This case gave me a hard time to find sth useful. There is literally nothing out there on Bridget for people to understand who she is and the circumstances of her disappearance, all info which may help to find her.
A pity because behind a missing person poster showing only a mugshot, there is for sure a lovely woman, daughter, mother, that has faced or faces difficulties and probably needs help, and she must be loved and missed. As many cases we see.
What I found strange is the mention above that it is the police that gave to her family the updated pictures. Does this mean she is estranged from her family?

Anyhow, this is what I found to hopefully help find Bridget:

IMO

she is Bridget Marie Willey from Orange TX. Burns is her married name.
With her maiden name I found a pinterest account, and then a twitter account. From her twitter, in an old post I found a cross reference to her Instagram account. Photos match.

It confirms she is a beautiful mother of two daughters born ca 2009 and 2016, last living and working in Houston. Practicing yoga. What a beautiful smile she has ! No pics with a partner, so maybe she is alone with her girls.
She was working in the past at least at a pizzeria called LittleCaesars, and at a place called Mongolian grill. She states to be a bartender. All in Houston.

Her instagram is worth looking at, it has beautiful pictures of her over the years.

I am wondering if it is LE looking actually for her, given the mugshot and the mugshot appearance which IMO speaks drugs.

What happened to Bridget ? Where are her girls ? Is she struggling due maybe to drug addiction? Why there is no MSN coverage ? I really hope she is safe and possibly just hiding for her own good reasons.

ETA: Why California is mentioned ? Does she have family there maybe?

Below all the links used to derive the above information as well as better photos of her from her SM accounts.

Thank you for taking the time to put together a fuller picture of the light that's within her if one looks close. Such a beautiful smile. I remember when this first came up, and I couldn't find anything on her, still can't looking today. I'm glad people are still looking and caring.

Bump for Bridget

Is she really missing? Or was this because she bail jumped in Harris County? (The case has since been dismissed.)

Her NamUs page has been removed.

She is really missing. I know her personally. Her family is definitely looking for her and loves her. So do her friends. She lost herself on drugs and became a shell of herself that even I couldn't recognize. My friends and I were just talking about her. California is mentioned because we were tipped off that she wanted to go to skid row. Her kids are with their grandmother, and they are doing well. The youngest girl's father was also on drugs, but is now doing well and leading a better life. He visits his child regularly. I'm so sad for her daughters, who are victims of circumstance. It breaks my heart for them. Please keep this alive for Bridget. We miss her. Pictured below is the trip she took with me to Washington and Oregon. Ruby beach. Thank you for your concern.

Sorry to read she is still missing, I wonder why her Namus page isn ‘t available anymore, made me hopeful she had been found safe :-(
