MD MD - Brittnee Dancho, 33, mother of 3, left distressing note, phone pinged on bridge, Salisbury, Sep 2024

[imstilla.grandma]

We’re told 33-year-old Brittnee Dancho is a mother of three who reportedly left a concerning note before leaving the morning of September 25th. Police say her phone last pinged on the Woodrow Wilson Bridge near National Harbor and could possibly be driving a white (Ice Edge – gray tint) 2021 Toyota Camry XSE.

She left behind this note which reads ‘Please tell them I love them. Fed cat & dog 9/25 0645. Love you all. (TCS)

Not got a good feeling about this one.

She seems to have left of her own accord, and the bridge... Yeah.

I think that unless she drove into the water somehow, finding the car is key to knowing where to look.

MOO

So concerning - here is her Instagram account for what appears to be work. She's a registered nurse. Login • Instagram Looks like she works for a med spa or dermatologist doing botox and fillers (I don't have it done, but my dermatologist has a couple RN's on staff for such thing). Here is her personal Instagram. Login • Instagram The Aware foundation has her full name on the Salsbury Police missing poster as Brittnee Lauren Dancho Collins.

Looks like this may be her Maryland wedding site, wedding date was 2019.

She's been through a lot of emotional changes in her life, IMO. I hope she just got away and is seeking help but I'm not feeling good about the note, the phone? She could have just thrown it off the bridge so she couldn't be tracked, but I'm worried for her.

One note. As someone here already pointed out - there is one missing persons post on FB that indicates her vehicle was found (and where). That is not supported by anything I could find on MSM nor by the police department that issued the missing information. I have been looking and found nothing. So treat it as unverified.

That's the Facebook Post I saw but didn't link as I couldn't find anything on the news that validated the finding of the vehicle. There's still no word on the vehicle other than an update 3 hours ago that she might be driving it (Maryland State Police) https://www.wmdt.com/2024/09/maryland-state-police-searching-for-missing-salisbury-woman/ Salisbury Police Department page makes NO mention of the vehicle being found. So I have no idea from what source the Aware Foundation got that information from, but will keep checking the news.

 

[GraceG]

Still no verification as to the vehicle being found though multiple people are now repeating it on Facebook after reading the initial post. One person stated the location where the car was (allegedly) found was only a 20 minute walk from the bridge where the phone pinged. Nope. It's 15 miles. I mapped out the named park (Arlington Forest Park) and the bridge (Woodrow Wilson Bridge National Harbor) where the phone pinged and it's not close. Mapquest map: https://www.mapquest.com/directions...aryland/woodrow-wilson-bridge-trail-487508227 (the trail is very close to the bridge itself for mapping purposes) Google Maps .

NOTE: Her last husband, who is pictured on his FB with one of her children (so assume he's the Dad), has some missing info up for her. Most is what LE has posted. There's an interesting comment by MK regarding an observation made by a neighbor who saw her leaving.

 

[truthfinder2019]

Indeed. usually The Aware F is precise and also always (or very often) gives additional details, so I thought it worth posting, but let’s see how media follow…

 

[Jsizzle]

This is very local to me. I have a lot of mutual friends of hers. I hope she’s found . Just speculating but I’m hoping that she threw her phone out the window on the bridge and the drive the 15 miles to Dump her car. Hoping she just needed a break and she’ll come back. But this is very disheartening

 

[ChatteringBirds]

It sounds like she's going through a lot, but hopefully she changed her mind and is chilling in a hotel somewhere. It's okay to need a break and to get away for awhile. Rooting for her.

She also has a personal Instagram, lots of photos of her kids. She says she's a single mum, so I assume the marriage didn't last.

If that was the case, the car being found so far away doesn't make sense. You'd expect it to be on the bridge.

One thing that seems to be a theme throughout her accounts is mentions of trauma recovery. I know that people without a trauma past can be at risk of suicide, too, but it gives me pause. As a trauma endurer myself, it feels a bit like she was smiling harder, making her socials all the more positive, but what was going on inside may have been a lot harder and more challenging. There's a toxic positivity/fake it till you make it vibe in social media surrounding trauma that can pull people under like a riptide. There's so much emphasis on being a SurvivorTM and HealingTM and ThrivingTM and fixing your own garbage with nothing but willpower, filters, and yoga, and it can trip you up if you buy into it. I don't blame anyone for buying into it, you just want to be done, fixed, well, but trauma doesn't work that way. If you buy into that stuff, trauma can eat you alive.

MOO

Hoping Britnee returns safely, three beautiful reasons she is needed are waiting at home.

Who did she leave the note for and who has the kids?

I did read through some of her social media. In 2021 she was really ill, look for 7/24/23 post

Are they positive it is her vehicle?
Could she have walked back to the bridge?
