WAVERLY, IOWA – An elderly Plainfield, Iowa woman remains missing, but police haven’t given up the search.
On July 5, 2016 the Bremer County Sheriff’s Office took a report of a missing elderly female. The female, Cloris Mehman, was reported to have Alzheimer’s and frequently walks away from her residence in Plainfield while left alone and gets lost.
A search of the area immediately began. Bremer County Deputies have been assisted by numerous agencies in the attempt to locate Mehman, but have been unsuccessful to this point. All leads are being followed up on by deputies and other assisting agencies.
The BCSO is continuing their search, but strongly encourage anybody with any information in regards to Mehman’s whereabouts to contact their office at 319-352-5400 ext. 3.
I’d question the husband more, kinda weird how she is still missing. Hmmm
Did anyone bring in tracking dogs when she disappeared? She must have been walking……………
They did have dogs out the first day, but then it rained and they lost the scent.
i agree with you it has been way to long
What I don’t understand is why she was still living at home AFTER this had happened before, except last time she was found. It does seem awful coincidental that someone saw an older lady getting in a vehicle off the highway only miles from the home in the middle of the night!
Why wouldn’t she live at home. Have you ever been in one of the nursing homes. They are like being in prison. And, when they go there everyone abandons them and they just sit there waiting to die. Better to get lost while living.
I disagree. My mother has Alzheimers, and my dad left her home alone for hours, and even days, at a time while he ran errands, was hospitalized, etc. It terrified me! She went missing more than once, but always turned up quickly on her own. I was so scared that we would end up being in this situation with her. My dad finally came to his senses, and my mom is now in a nursing home. She is not abandoned and waiting to die. She is SAFE. I’m not saying a nursing home is right for every situation, but please don’t say being lost is better.
Bull Shit-You may think she is alright but she is miserable and doesn’t know why. The United States is the only country in the world where we lock our elderly people away so we don’t have to deal with them. Shame on you.
Have some compassion. This family is searching for their mother and grandmother. She has been missing for 4 weeks. Imagine how they must feel.
At least spell her name correctly!
I know of a white male 70 years old that stated he had a new girlfriend, it was around the same time this lady went missing, the Gentleman lives out of a hotel in waterloo, he is a little bit challenged, probably nothing to it but I think about it everyday!!
If you know the person’s name and where he lives, maybe you should report your feeling.
I think if she was reported missing on July 5th. It means there could have been someone around the area visiting family over the 4th of July. I think they need to canvas neighbors to see who was at their homes over the holiday.
Sad———–remains will be found at harvest season or by hunters, unless fishermen find first—–sad
