Distraught disabled woman, 37, keeps calling family to tell them she is lost but that she does not know where

A 37-year-old missing disabled woman from Oregon keeps calling her family to tell them she is lost but doesn’t know where she is.

Erin Nicole Thornton was last seen on December 29 at her home in Fairview, about 15 miles from Oregon.

She left her home without her belongings: her bag, medicine and extra clothes. She does not have a car and has no income of any kind.

The bizarre ordeal has been described by authorities as ‘missing under worrying circumstances’.

On Wednesday, January 1, her cell phone pinged in Battle Ground Washington, a two-mile radius from Walmart.

However, authorities indicated that she has no known friends or family in that area.

Thornton has a mental health and seizure-like medical condition that affects her mobility, memory and ability to care for herself, and is considered an “endangered” individual by the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office (MCSO).

Police said Thornton contacted her partner several times asking for help, but was unable to tell the person her whereabouts.

MCSO Deputy John Plock told DailyMail.com on Friday that the person who called Thornton is “a woman named Olivia,” and she is “cooperating and actively assisting investigators.”

When DailyMail.com contacted Olivia, she was unavailable for comment.

Thornton’s mysterious disappearance comes a month after another Oregon woman, Susan Lane-Founier, 61, went missing on Nov. 22 while walking with her two dogs.

She was found deceased by her boyfriend, James Evans, near a highway in Clackamas County, about four miles from where her truck was parked.

Her husband Michel Fournier, 71, had been charged with murder.

Evans, who was heartbroken, told KOIN 6, “I went down the path, maybe 20 yards. I saw some sail. I thought it was trash. I bent over to pick up the tarp and as I bent over and came up I saw a pair of boots attached to one leg.

“I immediately dropped the tarp, stood back, collected myself, turned around and went to the lodge and had the office call 911 immediately.

Susan’s death came less than a month after she filed for divorce from Michel, to whom she had been married for 12 years, according to KGW8.

The divorce suit filed Oct. 31 in Clackamas County Circuit Court noted that “irreconcilable differences between the parties have caused irreparable breakdown of their marriage.”

Susan, a Brightwood resident called “Phoenix” by her friends, was reported missing after failing to show up for work.

On Nov. 23, Susan’s girlfriend told police they saw her white 1992 Ford F-250 parked near the Green Canyon Way Trail, south of Welches. Susan walked her dogs there.

According to the sheriff’s office, the Clackamas County Sherriff’s Office launched a search for the missing woman and her two large Malinois mix dogs on Nov. 24.

Susan’s neighbors had expressed concern for her safety and accused Michel of being an abusive partner.

On November 24, before Susan’s body was found, Terri Hanley wrote on Facebook: ‘Phoenix feared for her and her dogs’ lives, and for her home, and the system was working against her. She was scared and struggling.”

A GoFundMe was founded ‘in search of justice and support’ for the sons of Phoenix.’
