Cleveland case gives hope in local missing-person cases
[snip]
The Cleveland case also offered a glimmer of hope to friends and family who have been searching for Jacque Waller since she vanished June 1, 2011.
"We are joyful that the three kidnapped women in Cleveland have been found and will be reunited with their loved ones," Laura Long Helbig, a spokeswoman for Waller's family, said in a statement emailed to the Southeast Missourian. "This is certainly an outcome that we have prayed for, and until Jacque is found, we will never give up hope that she might also be happily reunited with her children and family and friends."
The mother of three from Jackson was 39 when she disappeared, leaving behind triplets her sister had described as the center of her world.
"She never would have left her children. Her world revolved around them," Waller's sister, Cheryl Brenneke, told the Southeast Missourian in August 2011.
Prosecutors don't think Waller will be found alive. Her estranged husband, Clay Waller, was charged with first-degree murder last year in connection with her disappearance, but her body has not been found. Clay Waller's trial is set to begin Sept. 9.
