CA CA - Brittany Jane Adkins, 27, Fort Bragg/Ukiah, 13 May 2020

First thing: when and where did she use her EBT card (county benefits).

I work at a welfare agency in a CA county, but it's quite decentralized; each county is given autonomy to implement administration of public benefits.

i believe that EBT cards become inactive after some 180 days of no use. They can be used across CA counties and even in different states.

Food stamp eligbility must be established every six months, so the case would have closed within six months, but even if the case is closed, the benefits remain there until they get expunged (but they can be re-activated).

There's a toll free number to reset the PIN, if she had lost it. Getting a new EBT card is trickier; it's possible to reissue an EBT card from another county, but it's quite difficult and may not always work.

Sorry for rambling off a bit, the priority is to find out where and when her EBT card was last used.

Probably in one of the stores in fort Bragg. I agree though it would definitely be helpful to know for sure in the event she was elsewhere.

Is Brittany still missing?

She is still listed in NamUs as a MP. Have you seen anything that might suggest she has been found?

No, unfortunately. Just checking in. I live in the area and continue to be worried about her

Over the past year, Rafanan developed information that led to probable cause to search the rural property. Authorities obtained a search warrant, and the current residents, who have fully cooperated with law enforcement, also provided consent.

Fifteen Search and Rescue members, four Fort Bragg police officers, a Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office detective, and two cadaver dog teams spent hours combing the rugged and partially inaccessible terrain. Despite the exhaustive search, investigators found no evidence related to Adkins’ disappearance.

While the search did not uncover new evidence, police said it eliminated a possible location and answered several questions in the ongoing case.

Anyone with information regarding Adkins’ disappearance is urged to contact Special Investigator Wes Rafanan at (707) 961-2800, ext. 219.
