GORGEOUS MOM DISAPPEARS FROM OWN HOME: WHERE'S ECHO?

After divorcing, Echo Lloyd moves 16 miles from her home to rural Edwards, Missouri. The property is remote. Kelsey Smith says her mother loves the quiet and begins planning renovations, cleaning up the landscaping, and deciding how to paint the house.

Kelsey visits her mother’s home with Mother’s Day gifts. Echo’s car is not in the driveway. Kelsey leaves a purple potted plant and a card asking Echo to call when she gets the gifts. Echo never does. After a week without contact, Kelsey returns.

The search for Echo Lloyd begins immediately when she does not answer the door. Kelsey walks around the home, knocking on the front and back doors, but gets no response. Echo’s car is now in the driveway. Walking around the property, Kelsey calls out for her mother but hears nothing. She notices a cracked back window and slides it open enough to climb inside.

Inside, Kelsey finds the home in disarray, which is unusual. Echo, who had OCD, kept everything in place. Her purse is under the nightstand with her wallet and ID inside. However, her car keys, pistol, and medications are missing. Kelsey reports her mother missing.
