April Pease was 30 when she went missing from Bloomington, Minnesota, on March 17, 2009. She had moved to Minnesota to leave a tumultuous relationship with Cedric Marks, the father of her son, and had been staying at a women’s shelter in Bloomington with her child while rebuilding her life and addressing substance abuse issues.

Pease did not appear in court on March 20 and custody of her son was awarded to Marks three days after she was last seen. Years later, in 2019, authorities charged Cedric Marks and an accomplice, Kellee Sorensen, accusing them of abducting Pease from the shelter. Sorensen reportedly told investigators she helped locate Pease by contacting shelters and airlines, and that Marks forced Pease into his vehicle and killed her; her body has not been recovered. Charges of second-degree murder were filed in 2020, and searches for Pease’s remains have continued.

Does anyone have information about April’s movements in Bloomington in March 2009 or about shelters and contacts she might have used that week?
