(MPN) – The Michigan City, IN, Police Department is seeking the public’s assistance in locating a woman missing since early Sunday morning.

Twenty-nine year-old Candi Brown Morris was last seen shortly before 1:00am Sunday near Holliday Street and North Carroll Avenue in Michigan City. Her silver 2004 Pontiac Grand Am was later recovered by the MCPD in the parking lot of Three Sheets Bar and Grill on West Barker Avenue.

Candi did not show up for a probation appointment Monday morning, and her family subsequently reported her missing. One person has confirmed to MPN that the young wife and mother of three was wearing an ankle bracelet, and that police were able to track her location throughout the weekend. However, the battery in the tether is no longer active, and authorities are unable to determine her whereabouts. Candi is a receptionist for Auto Couture, on East Michigan Blvd., in Michigan City, and her friends and co-workers have been distributing her picture and information furiously on FaceBook since her disappearance over the weekend. Those close to her say she would not willingly leave behind her family, friends, job — and most of all — her three children; and her loved ones fear she is in grave danger.Christine Salzer, Founder of “Moms on a Mission,” runs a local volunteer organization for missing persons, and her team is assisting the family in their search for Candi. “Right now, we are working with Candi’s family to gather information, and provide supportive resources, as well as working to raise immediate community awareness,” Salzer told MPN. “Our focus right now is to ensure Candi’s family has every resource available – from distribution of fliers and posters to search efforts – that is available to every family with a missing person.”The Michigan City Police Department is seeking the public’s assistance with any information which may lead them to Candi’s whereabouts. The over 400 “shares” of her picture on FaceBook thus far have already generated some new information, as one Michigan City resident saw her picture on the site and contacted MCPD with new details.

“Right now, the most important thing is to continue distributing Candi’s picture as much as possible,” Salzer told MPN. “We will be releasing more information about how the community can assist in search efforts in the upcoming days, but right now, awareness is key.”

A FaceBook page has been set up to distribute information and search details with the community.

Anyone with information as to Candi Brown Morris’ whereabouts is asked to contact Detective Jason Holaway at the Michigan City, IN, Police Department, at (219) 874-3221.

MICHIGAN CITY, Ind. – Saturday friends and family in Michigan City finally got to say goodbye to Candi Brown at her funeral. The 31-year-old disappeared in August 2012 and her remains were found in May 2013.

Now her family wants to know when police are going to arrest the mother of three’s killer.

It’s been over four months since 31-year-old Candi Brown’s remains were discovered in the woods at the corner of County Line Road and Chandler Road near the town of Pines.

Brown’s family finally held a funeral Saturday.

“At least she has been able to be put to rest,” said Candi Brown’s uncle Rick Brown.

Her uncle Ricky told ABC 57 the family still cannot close this tragic chapter of their lives because police still have not caught Candi’s killer.

“We still have not got any idea who done it or the cause of death yet,” said Ricky.

ABC57 called the Michigan City Police Department to see where they are in terms of Brown’s investigation and although the lead investigator was not in, the officer on duty did tell me so far they have not made any arrests.

Ricky says police have been working around the clock to get justice for Candi Brown and her family.

“They are keeping us up on everything,” said Ricky.

But he thinks because her body took so long to locate—police are having a harder time

“With the body being out there for almost a year, through the winter, the rain and everything, I do not see how much evidence they could actually get,” said Ricky.

They just do not want this to become another unsolved case.

“I just do not want this to turn out like another Rita Risener. You know taking 20 years,” said Ricky.

Ricky is asking anyone with information to please contact the Michigan City Police Department.
