The family and close associates of Rachelle Wrathmall, a woman who has been missing since early 2024, have formally appealed to the federal government in Ottawa to assist in the investigation. The case, which remains unsolved, has drawn attention due to lack of progress at the provincial level.
According to statements released by the family, they are requesting federal resources, including specialized investigative units and forensic support, to help locate Wrathmall. The appeal was made public on June 27, 2026, through a press conference in Winnipeg.
Local police have confirmed that the investigation is ongoing but have not provided new leads. The family's lawyer stated that they believe federal involvement could bring new perspectives and resources to the case.
No official response from the federal government has been reported as of June 28, 2026. The case has not been linked to any broader criminal network, and no suspects have been named.
