🚹 Two Months Missing – Lilly and Jack Sullivan Last Seen May 2, 2025, in Lansdowne Station, Nova Scotia

Today, July 2, 2025, marks two months since six-year-old Lilly Sullivan and her four-year-old brother Jack vanished without a trace from their rural home on Gairloch Road in Lansdowne Station, Pictou County, Nova Scotia. What began as a frantic search through dense woods has now shifted into a prolonged and heartbreaking investigation, with no answers and no sign of the missing children.

📌 Description

On the morning of May 2, Lilly and Jack were reportedly at home with their mother, stepfather, and infant sibling. The children were last seen inside the residence sometime that morning. According to police, the adults had fallen asleep in a bedroom. When they awoke, the children were gone. The front door had been opened quietly, and the children’s boots were missing from near the entrance. A 911 call was made shortly after 10:00 a.m.

The disappearance triggered an immediate response. RCMP, local search and rescue teams, and hundreds of volunteers responded quickly. The search focused on the heavily wooded areas surrounding the property. A wide perimeter was established, and searchers braved rugged terrain, ticks, mud, and water hazards in hopes of finding any clue that could lead them to the children. Despite extensive efforts and the use of drones, dogs, helicopters, and underwater teams, the initial search failed to uncover any confirmed evidence—except for a single boot print possibly linked to one of the children.

🔍 Shift to Investigation

After several days with no sign of Lilly or Jack, the RCMP scaled back the physical search on May 6 and shifted their focus toward a major crime investigation. Surveillance footage obtained during the investigation confirmed that both children were alive and seen in public with their family on May 1. This helped investigators refine the timeline of their disappearance to a 24-hour period between the evening of May 1 and the morning of May 2.

Over the past two months, RCMP investigators have followed more than 480 tips. They’ve conducted dozens of interviews, including polygraph tests. While no one has been named a suspect or person of interest publicly, police have stated that they are exploring all possibilities, including foul play, accident, or misadventure. The children’s stepfather has publicly stated that he passed a polygraph test and remains cooperative with police.

Authorities have emphasized that there is still no evidence pointing to an abduction, and no Amber Alert was issued at the time due to the legal criteria not being met. This has sparked public debate and criticism, with many questioning why the alert system was not used in such a serious case involving young children missing under mysterious circumstances.

📱 Reward and Community Support

On June 13, 2025, the Government of Nova Scotia announced a $150,000 reward through the Major Unsolved Crimes Program for information leading to the whereabouts of Lilly and Jack. The substantial reward reflects both the gravity of the case and the province’s hope that someone may come forward with a vital piece of information.

The local community has rallied behind the family. Vigils, awareness walks, social media campaigns, and poster distribution have continued steadily for two months. Residents in Pictou County and beyond have expressed their frustration, grief, and hope through public gatherings and online forums. The case has received national media attention and remains one of the most closely watched investigations in Canada this year.

📞 How to Help

The RCMP are urging anyone with information—no matter how minor it may seem—to come forward. Investigators are particularly interested in surveillance or dashcam footage from the area between April 28 and May 2. Gairloch Road, Highway 104, and the surrounding New Glasgow region are of particular interest.

  • Pictou RCMP: 902-485-4333
  • Crime Stoppers: 1-800-222-TIPS (8477)
  • Major Unsolved Crimes Tip Line: 1-888-710-9090

👉 What You Can Do

Even if you do not live near the area, you can help by sharing Lilly and Jack’s story online. Raise awareness, post their photos, and follow updates from official sources. You never know who might recognize a detail or remember something important.

This case is far from over. The public’s help remains critical. Someone out there may hold the missing piece that brings these children home.

🚹 Deux mois de disparition – Lilly et Jack Sullivan vus pour la derniùre fois le 2 mai 2025 à Lansdowne Station, Nouvelle-Écosse

Nous sommes le 2 juillet 2025, ce qui marque deux mois depuis la disparition de Lilly Sullivan, six ans, et de son frĂšre Jack, quatre ans, de leur domicile rural sur la route Gairloch Ă  Lansdowne Station, dans le comtĂ© de Pictou, en Nouvelle-Écosse. Ce qui a commencĂ© comme une recherche dĂ©sespĂ©rĂ©e dans les bois est devenu une enquĂȘte prolongĂ©e et dĂ©chirante, sans rĂ©ponse et sans trace des enfants.

📌 Description

Le matin du 2 mai, Lilly et Jack Ă©taient Ă  la maison avec leur mĂšre, leur beau-pĂšre et leur petite sƓur. Les enfants ont Ă©tĂ© vus pour la derniĂšre fois Ă  l’intĂ©rieur de la maison. Selon les autoritĂ©s, les adultes s’étaient endormis dans une chambre. À leur rĂ©veil, les enfants n’étaient plus lĂ . La porte d’entrĂ©e avait Ă©tĂ© ouverte discrĂštement et les bottes des enfants avaient disparu. Un appel au 911 a Ă©tĂ© fait peu aprĂšs 10 h.

La disparition a dĂ©clenchĂ© une rĂ©ponse immĂ©diate. La GRC, les Ă©quipes locales de recherche et de sauvetage et des centaines de bĂ©nĂ©voles se sont mobilisĂ©s rapidement. La recherche s’est concentrĂ©e sur les bois denses entourant la propriĂ©tĂ©. Un large pĂ©rimĂštre a Ă©tĂ© Ă©tabli et les chercheurs ont affrontĂ© un terrain difficile, des tiques, de la boue et des plans d’eau, espĂ©rant trouver un indice. MalgrĂ© l’utilisation de drones, de chiens, d’hĂ©licoptĂšres et d’équipes sous-marines, aucune preuve concluante n’a Ă©tĂ© trouvĂ©e—à l’exception d’une empreinte de botte potentiellement liĂ©e aux enfants.

🔍 Passage Ă  l’enquĂȘte

AprĂšs plusieurs jours sans aucune dĂ©couverte, la GRC a rĂ©duit les recherches physiques le 6 mai et s’est concentrĂ©e sur une enquĂȘte criminelle majeure. Des vidĂ©os de surveillance ont confirmĂ© que les enfants avaient Ă©tĂ© vus en public avec leur famille le 1er mai. Cela a permis de resserrer la pĂ©riode critique Ă  moins de 24 heures entre la soirĂ©e du 1er mai et le matin du 2 mai.

Depuis, la GRC a reçu plus de 480 pistes, interrogĂ© des dizaines de personnes et effectuĂ© plusieurs tests au polygraphe. Bien qu’aucune personne n’ait Ă©tĂ© identifiĂ©e publiquement comme suspecte, la police a dĂ©clarĂ© examiner toutes les hypothĂšses : accident, fugue, ou acte criminel. Le beau-pĂšre des enfants a dĂ©clarĂ© publiquement avoir passĂ© un test au polygraphe et continuer de coopĂ©rer avec les enquĂȘteurs.

Les autoritĂ©s ont soulignĂ© qu’il n’y avait pas de preuve d’un enlĂšvement, et aucune Alerte Amber n’a Ă©tĂ© Ă©mise, ce qui a suscitĂ© une vive critique du public. Plusieurs Canadiens ont exprimĂ© leur frustration face au systĂšme d’alerte qui, selon eux, n’a pas rĂ©pondu adĂ©quatement Ă  cette situation inquiĂ©tante.

📱 RĂ©compense et soutien communautaire

Le 13 juin 2025, le gouvernement de la Nouvelle-Écosse a annoncĂ© une rĂ©compense de 150 000 $ par l’entremise du Programme des crimes majeurs non rĂ©solus. Cette somme considĂ©rable reflĂšte l’urgence et l’espoir que quelqu’un dĂ©tienne une information cruciale.

La communautĂ© locale continue d’apporter son soutien. Des veillĂ©es, des marches, des campagnes sur les rĂ©seaux sociaux et la diffusion d’affiches se poursuivent depuis deux mois. L’affaire est dĂ©sormais connue Ă  l’échelle nationale et est considĂ©rĂ©e comme l’une des plus surveillĂ©es au pays cette annĂ©e.

📞 Comment aider

La GRC demande Ă  toute personne ayant des informations, mĂȘme mineures, de se manifester. Des images de surveillance ou des vidĂ©os de tableau de bord prises entre le 28 avril et le 2 mai dans la rĂ©gion de Gairloch Road ou de New Glasgow sont particuliĂšrement recherchĂ©es.

  • GRC de Pictou : 902-485-4333
  • Échec au crime : 1-800-222-TIPS (8477)
  • Ligne des crimes majeurs non rĂ©solus : 1-888-710-9090

👉 Ce que vous pouvez faire

MĂȘme si vous n’habitez pas dans la rĂ©gion, vous pouvez aider en partageant l’histoire de Lilly et Jack. Publiez leurs photos, suivez les mises Ă  jour officielles et restez vigilants. Un dĂ©tail pourrait tout changer.

Cette affaire est loin d’ĂȘtre terminĂ©e. L’aide du public reste essentielle. Quelqu’un dĂ©tient peut-ĂȘtre la clĂ© qui permettra de retrouver ces enfants.
