I really need a change. Thanks last week we talked about Aileen Wuornos.

Remember, wow, what she was she going to say. Great story, but wow. Bailey, calm down, Aileen, poor Aileen, she's not poor, well, yeah, she had a hard, hard life, shit, so today I thought we could do a story about a

missing

person and a bunch of messages and requests I received were to cover this story and apparently it's huge in Canada. I don't know why I haven't heard of it. It seems like everyone has done it, but I hadn't heard of it, so I thought, hey, let's talk about it and maybe I don't know, maybe someone has.

I've seen her something I don't know I'm sinking and I'm doing it again okay I'll shut up I'll stop rambling and let's get into it today we're going to talk about Emma Filippov now Emma just seemed to disappear and disappear into thin air she's been

missing

her Emma lived in Perth Ontario but always wanted to live out west and move to Victoria, British Columbia in the fall of 2011 Emma was 25 and at the time she didn't have any, but she thought, you know what? I'm just going to move because she always wanted to and it was like one of those now never kind of deals she didn't have kids she wasn't married why not Emma's plan was to figure it out once she got there and she told a friend She had a feeling something amazing was going to happen while she was in Victoria, so once she moved to Victoria, Emma would end up moving in with a childhood friend and her partner for a few months. and after a few months, Emma stayed in the same apartment complex, but she moved to another unit in the same building.

I guess she really liked it in the winter of 2011. Emma ended up getting a job as a barista at a coffee shop, but that didn't really last long for her as time passed Emma ended up just I don't know she was more of a free spirit, I really didn't. She liked being tied down to no

where

and when she left work she ended up moving in with another friend for a few months and they ended up living in a hotel called Hotel 760 and Emma also got a job cleaning rooms there, but over time Emma wished she had more of a free spirit and I would end up going

where

ver I wanted.

Some nights she told herself that she would like to sleep in the forest, but she slept like in a tree, in the trunk of a tree, you know, or the arm of the tree like a big tree, hugging trees, she even lived in a boat like a spell at home for a while and she was free to come and go as she pleased. I think it's great too from February to November 2012. Emma was staying at a shelter, a women's shelter called the Sandy Merriman shelter and she usually did this for like a month at a time or when she really needed a place to stay and then on 2012, Emma got a seasonal job at an inner harbor seafood restaurant that Eyrie called red fish, blue fish and worked there until October 31, 2012 and was then expected to return.

In February

2013

, as if already locked down, she was going to return, so while living in Victoria, Emma communicated with her friends and family back home by making occasional phone calls, especially during the Christmas season or just during the holidays, and then also. she wrote emails and apparently, according to friends and family, they were like poetic, optimistic emails, you know, at the time Emma didn't tell her friends or her family that she was staying in a shelter, maybe she just didn't want to that no one would worry. I'm not too sure about her, I guess I shouldn't make assumptions, but she didn't tell anyone, but it was said that Emma enjoyed spending time with members of the homeless community, with boat owners and artists in the Inner Harbor. and With street artists in the city, she made many friends from different backgrounds and many of them would describe her as a free-spirited, creative, adventurous, soft-spoken, very sensitive to people and brave person.

Sometimes they think how people would describe me, but. So I don't want to know either, it was also said that Emma preferred nature to city life, you could find her walking barefoot, oh, but you know, she just enjoyed being free. I think we all know someone like that, right, but me? I don't doubt that we all know someone like that? Let's talk about that? Do we know anyone? The summer of 2012, friends said that Emma was looking for a purer lifestyle, that is, she stopped drinking, she stopped smoking cigarettes and then she also stopped drinking coffee and sugar.

Also, Emma was vegan and was slowly starting to eliminate any type of junk food, not that she was eating junk. She would like to know the things that contain all that garbage. GMO. You know she wanted to. to eat naturally, they came to the end of summer, she ate less and less and drank a ton of water daily and then her friends said she had lost a lot of weight and described her as becoming like a monk when it came to her socialization and feeding. habits in June or July 2012 Emma bought a van with the intention of living in it and traveling from one place to another.

Emma was very excited about the adventure and independence the van would eventually bring her, even though it became a financial burden on them. it had been towed three times it had car problems truck problems it had truck problems and it just wasn't what she thought it was going to be, which was a bummer, she told herself before Emma disappeared that she was actually asking for a cheap mechanic As winter approached, Emma seemed unsure of where to go and what she should do with herself during the winter months. um, you know, I mean, it's cold, hey, you know, she can't sleep outside, she started distancing herself from others and her friends, but her friends would say she started to become very fearful and withdrawn, but also a little paranoid.

In mid-November, Emma told a friend that she was leaving Victoria and possibly heading to Salt Spring Island in British Columbia. Other friends were told that she was going to sail on a boat to Mexico or that she was heading to San Juan with a man she barely knew or that she was moving to California, moving to Costa Rica, traveling to Japan with her father living outside the city. net somewhere in the woods and she also told a friend that she would surprise her family by returning home to Perth, Ontario, so she kept telling people different stories about where she was going and what her plan was.

It's obvious, maybe she didn't really have a plan or she had too many. plans and didn't know which one she wanted to go with. There were early warning signs that Emma may have been privately suffering from mental health problems since the age of eleven. A childhood friend of Emma's said she often saw Emma obsessively organizing. patterns using objects like feathers, shells, rocks and even food, and that same friend actually contacted Emma's father in concern after she woke up one night and found Emma outside in a state of euphoria, she was high on the grass like on a hill and she was just looking at the stars so this friend she was staying with sees Emma and this is worrying because she's not acting like herself so she goes over and calls her dad.

Emma's father the next day. Emma's father actually. He approached Emma and offered to pay for her to fly home, but when Emma found out that they had contacted her father first, she actually became very upset and insisted that she would be fine on her own. I don't want her to not want her help. Emma's father at this time did not tell Emma's mother about the incident. He didn't tell her anything until later. Now Emma's mom and dad would end up divorcing later. Her name is. She and Shelley's mom Emma said that if she had known about this first incident, when she received the phone call, she would have bolted immediately, but since it wasn't mentioned to her, she got me seed, according to three different friends.

Emma had been experiencing ongoing stress due to feeling harassed by someone she had a bad experience with years ago in British Columbia in 2009, that's where Emma was studying culinary arts, unfortunately, although Emma didn't give any details or mention. These stalkers or stalkers name her friends and also Emma had a diary and she didn't even mention this person's name in her diary. It's so weird that a roommate would say that Emma would tell her that she wanted to avoid social situations where she had to interact with any type of man, which would be the main reason she decided not to stay in a co-ed shelter. .

She only stayed in women's shelters whenever this roommate asked Emma if she wanted to. Don't know. Go to a party or just hang out somewhere and if there are men there, she wouldn't do it, based on what her friends said, those are things. Emma wasn't always like this. Something must have happened. You know, I've been here for two weeks. Emma was disappearing, a friend said they were driving by the shelter and they saw Emma outside looking cold and wet and she was standing there motionless and Emma was like staring at a bunch of birds, so this person saw her and they just noticed that .

I thought it was strange, but they were driving so it's not like they stopped and asked how she was doing at the shelter Emma was staying with the staff there. They also said they noticed signs of paranoia and depression and that Emma kept the curtains closed. times and was discovered frantically moving furniture from the shelter to the sidewalk and also across the street because she claimed Emma claimed they were making too much noise and talking to her, because of all this, the shelter staff called the police to do Once or to request a mental health check, staff on the phone had explained the situation to police, such as what was happening, and police told staff to call back if they noticed any more strange behavior with Emma, but they didn't go out and do it. a check or something, so the staff was fine.

I guess if we notice something we'll call again. The staff did not call Emma's parents because of privacy laws, like she is 25 years old, they did not call her parents the night of November 23rd. In fact, she made a series of phone calls to her mother. Shellie's mom assured Emma that she was going to get a ticket and come see Emma and then they could both go home, you know, but Emma would call back hours later or the next day and tell her mom that do not go out. I'll stay here in Victoria to figure things out on my own and I'll be fine, don't come and then she would call him back and say, Okay, you can come and she would call him back and say no, don't come, like if it kept going around and Emma just couldn't decide what to do and this went on for days, this going around like, well, yeah, come on, okay, no. don't come, yes, come, no, no, so at that time Emma's mother, Shelley, didn't know where Emma was staying and she was getting more and more worried, very worried about her daughter and didn't really know how to get in touch. contact. with her, so he decided to call back the number that appeared on the phone that was on display, so he calls this number thinking that Emma was probably staying with a friend, when someone answered, he asked her what this place is and she realizes that Emma has been living like in a women's shelter on and off since the winter of 2011.

I was talking to the staff about this and Emma's mother was completely shocked because she had no idea that Emma's last call to his mother went on the morning of November 28. and she told her mom quote her don't come mom today no end of quote Shellie Emma's mom said that there was a noticeable change in Emma's voice which worried her a lot, so I guess this is like if you only knew I think any of us would do this. Shellie Emma's mom was talking to other family members saying what was going on and how worried she was about Emma.

Shelley said some family members told her not to worry, she's an adult, we needed to respect Emma's independence, she's 25 years old. Don't worry, she'll figure it out, but Shelley knew something deep down wasn't right, you know? So Shelley decided to put everything on hold and took a flight that same afternoon to go find orless go see. Emma according to witnesses Emma returned to the shelter around 6:00 p.m. That night and she told a staff member that her mother was on her way, the staff member said she became visibly upset and anxious and then she stormed out of the shelter.

Another resident had run after Emma outside her but was unable to catch up with her. Shelley arrived at the shelter around 11:00 p.m. and that's when she learned that Emma didn't claim her bed that night and Shelley had no idea where Emma was. And at that time no one knew where she was, they had no way to contact her, so shortly after midnight, the shelter staff called the police to report Emma as a missing person. Let's break it down now as a timeline because that was the last time anyone saw her. like what happened to her on Tuesday, November 20 let's go back now that was like the summary now this is like the timeline okay cool I look scary because I feel a little scary timeline and sightings 20 of November Emma visits the YMCA to take out As a member, there is surveillance video that shows her entering and leaving the building four times in a 14-minute period.

Emma seems very nervous. You can see her looking through the glass doors, as if she is waiting for someone or she is hiding. someone or something some think she has something in her hands like a cell phone or an iPhone but others suspect she is simply fiddling with her fingers. You know, Wednesday, November 28, this is the day Emma disappears at 4:30 a.m. m. Emma. she calls her mom changing her mind last time saying date don't come mom not today Shelly tells Emma that she won't be flying to Victoria but she decides to take her first flight that afternoon at 7am. m.

Emma goes to Chateau Victoria, which is a hotel and Ella gets very angry because she finds out that there is a notice on her truck that says she needs to move the truck and if she doesn't it will be towed, so Emma went in and asked a member of staff if he could move. the van another day and they said yes but they were working on it you know and there is surveillance of that too 8:23 am Emma is captured on surveillance video at the 7-eleven store and that's where she uses her debit cards that she bought one $200 prepaid credit card she was wearing a beige winter jacket, camouflage pants, she had several bags with her, one over her shoulder, she had an orange bag that would be like her main bag, you know, like the purse or the purse that she has all your everyday nonsense and her wallet, phone cards, candy wrappers, there are always crumbs at the bottom of the bag, no one knows why it's weird, but she has the orange bag with her, she's fine and you can see it in the pictures see looking out the window. she again she looks very nervous about something, she's just standing there, like she's hesitant to go out, it's very strange at 10 a.m. a friend was on the bus when this friend looks out the window and sees Emma standing on the curb a stone's throw away on the busy street at this point she was wearing a light colored puffy coat her hoodie was put on her head she was carrying plastic bags in each hand and then she also had more bags on her shoulder and on her chest, so this friend was on the bus and they see Emma, ​​so they get off and approach Emma asking her Like you need help, are you okay? and Emma just shook her head, no, but she was standing there motionless and it was strange, so the friend stood there for a while asking do you need help, what are you doing, like trying to get some kind of answer from her, but she didn't get any worse attachment from Emma so she decided to leave which Early in the afternoon a friend saw Emma at a local soup kitchen and this friend also approached Emma and I told her no He felt fine and couldn't speak.

This friend said that they asked her if Emma needed a hug, you know, yeah, I'm not feeling well and then your friend says, oh, do you need a hug? That's how they had asked Emma, ​​but instead , Emma just put that horrible expression on her face and said no, after 1:00 p.m. At some point, two people reported seeing Emma on Douglas Street at some point in the afternoon and were so concerned by Emma's strange behavior of walking up and down the street looking lost and confused that they immediately called the police. , who took the report; It's unclear whether police would actually follow up. with that call, but they would be the first to call 911.

There was another report from a witness who said they saw Emma walking downtown with an older man, no description was given of this older man or it was simply provided that he was a sighting at 554 p.m. Emma uses her debit card to purchase I'm a cell phone at the same 7-eleven where she purchased the prepaid credit card. The video surveillance shows her paying for the phone, then she stays in the store by the doors and again appears nervous while as if looking outside as if there is someone out there, as if she is afraid of him, afraid to leave or just trying to avoid someone The cell phone she bought at that 7-eleven store never actually activated at 6:00 p.m.

Emma goes to the shelter Witnesses at the shelter reported that Emma became very anxious and upset when she told a staff member that her mother was on the way and that's when she stormed out. 6:10 a taxi driver picks up Emma near the shelter and she asked him to take her to the airport and suddenly she changes her mind. Emma tells the driver that she can't afford the $60 taxi ride and she asked the taxi driver to drop her off exactly where she was picked up at that time, she told herself. that Emma had between two thousand and three thousand dollars in her bank account and that she had also just bought that prepaid credit card.

She remembers two hundred dollars, so technically she had money, but she wasn't sure what it was. Yes, when the taxi driver stopped to drop her off, Emma asked the driver if she could sit in the taxi for a while and he was like, "okay, yeah, okay" and the driver was saying that she was acting very strange. and that she became very anxious and paranoid when she heard the dispatch radio ringing. Emma had asked the taxi driver why the noise was coming out of that and at 6:15 an acquaintance of Emma's saw her standing barefoot on the corner, she looked disoriented and it seemed like she couldn't cross the street, he had asked her if she was looking for someone. or if someone was following her just because of how she was acting, like he said she was acting very paranoid.

Emma doesn't say much, but she keeps looking around her as if she were sketching, but she ended up asking. That's when she asked Emma how are you doing where you're going and that's when Emma got a little irritated and all these questions were making her uncomfortable so she told her that she was going to walk alone at 7 p.m. this acquaintance walks into a nearby restaurant and calls the police and waits until they arrive, then this friend really thought something was wrong with her and went to call the police at 7:15 p.m. The police find Emma barefoot, she holds her shoes, and two police officers evaluate her for 45 minutes according to police notes.

At no point did Emma contact the police, instead she would give him one word answers or simply nod her head yes or no or shake it. know and at 8:00 p.m. the police decide that she is not a threat to herself or anyone else and watch her walk away from her. This is the last confirmed sighting of Emma. The identity of the two officers was protected by privacy laws and details of the conversation have not been revealed. Shelley's mother Emma. I submitted a Freedom information request in May 2015, but she was denied by the police department for no reason.

Emma's mother wants to know exactly what happened, what she said, where she said she was going, you know, just information, some clues, I think. The police department is trying to cover her tracks to stay out of trouble. Why didn't they take her somewhere? No, I do not know. I can't make assumptions. I have to stop doing that after Emma disappeared. November 29, 2012 Chateau Victoria, the hotel where Emma had left her van. They had arranged for a towing company to come pick up Emma's truck. Police find it in the tow truck parking lot hours later and it contains almost all of her possessions, including her passport, a laptop, a camera, and a recently borrowed diary.

The library books, the police tow them to the law, instead, on November 29, Shelley returns to the shelter during each shift change and that is when she is able to talk to people and discover that Emma had become depressed and he had possibly committed suicide, which had been growing more and more. She became more paranoid, erratic and fearful in the last two weeks or the two weeks before she disappeared, between the end of November and December 2, until the reports of witnesses who claimed to have seen Emma, ​​but were not confirmed. . On December 5 at 11:17 a.m. the $200 prepaid credit card.

Emma bought it marked for use at a gas station, that's great news since she is using this credit card. I mean, I already am, so they think it has to be Emma, ​​so they go and check it out and it was. Instead, Emma was a man who said he had found the card on the side of the road. This man was taken to the police station for questioning and that's where they would actually release him because he passed the polygraph test and they just felt. As if he wasn't the guy, Shelley said that this man would call her on three different occasions and told her that he was drinking daily at the time and that she was too drunk to remember that night when she found him, she knew it. it was still sealed and I was sure he waited about a week to use it to buy a carton of cigarettes.

He still claims that he can only guess where he might have found the card, but he wasn't really sure that that sucks in May 2014 in gasoline. city ​​I feel like when a word is too easy it's a trap and it's never really how you say British Columbia what appeared to be an irritated man was captured on surveillance at a clothing store in downtown Vancouver with a crumpled missing person sign now guess what a missing person poster this is Emma they put posters on a missing person poster and I had Emma's picture on it and they put it everywhere so this man that you see on surveillance seems to be irritated agitated grumpy very grumpy and he's got on His hand held a crumpled piece of paper and it was the missing persons poster for Emma Wright, who claimed that Mo was his girlfriend and just wanted to be left alone.

The footage is grainy and shows a man in a green shirt with a noticeable limp and flame tattoos on his arm. Now no one has come forward to help identify this man. They don't know who he is. I feel a personal opinion that this man may have been involved in the situation. Who is this guy? Because? Would you remove that sign? I mean, there could be logical reasons, but come on, you know it anyway, but this guy has never been identified after Emma's disappearance. A search team - friends, family, volunteers - had searched Victoria and communities on Vancouver Island.

They have searched parks and trails. smaller islands anywhere and everywhere, eventually the target area expanded to include mainland British Columbia and locations in Canada and the U.S. I know it was everywhere. I feel like why did I miss this, then they were trying to post it everywhere, like you saw this. Girl, they too the family had hired a private investigator, this private investigator had worked on the case for a year, but they couldn't locate Emma and they just hit one dead end after another, several psychics and mediums provided information, but Emma Emma yes. Still not found, there were several unknown sightings at Fernwood Square Old Stream Park and in the Inner Harbor.

Several witnesses had reported that her missing person sign had been torn off in downtown Eastside. A witness said they thought they saw Emma tearing down her own sign. from the wall, but it was confirmed whether it was her or not, yes, so we're not even sure if it was her staff at a hunting or fishing store, she reported that a woman who looked like Emma had come in and asked how to disappear . the working guy, how do you disappear?, said she had a stalker who followed her from Ontario to Victoria and then to Vancouver to break up in early 2014.

A hitchhiker matching Emma's description was seen on Highway 3 near the family farm. The second sighting was. up in the slogan Slow Valley may be about 30 minutes from where another family member lived these sightings remain indifferent so when in 2018 this took place in

2013

yeah five years later gang so in 2018 it presented a new witness. I know, five years later, now this new one. The witness was a man who said he was on his way to work, he was driving to the right, he was starting a new job and had to get there pretty early, so it was around 5:00am. m., he said, and it was November 29, 2012, he said.

He saw a young woman running fromback and forth on the side of the road, he said she seemed to be in danger, so he stopped and asked her if she needed a ride or if the man would help her, but this lady, this girl gets in his car. He noticed that she wasn't wearing shoes and that she was soaked as if she had been walking all night when he got in the car and asked if he could take her to Colwood to visit a girlfriend and since he didn't want to be there, he was late for work and told her he could. get her a little closer to Cole, but not get her there, so he'd like to get her a little further down the road, but not all the way, after driving for five minutes while driving. in the direction she was going to take her, she stops and leaves her next to a 24-hour gas station.

He said that the moment she got out of the car, his behavior reverted to paranoia and he darted back and forth in the street before finally taking off in the direction of: This guy didn't know who he'd picked up that morning until much later. of the incident occurring. I mean, obviously, he showed up almost six years later, in June of 2018. I mean, I'm trying. To think like you don't know but look at me I didn't even know about the story so it may happen anyway but he contacted the police who then told him to contact Crimestoppers and tell them about the interaction with Emma when she realized that.

There was no follow up on this advice, she contacted Emma. mother herself and a long time advocate in finding Emma, ​​this lady's name was Kimberly, yes she was like the boss of this group of Search for Emma. I don't want to make it seem like she doesn't like just a search party because she's doing so much more, but she's fine anyway, so he contacts Emma's mom and Kimberly and Kimberly. She had interviewed him on Lamed for a podcast and she launched the podcasts in November 2019 and it's called Search for Emma Phillip Phillip. I'll link it. below if you want to listen to it it's actually very interesting and currently it's where this story hasn't been seen in Emma there have been a lot of sightings but again they're mostly unconfirmed yeah.

They're not confirmed, but I think this guy who was the driver at least lets people know that like if she was there on November 29th, you know she could still be alive, she could still be alive, we don't know, we don't know. We know, okay? With information on Emma's whereabouts she is asked to contact the Victoria Police non-emergency line or you can contact Crime Stoppers and inform them as well. I'm going to put the numbers in the description box and then also the pin comment. I just need to verify that I have them just before I express them and that my friends it is a story about Emma Phillip Phillip off Phillip off very interesting story it was very big it is still considered a pretty big story because there is video surveillance of it from Emma just looking Very worried, Scared or paranoid, many people think that she may have had a stalker and that stalker was following her.

It sounds like it's a personal opinion, but it sounds like she has some kind of mental illness. She was struggling with what was right and maybe because she wasn't being treated she was just getting progressively worse. I'm also not a doctor or anything and I shouldn't be an armchair expert, who knows, because I was reading a story the other day and I should have remembered his name, but this man had a mental illness that was untreated and had some kind of nervous breakdown and they found him like 20 years later he was still alive I had no idea how he got there he was on the other side of the country Oh it was fascinating because I had never heard a story like that, very vague because I can't remember the details right now , but I just thought, oh, okay, this happens more often.

I don't know, I'll have to investigate. I'm very curious how often this happens and if people are found when they have some kind of nervous breakdown, they change their name and anyway, I don't know, but if this is the case with Emma, ​​then maybe is still alive out there. somewhere and if they see her or have seen her, contact them. I hope that's the case, you know or it's the other one, yeah, you know, let me know her thoughts below. I love hearing them as theories and what they think. I like it, I appreciate it, I like to understand what you guys are thinking, you know, sometimes your brains are good, let's use them to use them, let's use them to use, okay, wow, that's a great motivational quote, oh my God, okay anyway, thank you very much. for hanging out with me today I hope you have a wonderful day ahead, please be safe, make decisions, stay inside, stay safe, but other than that I would love to know who you want me to talk about next week.

I love you. And I appreciate you guys being safe out there and I'll see you later, huh.
