Helene Martineau, 47, was last seen April 12, 2017, in the Jonquière borough of Saguenay, Quebec. That morning she dropped off a doctor’s note at the Jonquière hospital where she worked as an occupational therapist, was captured on surveillance at Place du Royaume about 11:30 a.m., and a neighbor reported seeing her back at her rue Montgomery residence around 12:15 p.m. Her husband reported her missing to police at about 9:00 p.m. that evening.

She is described as 5 feet 6 inches, about 134 pounds, with brown hair and greenish-blue eyes. When last seen she wore a black The North Face coat, a black toque, sport pants, grey and blue Merrell walking shoes, red square-shaped eyeglasses and small hoop earrings; she did not take her phone or wallet. The Sûreté du Québec took over the investigation as a suspected homicide. Her husband has been identified as a suspect but no charges have been laid; he has denied involvement and suggested she may have taken her own life.

Extensive searches of nearby trails, the Saguenay River and properties connected to the couple have not produced answers. If anyone knew Helene, saw her on April 12, 2017, or has information that could help, please come forward.
