Family of Missing Wisconsin Mother Pleads for Help in Finding Her

HATFIELD, Wis. – The family of a missing Wisconsin mother is pleading for help in finding her.

Alisha Sidie, 27, disappeared nearly a week ago from her Jackson County home.

Her mother, Susan Rowlee, says her twin grandchildren miss and need their mom. Sidie's twins, Zackary and T.J., are 2 years old.

For days, Sidie's friends and family, along with hundreds of volunteers and law enforcement officers, have combed the area around Hatfield. But there's still no sign of the woman.

Jackson County Sheriff's Sergeant Patrick LaBarbera says they've searched the woods, river and roadways on foot and with ATVs and boats. Investigators also have been going door to door and following up on leads that have come in.

The search for Sidie was halted Wednesday at 4 p.m. and will resume on Thursday.

Sidie's ex-husband, Doug, said his wife left home about 9 p.m. Friday and never returned. He reported her missing about 6 p.m. Saturday.

LaBarbera said officials still are treating it as a search and rescue mission, not a recovery effort.

Sidie was last seen wearing light blue scrubs and a long-sleeved T-shirt. Alisha Sidie is described as 5-foot-5, 135 pounds with brown hair and brown eyes.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Jackson County Sheriff's Department at (715) 284-5357.
