The Shocking Truth Revealed: Missing Woman Sarm Heslop’s Mother Believes She Was Murdered
The Suspicious Disappearance of Sarm Heslop
The British mother of missing woman Sarm Heslop has broken her public silence, saying she now believes her daughter was murdered. Heslop, 41, was last seen exiting a bar in the U.S. Virgin Islands on March 7, 2021, accompanied by her boyfriend Ryan Bane. Bane reported her disappearance from their luxury catamaran, the Siren Song, at 2:30 a.m. the next day. He claimed he woke up to find her missing from the vessel, which was moored off St. John’s island.
The Allegations Against Local Police and Bane
The couple had been residing on the catamaran, according to authorities. In an interview with a British media outlet, Sarm Heslop’s mother, 67-year-old Brenda Street, expressed her disappointment with local law enforcement and Bane, holding them accountable for not taking more decisive action in locating her daughter. “I want justice for her,” Street told The People newspaper. “I want to bring her home so I know where she is. She deserves that,” she emphasized.
Mysterious Circumstances Surrounding Heslop’s Disappearance
Heslop first encountered Ryan Bane on the dating app Tinder eight months before her sudden disappearance, as suggested by her friends. Despite exhaustive efforts, including her mother’s visit to the island to uncover more details about her missing daughter, there has been no breakthrough in the case. “There’s too many things that don’t make sense and don’t add up,” lamented Street to the newspaper.
Ongoing Investigations and Legal Response
Despite extensive search operations conducted by the U.S. Coast Guard and the ongoing scrutiny by local authorities, there has been no indication of Heslop’s whereabouts, nor has anyone been charged in connection with her disappearance. Bane’s legal representative, David Cattie, conveyed his client’s devastation in a statement to the media. “We certainly understand and empathize with her mother’s pain and frustration,” the statement read.
“Mr. Bane immediately contacted 911 upon discovering Sarm was missing,” the lawyer affirmed. Following his report, Bane cooperated with investigators from the Virgin Islands Police Department and permitted Coast Guard officers to conduct two searches of his vessel. Cattie mentioned, “Later Mr. Bane and I personally delivered all of Sarm’s possessions, including her electronic devices, to the police.”
Family and Friends’ Efforts
In a bid to gather information and updates on the case, Heslop’s loved ones have established a Facebook page. The page serves as a platform for sharing crucial details and keeping the public informed about the ongoing investigation into Sarm Heslop’s disappearance.
