Jessica Boyce

KEY POINTS

Boyce was last seen on March 19, driving her mother’s red Holden Rodeo ute.
Two hikers found the vehicle abandoned near Lake Chalice, in Mount Richmond Forest Park, 90 minutes west of Blenheim, on March 22, and called police.
Police are treating the 27-year-old’s disappearance as a homicide.
9 March 2020 Marlborough Police seized a black Mazda utility vehicle, which we believe is connected to Jessica’s disappearance.
In November 2019, a Warwick St property in Mayfield was searched, with several items of interest seized by police.
Another property was searched in Henderson St, Riversdale, where “samples of forensic value” were seized.
Occupants of both properties have been spoken to by police but no arrests were made

The family of missing woman Jessica Boyce want people to share her photo on social media to help shame her killer into coming forward.

Her cousin Aaron urged people to share the photo in the hope it would prick someone’s conscience.

“Hopefully seeing Jess everywhere might break the conscience of whoever is involved and propel them to come forward, and he(her cousin) is begging for the murderer to reveal where Jessica’s body can be found so she can finally be laid to rest.

In an open message to the killer, Aaron says he still hopes that Jessica’s killer will do the right thing.
