Spierers Seek Information About Lauren's Disappearance

It's been 80 days since the search began for Edgemont resident Lauren Spierer. The 20-year-old junior at Indiana University has been the subject of an intense search in and around the Bloomington area, but remains missing today. Lauren's parents have maintained a steady presence in Bloomington since June 3 and continue to be involved in search efforts and following any leads that come in.

Charlene Spierer, Lauren's mother, said "Our energy and our efforts remain undiminished. We get through each day with the love and support of family, friends, acquaintances and people we don't even know. We will find Lauren." Spierer has put out a plea that anyone with information about Lauren please come forward. Lauren's father Rob added, "Any information, no matter how insignificant it may seem, could be of help. Please don't hold back. Anything you know, anything you saw, anyone you spoke to might help us find Lauren."

The Spierers said they know Lauren would be "leading the search" if one of her friends were missing. "She is kind, compassionate and full of life. Please, whoever knows something, remember what she means to you, what she would do for you and please help us," Charlene said.

Lauren is described as 4 feet, 11 inches tall and weighs 90 pounds. She has blonde hair and blue eyes. Any information should be phoned to the tipline at (812) 339-4477; e-mailed to helpfindlauren@gmail.com; or mailed anonymously to Find Lauren, PO Box 1226, Bloomington, IN 47402.
