(KLZA)-- More than 125 people including law enforcement and volunteers spent Thursday searching for 55-year-old Linda Dillard near Table Rock.
Dillard who lived in the Fairbury area was with friends in Pawnee County on June 16, 2021, the last time she was seen.
The Nebraska State Patrol records indicate they believe Dillard and her friends drank and smoked meth at a farmstead. A wig belonging to Dillard was located as well as clothes belonging to her during a search of that property.
Investigators were told by people who were at the farm that Dillard and a man had an argument and she left and has not been seen since. The State Patrol believes Dillard may have been the victim of a crime which led to her disappearance.
The search which could last through Saturday is focused on 6 – 700 acres east of Table Rock in and around the Table Rock State Wildlife Management Area.
The search included numerous partners from multiple states including the Brown County, Kansas Mounted Patrol and Rescue, Canine Search and Rescue teams, the University of Nebraska Department of Forensic Anthropology and Midwest Archaeological Center.
Dillards daughter, Winterstar Schaber told reporters they hope the search will help determine what happened to her mother and help bring closure for the family.
You can view interviews with Lt. Jones and Winterstar Schaber on the SUNNY 101.3 and KTNC Facebook page.
