Family members of missing Hamilton woman Emily Bailey are facing new questions about what happened to her, after a post appeared on one of her social media accounts Wednesday — almost a year and half since the young mother disappeared.
The TikTok post, which now has more than 150 comments from people speculating about who it came from, features a photo of a dog and 15 seconds of the song “Cupid” by K-pop girl group Fifty Fifty.
Bailey’s mom, Lori Bevan, says she was taking her break at work when she learned about it.
“I felt really numb and thought, ‘Who would do that?'” she said Thursday. “I was at work and all of a sudden I had to go home because I was shaking.”
Bailey, a mother of two young girls, would now be 24 years old. She was last seen on New Year’s Day 2022 at the Weir Street North home where she was staying with her boyfriend, in Hamilton’s east end. Police reclassified the case from “missing person” to “homicide” in March, and searched the Weir Street home in July, but haven’t provided much information to the public on the investigation.
Bevan says police haven’t said much to her either, but says they tell her the investigation remains “very active… [Police] didn’t say ‘suspects,’ but there are people they are looking into deeply.”
