Bump! Praying for Aubreys safe return
 
GREELEY - The FBI is now involved in the search for a Greeley woman who disappeared in Nepal two months ago, according to the family of the missing woman.

"It's moved from a search and rescue to a criminal investigation," Paul Sacco said.
Sacco's daughter, 23-year-old Aubrey Sacco, went missing while on a trek through the Asian country of Nepal. She had been hiking alone on a remote trail.
The Saccos organized a search from their Greeley home, but that search produced few results.
"There isn't a trace of evidence as to what happened," Sacco said.

Missing US girl's travel partner in Thailand

It has been more than two months but the whereabouts of a missing American trekker, Aubrey Caroline Sacco, are still unknown.

[snip]

The authorities now suspect involvement of a criminal group and are treating the case as a criminal matter.

According to highly placed sources, the US Embassy has located Aubrey’s ‘travel partner’ Steve Miller in Thailand. Aubrey, along with Miller, had entered Nepal via Darjeeling. Sources claim that Miller had not checked into Langtang Park. “Miller had accompanied her till they reached Hotel Elite,” add the sources.

The search team had found her laptop, journals, a guitar and a few more items from the hotel.

Nepali Police admitted that it failed to figure out what might have happened to her. But it said it would investigate from scratch from a new angle.

Was the travel partner her boyfriend?
 
Could fear be hindering search for missing hiker?

Aubrey Sacco was living up to her motto, "glitter the world," on her five-month post-college trip through South Asia before she disappeared in Nepal last spring, her family says.

The 23-year-old artist and musician from Colorado started her trip in December, teaching yoga to vacationers in Sri Lanka. Later, she went to India, studying yoga and volunteering to help schoolchildren with art and music.

Sacco vanished in April during a hike along Nepal's sylvan and rocky Langtang trek. Some volunteers who've helped look for her say they've heard a disturbing refrain from villagers: Even if they or others in the area did know what caused her disappearance, they wouldn't reveal it.

Although many factors -- such as the area's remoteness and difficult terrain -- have made clues to Sacco's fate hard to come by, the villagers' fear of Nepali authorities may be a significant obstacle in the hunt for the truth, some of the searchers say.

Reward Money Upped For U.S. Hiker Missing In Nepal

After a tireless but so far futile effort, the family of missing U.S. hiker Aubrey Sacco has upped the reward money for information leading to the whereabouts of the 23-year-old woman to $14,000.

"We don't care who is responsible for her disappearance, we just want Aubrey back. We believe that someone knows exactly what happened," Connie Sacco was quoting as saying by the Himalayan Times. Nepali police and army and as well member of the U.S. embassy and three private firms conducted a joint search.

“In the last three weeks we have been busy conducting a new 15-man search of primitive villages in Nepal, and distributing posters to thousands of people through a group of benevolent doctors from Colorado who are treating thousands of Langtang locals," her parents wrote on their daughter's website on Oct.21.
