Pamel Fillier’s 16-year-old daughter, Hilary Bonnell, hasn’t been seen or heard from since early Saturday morning. With each passing day, the physically, mentally and emotionally exhausted mother becomes more certain that this isn’t simply a case of a teenage runaway.
Bonnell was last spotted just after 7 a.m. Saturday on a video surveillance camera at the Four D’s convenience store in her home community of Esgenoopetitj First Nation after attending a house party during the night.
The last communication anybody had with her though, a chilling text message sent to her first cousin later Saturday morning, has Fillier convinced that her daughter is in immediate danger.
According to Bonnell’s family and the cousin who received the text, the missing teen indicated that she was scared and wanted to get away from wherever she was.
Fillier said her daughter, like many teenage girls, is constantly texting her friends and family to maintain a line of communication.
She said Bonnell’s cellphone likely either ran out of batteries or was turned off after that last message because all attempts to reach her thereafter were unsuccessful.
“I’m drained, empty, frustrated, I think I’m ready to snap and go on some wild rampage,” said Fillier.
“She better come home safely, for the sake of the person that’s doing this to my daughter … that girl is my world.”
Fillier said that her daughter never had any reason to run away from home, noting that the two of them had an extremely open relationship and that Bonnell, no matter where she was, always kept her mother up-to-date about her location and when she’d be home.
“I’m not a mother to run away from; that little girl asks for something and she’s got it — she’s my diamond,” she said.
