More than three months after Peggy McGuire, a nurse, vanished, investigators still don’t know what happened to the young mother. However, family members are not keeping silent. They’ve been very active on the Bring Peggy Home!!! Facebook page–including the missing woman’s own mother who, based on her recent post, believes something bad has happened to her daughter:
The person(s) responsible are not coming forward! I don’t know how you can live with yourself knowing you got rid of my daughter! Pray nothing like this ever happens to one of your loved ones! It’s a feeling of hurt and emptiness wondering if you will ever see her again and not knowing where she’s at! I pray everyday all day someone will come forward! I don’t know why you just didn’t let her go on with her life! You took everything and what do you got nothing! cause you let it control you! God will forgive you but you will live with this thru eternity!!–Betty Davis, Peggy’s mother

The Details
McGuire was last seen dropping her young son off at school outside Eufaula, Oklahoma.
A grainy image captured the next morning around 5:00 a.m. shows Peggy’s Toyota truck being parked at T&J’s Ice House, a rural bar along Highway 9. A dark, unidentified figure can be seen walking away from the vehicle through an early morning storm.
That’s when the trail appears to go cold, leaving family, friends and thousands of complete strangers painfully anxious.
“The Sheriff’s Department is continuing this investigation and have spoke to numerous people as information is discovered. At this point we unfortunately do not have any further information to disclose. Anyone with information regarding this case needs to contact the Sheriff’s Department day or night,” duties wrote on the official McIntosh County Sheriff’s Office official Facebook Page.
The Investigation
Witnesses reported seeing a man leaving Peggy’s vehicle and walking away from it before it was discovered during the search for her.
Forensic evidence has been retrieved from the vehicle and sent for analysis, but no reports have indicated whether or not any of the evidence was relevant to the disappearance of the Oklahoma woman.
The last person to reportedly speak with Peggy was her stepfather, whom she phoned that morning on her way to the home she shares with her son and the boy’s father. She was going to call him back shortly with the measurements for a new deck, her mother said.
Authorities in Oklahoma have not yet addressed whether or not they suspect foul play in Peggy’s disappearance. However, it’s been confirmed that search warrants are being issued in the search for her this week, indicating that detectives are working in at least one specific direction.
