Mystery of missing mom-of-two, 31, who vanished seven months ago after haunting discovery made
A CHILLING discovery has reportedly been made linked to the disappearance of a mother-of-two who vanished seven months ago, family members say.
Relatives of Cristi Ruso, 31, say bags of her clothes were found on the side of a road a few months after she vanished, according to CBS6.
Family and friends of Ruso have organized many searches with the help of the Jasper County Sheriff's Office.
"I'm waiting on a phone call. She would call me every week, and that hadn't happened in six months."
A $500 reward was initially offered for any tips that would lead to Ruso's discovery.
Now, with the help of community donations, the reward is sitting at $11,000.
"I'm just overwhelmed with how this community has come together," said another aunt Debora Williams.
"And the money that's been raised for reward, leading to you know, finding Cristi, appreciate all the people and hopefully you know, we'll get some answers soon from our law enforcement."
Jasper county deputy Scotty Duncan still encourages anyone with information to come forward after seven months.
"We're following every lead," Duncan told 12 News.
"Any type of credible information that anybody might have, contact the sheriff. We're turning over every rock and doing everything we can."
Ruso is described as a white female who stands at 5 feet 3 inches tall and weighs around 180 pounds.
