The Disappearance of Heather Emmalee Bush

Source: Facebook

Heather Emmalee Bush has been missing since January 15th, 2005. She was only 13 years-old at the time of her disappearance. Heather was last seen at her grandparents' house in Modesto, California. She left the residence at some point on the day of her disappearance and never returned. Heather has never been seen or heard from again. 

Heather's disappearance was classified as a runaway case from the beginning, and it remains at that status today. Details about Heather's life at the time she vanished are unknown. The events leading up to her disappearance are unknown as well. 

A flyer for Heather's missing persons' case describes her as a Caucasian female with brown hair and blue eyes. The poster also states that she has a burn mark on her abdomen and is missing the tip of her left pinky finger. Heather was approximately 4'11" and 110 pounds when she went missing, but since she was only 13 years old at the time, it's possible that she would be taller today.

In recent years, relatives of Heather have been trying to spread awareness about her disappearance on Facebook. Other than that, though, there has been very little reporting on Heather's case. News about her case appears to be nonexistent. 

Detectives in Ripon, California have agency over Heather's case. If you have any information about Heather's disappearance and/or whereabouts, please contact the Ripon Police Department at 209-599-2102.

  2. personally i believe since its a runaway case something was happening at home or she has mental health issues, and its odd she disappeared in a blink of an eye, so she could've hitchhiked but due to recent cases of murder and other gross things, so due to this she most likely had a friend or a boyfriend or girlfriend to pick her up, or worst of the worst happened if she was alone, like kidnapping or trafficking, but if she did just run away to another state or country she would've been found by the spread of news on the internet, so she most likely either cut off from the entire WORLD somehow, she's kidnapped, dead or something even monstrous happened like bigfoot but most dont believe in that...

    1. same anonymous here, but if she was still to be alive she would need a job and money but nothing links up to her if you try so maybe her boyfriend, girlfriend has the job or money for her to stay anonymous, but they would still try and ask her lover for ideas of the missing case, and most trafficking cases don't get solved half the time but it is possible if she did just cut off but it's still unlikely.
