🚨 Missing Woman – Emma Fillipoff, 26 – Last Seen November 28, 2012 – Victoria, British Columbia (Cold Case)
Emma Fillipoff was last seen on the evening of November 28, 2012, near the Empress Hotel in Victoria, British Columbia. She was observed exhibiting erratic behavior and emotional distress just hours before she disappeared.
Emma’s red Mazda was later found in the Chateau Victoria parking lot, still containing her passport, laptop, clothes, pillow, library card, and personal ornaments. It is believed she had planned to travel Vancouver Island while living out of her vehicle. Prior to her disappearance, she had been staying at the Sandy Merriman Women’s Shelter, whose staff had contacted police about her sudden behavioral changes. However, officers did not follow up and advised staff to call again if her behavior worsened.
That evening, a 911 call was made reporting Emma’s erratic behavior. She was located by police at 7:17 p.m., barefoot and distraught. Officers reportedly spoke with her for 45 minutes before determining she was not a threat to herself or others and allowed her to leave. This was the last confirmed sighting of her.
