The Broward Sheriff’s Office Missing Persons Unit has issued a call to the public to aid in the search for Marie Jean-Marie, a 71-year-old woman whose absence has stirred concern and action. Jean-Marie was reported missing yesterday and was last observed in the early hours around 2:30 a.m. near the 1300 block of Southwest 11th Avenue in Deerfield Beach, as per reports from Local10.
Detectives are urging anyone who might have knowledge of her whereabouts to come forward, providing a description of Jean-Marie as a woman approximately 5 feet, 4 inches in height, weighing around 160 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. She was last noted to be wearing a black and white turtleneck shirt, and gray pants. The urgency of the search is underscored by her family's statement that she predominantly speaks Creole, and has medical conditions that necessitate medication, according to information shared by the BSO.
Authorities have not yet provided specific information about the medical conditions Jean-Marie has. The BSO has not released further details at this time, but their request for public assistance remains clear, "Anyone with information regarding her whereabouts is asked to call 954-764-4357," according to a statement released by WSVN.
