Emily Bailey, 23, was last seen in the early hours of New Year’s Day 2022 at a residence on Weir Street North in Hamilton, Ontario, where she was living with her boyfriend. She didn’t show up for a scheduled visit with one of her two young daughters on January 10, 2022, which prompted family to report her missing.

Described as a white female between 5 feet 3 inches and 5 feet 4 inches with a slender build and shoulder-length dark hair with dyed-green highlights, Emily had an elephant tattoo on her left forearm and a Batman symbol on the outside of her right forearm. She was believed to be wearing a yellow Billabong hoodie, a long black winter coat, and carrying a light blue backpack when she vanished.

Hamilton Police treated the disappearance as suspicious and transferred the file to the Homicide Unit by March 2022; investigators say they believe Emily was the victim of foul play and that her body was disposed of. Numerous interviews and search warrants have been executed over the years, including a major search at a Stinson Street residence in May 2026 where evidence linked to the case was recovered. Her remains have not been found. If anyone knew Emily, her movements that night, or has information about where her remains might be, please come forward.
