Claudette Osborne — Missing since July 24, 2008

Support and awareness is growing in the Aboriginal and activist communities across Canada for the family of 22 year old Claudette Osborne who went missing this summer. Family and friends of the young mom held a vigil for Claudette on October 24, 2008 at the Winnipeg Legislative grounds. Hurt by some media reports of Claudette as a sex-trade worker, the family is determined that she is also acknowledged for her spirit, for being a sister, a friend, and a mother.
Last spotted July 24, 2008, family members and Winnipeg police have been searching for her without success and no leads. The young mother of four children was last seen at the Lincoln Hotel at 1030 McPhillips Street around 2 a.m. Suffering from health issues, drug issues, and the loss of custody of her two-week old baby, the family is extremely worried about her well being.
Claudette Osborne is Aboriginal, 5'4”, and has light brown hair, hazel green eyes and fair skin. She was last seen wearing black pin striped pants and a black v-necked t-shirt with a ruffled collar. The young mom was attempting to make changes in her life before she disappeared. The family is offering a $2,000 reward and asks that anyone with information about Claudette's whereabouts call police at 204.986.6250 or 204.986.6222.
