This is Linda’s Story: Losing my son

Linda is my eldest niece and Blayne is her firstborn. A terrible tragedy has struck her and her family. On September 21 2023 Blayne went missing. https://www.vernonmorningstar.com/local-news/warrant-executed-in-relation-to-missing-vernon-man-4985030

The whole family is distraught and Linda has been unable to work since Blayne went missing.

I’m hoping to raise enough money to pay for the house hold expenses for 6 months so it takes the burden off of her and allows for more time to heal. The Second goal would be counselling for the whole family as they are all grieving in different ways. The third goal is for funeral expenses but the timeline for that is unknown because the police haven’t found his remains .

Vernon RCMP were back at the scene of an assault investigation Wednesday night.

As many as four police cruisers were seen outside a home on 26th Avenue, near the People Place.

Units had been parked at the home on Friday and over the weekend, and Vernon RCMP said earlier this week the ongoing police presence "was to secure the property until officers could execute a search warrant in relation to an assault investigation."

While police have not publicly linked the cases, a missing person notice was issued Tuesday for Blayne Keith Ferguson, 27, who was last seen in Vernon last Thursday.

On Wednesday, they said that criminality is now suspected in the disappearance and the Serious Crimes Unit has taken over the investigation.

Posts on a social media page dedicated to finding Ferguson and tips received by Castanet indicate he may have been beaten by as many as four people.

His whereabouts and condition remain unknown.

"Criminality is suspected in the sudden disappearance," Vernon RCMP spokesperson Const. Chris Terleski said in Wednesday's press release.

Police also released images of a vehicle believed to be associated with the investigation.

The car is a 2003, blue, four-door, Toyota Echo with B.C. licence plate SJ828K.

"Investigators are specifically looking to speak to anyone who saw this vehicle, or has information about its whereabouts or activity between the afternoon of Thursday, Sept. 21 and noon on Friday, Sept. 22," said Terleski.

How do you do Christmas when you know the 4 men that brutally beat Blayne get to have Christmas dinner with their children and spouses and Blayne does not. They stole him from us. It’s hard to believe there is such evil in this world.
