Fox News
Sarm Heslop, a British woman who was last seen on March 7 leaving a U.S. Virgin Islands bar with her American boyfriend Ryan Bane, has now been missing for 46 days.
"The boat hasn’t been searched," Heslop’s friend Vicky Mogridge-Percy noted during an appearance on the BBC Friday morning. "And that, in line with U.S. laws, that can happen. We want the boat searched." Bane reported the 41-year-old from Southampton, U.K., missing in the early morning hours of March 8. He told police he awoke at about 2:30 a.m. and found her missing from his yacht. Authorities, however, have said they could not confirm whether she had actually returned to the boat after the couple left a bar together around 10 p.m. the prior night – and Bane waited about 10 hours before reporting she may have fallen overboard to the U.S. Coast Guard.More Related News
