Nova Scotia Missing Children Case: Court Documents Reveal New Details
The search for Lilly and Jack Sullivan continues in Nova Scotia, months after the siblings went missing from their rural home in Lansdowne Station on May 2, 2025. The case remains unresolved and continues to raise concern across the province.
RCMP Investigation Remains Active
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police continue to lead an extensive missing persons investigation. Officers from major crime, forensic, and search units remain involved. Police have reviewed surveillance footage, examined digital records, and conducted dozens of interviews.
Court documents reveal investigators examined phone records, financial activity, and travel routes. Officers aimed to trace movements before and after the children disappeared. The RCMP say they continue to follow every credible lead.
Search Efforts and Evidence
Search teams conducted large-scale ground searches near the family’s home. Crews used drones, dogs, and forensic tools. Despite extensive efforts, police have not found evidence confirming the children’s location.
Court records show officers recovered pieces of a pink blanket belonging to Lilly. One piece was located about one kilometre from the home. Another was found inside a garbage bag near the driveway. Investigators continue forensic testing.
Family Cooperation and Polygraph Tests
Police documents confirm family members cooperated with investigators. Several relatives completed polygraph tests. Officers reported no indications of deception during those examinations.
The RCMP stressed these tests are only one investigative tool. Police continue to treat the case as a missing persons investigation, without ruling out any scenario.
Reward and Public Appeal
The Nova Scotia government has offered a reward of up to $150,000 for information leading to answers. Officials urge anyone with relevant details, video footage, or sightings to contact police.
Community members continue to support the family. Volunteers and residents remain alert and engaged.
No Criminal Conclusion Yet
Police have not confirmed criminal involvement. They also have not ruled it out. Investigators say the case remains open and active, with new information still being assessed.
The RCMP continue to emphasize patience, accuracy, and public cooperation as the search for answers continues.
