Maria From Jakobsen, a 43-year-old psychologist from Frederikssund, about 45 km north-west of Copenhagen, have been missing since 26 October 2020, and was reported missing by her sister. Maria have two young children, 8 and 10 years old, and are married to a Lutheran priest in the Church of Denmark. Her phone, computer, and credit cards were left at home.
Her family have offered a reward on DKR 10,000 to those who help the police find Maria.
Familien udlover dusør: "Hvis politiet finder Maria, så er jeg ligeglad med hvordan"

On 16 November 2020 Thomas Gotthard, the husband of Maria, was arrested as being suspected having killed her, after the police had found hydrochloric acid and caustic soda in the couple's home, and internet searches for "sea depths" and "oil barrels".
Thomas Gotthard was charged for the murder of his wife, even as the body hasn't been found, on 26 April 2021.

Denmark gripped by case that echoes Agatha Christie novel ‘Murder in the Vicarage’

Parish priest stands accused of murdering wife who disappeared into thin air last October

Gotthard claims his wife left the family home in a depressed state of mind, but internet searches carried out at their home on the same day, which have been seen by TV2, would appear to suggest her departure was anything but unplanned. Gotthard allegedly searched for ‘oil barrels’, ‘sea depths’, ‘suicide’, ‘disappearance’ and ‘cleaning agents’. Furthermore, corrosive chemicals were reportedly detected near his person after his arrest on November 16. [snip] When the trial starts on October 25, prosecutors will have 16 court days in which to prove their case. Gotthard has been remanded in custody since his arrest. He has pleaded not guilty. A body is not needed in Danish law to convict somebody of murder.
