    Wow, missing 6 days in Escambia County. If the Sheriff’s helicopter were in service, she probably would have been found in a matter of hours, not days. It’s only a matter of time before we hear of a case like this with a worse outcome. Bring back the Chopper!

    That’s wonderful that she was found and is OK. Hopefully someone will intervene and make sure she takes the medications for her illnesses.
