RCMP Media Release Update concerning the Lily and Jack Sullivan Missing children investigation and search in Pictou County The Pictou County District RCMP, with the assistance of the Northeast Nova RCMP Major Crime Unit, continue to investigate the disappearance of the two missing siblings.

Staff Sergeant Curtis MacKinnon, Pictou County District RCMP had this to say, “We continue to work day and night on this file. Like all Nova Scotians, we want answers, and we want to know what happened to these children. We’re exploring all avenues in this missing persons investigation. We have officers from multiple disciplines dedicated to finding Lilly and Jack, including highly trained RCMP major crime and forensic investigators. Staff Sergeant MacKinnon went on to say, "To date, more than 180 tips have been received from the public, and are being followed up on. Officers have so far identified 35 people for formal interviews as part of the investigation, including community members and those closest to the children. And on May 8 and 9, the RCMP’s Underwater Recovery Team (URT) scoured bodies of water around Lansdowne Station; URT’s two-day operation didn’t uncover any evidence."

On May 2, at approximately 10 a.m., Pictou County District RCMP received a report that Lilly and Jack were missing. They were believed to have wandered away from their home on Gairloch Rd. A multi-agency search and missing persons investigation began immediately. The search, which was scaled back to specific areas on May 7, has covered 5.5 square kilometres of heavily wooded, rural terrain in the Gairloch Rd. area. It has involved up to 160 trained volunteer searchers and many others, and tens of thousands of search hours.

One of the most debated parts of this case is that no Amber Alert has been issued. RCMP said the case didn't meet the criteria for abduction.
