MOTHER OF INDIVIDUAL STILL MISSING AT DILLON FALLS RELEASES PUBLIC STATEMENT
The mother of the individual still missing at Dillon Falls asked the Deschutes County Sheriff's Office to release the following statement on her behalf. She asks for privacy and will not make further statements or respond to media inquiries.
MOTHER'S STATEMENT:
"It has come to my attention that there is misinformation circulating about the ongoing search and rescue operations to locate my child. I want to be clear and direct: my family and I have been in close communication with the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office and Search & Rescue teams from the very beginning. We are incredibly grateful for their support, professionalism, and unwavering commitment. The efforts of the deputies, staff, and volunteers have gone above and beyond anything we could have hoped for, and we deeply appreciate everything they are doing.
"This search is far more complex than most people realize. Many members of the public do not have full knowledge of the situation, which has led to misunderstandings and assumptions. As the mother of the missing individual, I support the approach and strategy implemented by the Sheriff’s Office and the trained Search & Rescue professionals. I trust the situation is being handled with the utmost care, expertise, and compassion.
"Out of respect for our family, I ask that people refrain from spreading false information, speculating, or interfering in this process. We especially ask that "Juan the Diver" cease and desist from making further public comments or attempting to participate in the official search. His involvement has not been part of the coordinated response, and we do not want the hard work of these trained professionals questioned or disrupted.
"Our focus remains on bringing our child home. We are not speaking to the media at any time and respectfully ask that no one contacts our immediate family. We are still in the process of notifying relatives who live outside the country, and we ask for privacy and space to navigate this unimaginable situation.
"Please continue to support the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office and the incredible people and volunteers working tirelessly on this mission. We are releasing this statement to clear the air and move forward without distraction.
"Thank you for your understanding and compassion."
—with respect,
The Mother of the Missing Individual
