The FB page @truthfinder2019 found stated she was from Oklahoma so I checked there for family. I did find a Selene Turner in Oklahoma in the civil court system that is the right age, but no middle name for verification (the missing woman's middle initial is "M"). That Selene's Mom passed away in Oklahoma 10+ years ago. There was a lawsuit over the death and Selene Turner petitioned the court for a lump sum payment of a structured settlement (to the lawsuit). What is interesting, is Ms. Turner, age 47 (in 2014) with 2 "dependents" according to the attached courot records, agreed to a lump sum of only $31,029 (instead of the rougnly $150,000 to be paid in March of 2029 with her signing rights away to a Transferee who is an LLC.

The court papers said she was advised to seek council before making this decision and declined, but if she is intellectually disabled, at that time could she have coerced into signing away something she shouldn't have? I've attached the court documents, perhaps an attorney here has an opinion; I think this is typical of some structured settlements, but have no experience there at all.

Again, not 100% certain this is the missing Selene Turner, just the right name, age and former area of residence.

The missing Selene has also been known with the last name Sullivan. https://www.whitepages.com/name/Selene-Turner/OK?fs=1&searchedName=Selene%20Turner&searchedLocation=Oklahoma

I'm wondering - it's been a year since her husband died. If she has some cognitive issues now (early dementia, effects of a mild stroke, or other medical issue, etc) could she have been trying to return to Oklahoma? I hope someone will think to check trains or busses from Chicago to Oklahoma City. A long shot perhaps, but she might have been trying to return to someone her mind may not realize is gone.
