Kara Hyde, 23, was last leaving her home on Grand Blvd. around 1:30 p.m. on Dec 5. ...

[...]

Kara has been completely silent on social media since she went missing.

[...]

Going off a tip, family and friends searched for Kara in Crawford Woods without success last weekend.

[...]

Hamilton police detectives working the case sent out a department-wide email asking officers to be on the lookout for the 23-year-old.

[...]

... her many talents, LH [Kara's mother] says, have been overshadowed by intermittent substance abuse.

“I’ve been trying to help her. I’ve had her in rehab three times,” LH said.

If you have any information about where Kara Hyde is, you’re urged to call the Hamilton Police Department at (513) 868-5811.

On Monday, the Hamilton Police Department announced it was offering a $500 reward to anyone with information leading to Hyde's location. Hyde went missing on Dec. 5 after leaving her home in the 2200 block of Grand Boulevard at about 2 p.m. that day, according to a Hamilton police report.

[...]

Detectives took to social media last week asking for information about the woman’s whereabouts. Her mother, LH, pleaded for someone to come forward. On Monday, Sgt. Rich Burkhardt said no new information has been received. Burkhardt said a thorough search was conducted on Saturday by EquuSearch Midwest and police in Crawford Woods, but nothing was found.

LH said the family, searching on its own, previously found a bag of her clothes in Crawford Woods, but no other sign of Kara Hyde. That’s what prompted Saturday’s search in the same area.

[...]

Lisa Hyde said Monday the family issued a $1,000 reward for “whoever can prove where she is right now.”

Hamilton police detectives and Texas Equusearch looked for Kara last weekend in Crawford Woods. It’s the same place family and friends searched weeks ago based on a tip.

Both searches turned up nothing. Lisa says there aren’t any more searches planned because there aren’t any more leads.

[...]

Lisa believes the 23-year-old may be being held against her will; hence the urgency to find her.

Another option is tied to Kara’s history of substance abuse.

“I feel that Kara may have possibly OD’d, and if she was with someone, they may be afraid to say anything,” Lisa said.

Just a tidbit of info if you haven't already seen it - I have seen mentioned elsewhere (and verified) that an RSO ("DGH") lives nearby on Grand Blvd. and she could have passed there if she walked to the woods.

According to Hamilton Police Detective Brian Wynn, investigators have followed up on several leads, specifically some related to Hyde’s last actions on social media.

Detective Wynn said there are people who are not cooperating or speaking with investigators.

“Investigators said the family found a bag of Hyde's clothes in Crawford Woods after searching on their own. Crews said they've searched the area at least two times since the discovery and haven't found anything.

Now, new tips are leading the family about a mile away from that area.

"One of the tips involved actually seeing her at this site on or about the night she went missing,” said Lisa, Hyde’s mother. “That's got me hopeful that you know we might be going in the right direction in this search.”


Hyde's family hopes the tips will bring her home. They're getting help from experts who are trained in searching and locating missing people. Hyde’s loved ones, along with volunteers, will meet May 7 at 10 a.m. at Crawford Woods Park, then travel a short distance to the search site.”

It is not uncommon for homeless/drug addicts to live in the woods. Common around here. So that would explain her bag of clothes. The woods dwellers will leave their possessions in the woods and leave temporarily. That being said, the fact that she didn't retrieve the clothes makes me believe she is no longer alive. I believe her mom is right, she ODd and whoever was with her is afraid to say anything. I suspect she's still in those woods somewhere.

Unfourtnetly thats the most plausable explanation. People OD and their friends dumb them somewhere because the they dont want to interact with police for fear they will receive charges. If that's the case though I feel like the body wouldve turned up by now and that they wouldnt have planned out too much in an emergncy situation.

The only thing I can think of is that this time of year all the underbrush makes it easier to miss a body on the ground.
