Richele Lee Bear, a 22-year-old Indigenous woman, vanished from Regina, Saskatchewan, in August 2013. Accounts differ on her last confirmed sightings: some place her leaving a Rae Street residence on August 9, while others place her at a relative’s birthday on August 20. Her family reported her missing on September 5, 2013. She was described as having brown eyes and black or brown shoulder-length hair, a heart-and-teardrop tattoo on her left calf, and scars on her forehead, left arm, and left hand.

Investigators later treated the disappearance as a homicide despite no body being found. In May 2014 a local man, Clayton Bo Eichler, was charged with first-degree murder in Richele’s case and with offering an indignity to a human body; evidence from his electronic devices reportedly included images that appeared to show a deceased Richele. Eichler pleaded guilty in September 2016 to the murders of Richele Bear and another young woman; he said he could not remember where he left Richele’s body. Her remains have not been recovered, and her mother, Michele Bear, has advocated for searches, including of a local landfill, seeking closure.

Did anyone in Regina in August 2013 see Richele or have information about where she might have been between August 9 and August 20?
