne said that Planck's dog was found at an apartment complex in downtown Los Angeles with none of her belongings.

Has anyone seen any indication that she was either losing her job or indicted as part of the JS fun with the SEC? (I am not on FB or IG.) Did she disappear to avoid investigation? Is that why her home was raided? <modsnip>

I can see the need for witness protection here but I think they would have told her ex and her young child that she was safe but couldn't contact them. That's the only reason I dont think she is in WP.

But I do lean towards her maybe running off voluntarily because something happened suddenly and she knew she was in danger.

If Heidi was working in a small office <modsnip> and perhaps a couple of other people, she would overhear conversations frequently. Even if she wasn’t made aware of some details, the tenor and implications of those conversations would be apparent. She has been working with these entities for over a decade. She has to be cognizant of some of the purposes of these LLCs.

When she was hired, Heidi probably had no idea her employers were controversial and potentially involved in fraud, but she was educated and worldly enough to realize something was wrong over time. It is possible that Heidi was asked to be a public face for some of these entities, dealing with investors much as a realtor would, and answering questions.

As @Mimi on the beach notes, she’s well paid. Los Angeles is a very expensive place to live, and she has a nice home and a nice car. Her ex might be sharing the cost of the private school, but she appears to be living an affluent lifestyle. If she’s a clerical employee, how would she sustain her standard of living?
Yes, I think she knows enough to be dangerous to someone. Especially because the Feds could put pressure on her, threaten to charge her with crimes unless she divulges info. Her employer's know that.

100% agree. I will be shocked if her ex has anything to do with this.
He has a pretty strong alibi, being at the game with his son. Doesn't mean he couldn't have set her up but I don't see any strong motive.

There doesn't seem to be a custody dispute. And he wouldn't have an insurance payout w/out a body.

I haven't seen anything about her losing her job, but I do think the raid was planned before she went missing.

ITA. The feds that entered her house were not looking for clues to a missing person, imo. However, IF someone was tipped off that there was going to be a raid, that may have precipitated her disappearance, either by her own volition, or not. JMO
 
California mom, 39, vanishes and her dog is found wandering alone on the 28th floor of a high rise

Planck’s LinkedIn says she works as a controller at Camden Capital – a role which sees her overseeing all employees involved in the accounting process, including accounts receivable, accounts payable, payroll, inventory and compliance.

JS, a managing partner at Camden Capital, was charged in June 2019 by the Securities and Exchange Commission for his role in a scheme to steal $43 million of client funds they purported to invest in Native American tribal bonds.

How would that work though? Are you thinking the search warrant was obtained by the FBI and specified files related to her business? Was LAPD only there because the warrant was in their jurisdiction? Judges don't like overly broad search warrants, they were there for one or the other (business information or MP Case) unless they suspect she is missing due to business reasons? It's late, does that make sense, lol?
 
I don't think the ex has anything or any reason to do anything. The dog and her job stand out to me. If I were put into any witness protection my kid would be there with me to protect him as well. Hell, my ex and the rest of family would be too. IMO

To me, sounds more like the plot of a fictional thriller than anything that happens in real life.

Remember when Martha Stewart went to jail for violating SEC regulations? Does anyone imagine she would have offed her executive assistant to try to escape the investigation?

These convoluted financial maneouvers are a big part of big money these days, it's the way rich people get richer. The recent release of the Pandora papers is an attempt to bring some openness to whole issue.

But it's not the Mafia, it's not the Hell's Angels. It's all done through accountants and lawyers, and offshore tax havens.

I do not believe the FBI would have jumped into a missing persons case that, at least as far as we know, does not seem to involve Heidi crossing state lines, and although they could be called in if it seems a federal crime is involved, the fact that they took out files would seem to indicate that they were focusing on the business when they entered, imho, and I believe LAPD went along for the very reason you stated, it is their jurisdiction.

Why do you think they were federal agents? In the footage I've seen, every one with a jacket says LAPD. In footage of FBI raids, there are FBI jackets.

Point taken. It does sound like the plot of a fictional thriller, but bottom line is, something apparently has happened to her. It is not normal for people to just disappear without reason.
 
Gotcha. Still, contract killings to hush witnesses in white collar cases are more a John Grisham plot device than a real world occurrence. Risking a murder conviction to protect yourself from a fraud charge when the feds already have enough evidence to bring charges would be deeply illogical at best. MOO

Uncommon perhaps, but we don't know whether her employer could be charged with more fraud charges than he already faces. That's a possibility. We could also be looking at an investor who's been swindled and lost everything. A lot of unknowns here.
