Just saw her jeep on falls of neuse headed south. Called johnston county sheriff with the info. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3070/2681049510_968bb674a3.jpg?v=0

sorry about the photo quality, i only had my cellphone camera.

Sounds like this story still has the potential for a happy ending. Hopefully her car is found in the parking lot of a treatment center and not in a ditch.

Found this on another web site...

Her mom says Kelli called one of her friends the evening she was last seen and said the following: "She said, 'Chrissy, I need for you to call Clint. I've relapsed. I love Clint and Taylor, and I'm not coming home," Whealton said.

According to her mom, Kelli had struggled years ago with an addiction to prescription medication and had at one point quit her job while going through a rehab program.

Cathy Whealton thought her daughter was doing well, but now, there are fears, triggered by that phone call, that Kelli may have been having problems again.

Kelli's cell phone has been off since Saturday and she hasn't used her debit card since then either, her family says. Her husband, Clint, is extremely distraught, Whealton says. "She adores her husband. He is a good, good man."

Investigators aren't saying much -- they are dealing with this as a missing person

Oh gosh folks! Be careful what you say or the "sophisticated ladies" of Cary will descend on you like banshees screeching "abuse" & "show some respect"! This poor gal needs to be hunted for in Johnston & Wake & surrounding counties... quick! Sounds like she mentioned some "trouble" to her family which would motivate LE in... well, you know the special lil place... Hope she's found alive & well but it sounds grim now.

A co-worker of mine said that she had seen the car and the license plate of the this missing woman in the Lillington Area. She called the JCSD and they didn't seem to want to take her information. This person is a very honest person, she would not have called them if she had not thought it to be important. Are they really looking for this woman or not? Maybe if she were from Cary we could get someone interested in the Nurse.
