The Cochrane RCMP and Major Crimes Unit continue their search for five-year-old Leonine O’Driscoll-Zak and 2-year-old Wyatt O’Driscoll-Zak.

The girls are believed to be with their grandmother Therese O’Driscoll (68) and aunt Alison O’Driscoll (38) all from the area of Cochrane. They were all last seen at approximately 9:30 am on Friday, March 12, 2021, at the children’s rural home near Cochrane.

Mounties have reason to believe that the O’Driscoll’s are receiving assistance to avoid apprehension and that all four missing individuals are still in Canada.

In a release from RCMP, officers warn that anyone assisting the suspects risk facing criminal charges. They say “Those assisting the O’Driscoll’s may believe they are acting in the best interests of the children, however those who assist in the commission of a criminal offence can be charged criminally with aiding and abetting.”

Mounties are urging anyone who is assisting the O’Driscoll’s in hiding the children to contact police. 

They ask that anyone with information in relation to their current whereabouts to contact the Cochrane RCMP.
