Madeline Kingsbury missing - live: Search for Winona mother focuses near highway as final texts revealed

The last known communication from Madeline Kingsbury has been revealed as the search to find the missing Minnesota mother-of-two rumbles on into its second week.

Megan Kingsbury said that she received a final, lighthearted text message from her sister at around 8.15am on Friday 31 March.

“We were chuckling about a funny photo exchange between us, and that was the last communication with me, or with any of my family or her other friends,” she told Fox News.

Ms Kingsbury, 26, has not been seen or heard from since.

Winona Police said she and the father of her children dropped their two children off at daycare at around 8am that morning and returned home home. He told police he then left at around 10am in Ms Kingsbury’s car, returning hours later to find her gone.

A huge search has been under way to find Ms Kingsbury ever since, with over 2,000 people joining in. It’s unclear if anything has been found but Ms Kingsbury’s family urged the public not to “gossip” about any discoveries.

“If you are participating in a search party PLEASE keep any and all findings within your group and Law Enforcement,” they said.

Madeline Kingsbury’s family is continuing to lead search parties to find the missing mother-of-two – after Winona Police announced that law enforcement is scaling back searches.

In a post on the Finding Madeline Kingsbury Facebook page, the family announced search parties planned for Monday 10 April to Friday 14 April.

“THIS IS NOT AT ALL A LARGE-SCALE, POLICE LEAD SEARCH EFFORT,” the post read.

“We’re continuing to search as we did prior to the large-scale searches.”

Volunteers can sign up to join searches on the page.

This comes after police led almost 2,000 volunteers in a search to find the missing 26-year-old on Friday.

Winona Police said that because of the huge turnout of volunteers, more ground was covered more quickly than anticipated.

Now, law enforcement will focus on “targeted searches” as the investigation continues, police said.

The sister of Madeline Kingsbury has said that her family became worried when the missing mother-of-two stopped answering her phone.

Megan said that the last text she received from Madeline was at 8.15am on the day that she went missing.

“We were chuckling about a funny photo exchange between us, and that was the last communication with me, or with any of my family or her other friends,” Megan said.

Around 2,000 people joined in the search for the 26-year-old this weekend following her sudden disappearance on 31 March.

It’s unclear if anything has been found but Ms Kingsbury’s family urged the public not to “gossip” about any discoveries.

“It has come to our attention there has been some gossip about what has or has not been found by search parties. If you are participating in a search party PLEASE keep any and all findings within your group and Law Enforcement. We are all hoping and praying for answers/clues/signs/etc., but we need to let the officials do their job,” the family said in a Facebook group focused on the search for the missing mother.

“Also, please keep in the front of your mind that we are looking for a Daughter, Sister, Friend and Mother. Make sure you are displaying appropriate and empathetic behavior both on and offline. Thank you for your continued love and support. I think I speak for all of Maddi’s family and friends when I say that seeing all of the donations made and people out willing to search today was a humbling experience. We appreciate you.”

Recap: What happened to Madeline Kingsbury?

09:30 , Oliver O'Connell

Madeline Kingsbury, a 26-year-old mother of two children, was last seen on 31 March.

According to the police, Ms Kingsbury and her husband returned to their home in Winona after dropping off their kids at daycare on Friday.

The husband said he left for work in Ms Kingsbury’s van, around 10am local time, and returned later in the day only to find his wife gone.

Ms Kingsbury did not show up for work that day or respond to “numerous” calls and messages from friends and family. She also failed to pick up her children from daycare that afternoon, which the police said was “extremely out of character for her”.

No persons of interest in Madeline Kingsbury’s disappearance

01:30 , Oliver O'Connell

Winona police have said that there are currently no suspects and no persons of interest in the case.

However, they appear to be focusing on the movements of Ms Kingsbury’s minivan – and are asking for the public’s help in tracing its journeys on the day of her disappearance.

Chief Tom Williams confirmed that the vehicle is not missing and that both the van and Ms Kingsbury’s home have been searched.

Surveillance footage has captured a vehicle matching the description of the van was captured driving from the home along highways and through Winona County and Fillmore County before heading back to the house.

After the vehicle returned home, it is not believed to have gone anywhere else.

During Thursday’s press release, police refused to say who was driving the van.

“That is not information we can share at this time,” they said.

The police chief said that there is “nothing to indicate that she left the residence on foot or in another vehicle”.

The two children are safe and there does not appear to be any threat to the public, police said.

Winona police have offered scant details about the day of Madeline Kingsbury’s disappearance.

What we do know is that Ms Kingsbury and the father of her children dropped their two children – aged two and five – off at daycare at around 8am on 31 March.

At around 8.15am, the mother-of-two returned to her home.

Her whereabouts after this time remain a mystery.

She failed to show up for work – something that police said was “very unlike her” – and her cellphone, wallet, ID and the jacket she was wearing that morning were all found inside the home.

The father of her children told investigators that he left Ms Kingsbury’s home at around 10am that morning, driving off in her 2014 dark blue Chrysler Town and Country minivan.

He said that he returned later that day and found Ms Kingsbury wasn’t home.

Friends and family members tried to contact the 26-year-old that day but couldn’t get hold of her.

Again, police said this was unusual behaviour for her.

“Based on all this we believe Madeline’s disappearance is involuntary, suspicious and we’re all concerned for her safety,” said Winona Police Chief Tom Williams.

“When there is an active investigation, they do not need to disclose every detail for any number of reason.

If there is information we can share, it will be shared via the page.

“We post this information so that people can be aware but we will not post info like that anymore if people are going to harass family, friends and businesses that may be involved. And that would be a huge disservice to Maddi. It is completely inappropriate and we will not tolerate it.”
