The frustration came from six areas police promised to pursue in her visit six years ago which had not been cleared, but a new case officer ensured her this week those investigative leads will be followed up.
In past visits, Horvath-Allan has taken matters into her own hands, knocking on doors to question people she was led to believe might know of the fate of her son, an experience she called at times terrifying. But police have now advised her to step back and let them handle any investigative conversations.
Charles went missing from Kelowna in 1989, when he was just 20 years old.
He had been on a 香蕉视频直播済ap year香蕉视频直播� backpacking and the investigation into his disappearance has continually failed to reach any conclusions.
Horvath-Allan believes the secret to what happened to her son begins around the old Tiny Town campsite where her son had been staying in a tent, but evidence to solve the mystery disappearance remains elusive.
