Missing Queensland woman Julie Schutt found near Streaky Bay

Missing mother of three is found after mysteriously disappearing for over a week

  • Julie Schutt went missing from South Australia on May 7
  • She was still in SA and is undergoing treatment

A South Australian mother and wife who disappeared without a trace for a week during a holiday have been found ‘wandering’ and asked for water.

Julie Schutt went missing on May 7 from a home in Streaky Bay, on the west coast of SA, sparking a desperate but unsuccessful five-day search.

On Sunday morning, SA police confirmed that the 48-year-old woman was north of the town from which she disappeared.

A member of the public, who was located northwest of Streaky Bay, called police to say they had found a person ‘wandering out of the undergrowth’ asking for water.

She was identified as the missing mother soon after.

Police reported that Ms. Schutt is currently receiving “medical treatment”.

Clifford Schutt made an emotional plea on Friday after his wife and the mother of their three boys disappeared without a trace during the road trip of a lifetime.

Oddly enough, Ms. Schutt was last seen on commercial CCTV footage walking down a street and heading out of her town.

Her husband called her disappearance “stunning.”

The couple has been married for 25 years.
