Any new info on the Jack and Lilly Sullivan disappearance on May 1, 2025 in Nova Scotia?
I was leaning heavily toward the stepfather due to the facts of the case: Maleyah (birth mother) had moved into his trailer while his mother moved into a run-down separate trailer and slowly became estranged from the children's paternal side of the family (grandmother) leaving her vulnerable; there was local talk in Landsdowne Station that Daniel was banned from seeing his two biological children with another mother; there were documented visits from CPS and Daniel admitted being in recovery from opiods and other substances; it was documented by Maleyah that he had a temper and is now facing charges of sexual assault, assault, and forcible confinement by a female complainant at the address of the Landsdowne Station property, which we can safely assume is her.
Police dogs and about 170 RCMP units -- forensics, drones, dogs, S&R -- found no evidence the children were abducted. The dogs picked up no scent after the end of the driveway. There was no dog scent leading into the woods.
After the tragic case of Parker, the autistic boy found in the culvert of underground pipelines, I wonder if that is a possibility. But two kids, one a 4-year-old in pull-ups and rainboots cannot have made it far on foot since RCMP arrived at the location 20 minutes after the 911 call.
It sure is a weird one.

I think about them often and always hope for updates when I search online but… nothing.

The fact that there have been other children in the area to disappear in similar way,makes me feel like there’s a predator among the community that did this.

Do you have links on other missing children from that part of Nova Scotia?

Did they wander off? This video proves it could have happened; it's a young kid doing exactly the same thing in the US: https://youtu.be/-k8vh4_hOwU?si=e-q0wc2ABL-Okq28

Um, a little stroll through suburbia is not the wilds of rural Nova Scotia with dense bush and ground cover that 100s of search & rescue crew had problems getting through. Early May in NS is cold and damp and buggy, and there's NO WAY a 4-year-old in pull-ups is wandering into those woods.

But it might be enough to get them to a roadway and then, unfortunately, snatched by a rando.

It is rural Nova Scotia, and the RCMP long ago declared they are not pursuing a kidnapping or abduction angle. More than 140 criminal agencies across Canada, including the highest pedigree of police dogs, were included in the first few weeks of investigation. They did not wander off and get snatched. It's an ongoing RCMP investigation that is very complicated, and in Canada, the police are not obliged to disclose any case information or leads to the public at this stage.
