Rita-Marie Collin, a 60-year-old grandmother from Kariong, New South Wales, has been missing for two weeks after she left her home on May 5, 2023. Her family reported her disappearance when she failed to return, leaving behind her car, keys, and wallet. The circumstances surrounding her absence are particularly troubling, as she missed her husband's birthday, Mother's Day, and the birth of her granddaughter. Expert bush tracker Jake Cassar has joined the search, stating that CCTV footage indicates she may have been moving quickly before her disappearance, which raises concerns about her safety. Cassar noted that her stride appeared longer and more urgent than typical walking, suggesting she might have been trying to reach a destination or escape. Collin's daughter, Amy, emphasized that her mother was not an outdoor enthusiast and urged anyone with information to contact the police. The community is rallying together, with local volunteers and emergency services searching the rugged bushland around Kariong, but so far, no trace of Collin has been found. Authorities continue to seek public assistance in the investigation.
