Missing 2 Months and 5 Days, Family Offers $5,000.00 Reward

SAN FRANCISCO - July 26, 2013 - PRLog -- San Francisco - Sean Sidi vanished on May 21, 2013 near 150 Oak Street in San Francisco, CA. With the help of an army of volunteers, the Sidi family has conducted ground searches, held vigils, posted thousands of fliers, and even traveled to the Montana Rainbow Gathering in an effort to find the missing nineteen year old.

The Sean Sidi Facebook page and website (www.seansidi.com) are now averaging over 7,000 visitors per day. Hoping to generate the one lead that will bring Sean home safe, the family has announced they are offering a $5,000.00 reward for anyone with information that leads to Sean’s safe return or the arrest and conviction of any person(s) responsible for his disappearance.

According to a statement issued by Dr. Geoffrey Manley, Chief of Neurosurgery at San Francisco General Hospital, “Sean’s medical condition puts him at significant risk of death, or of not making a meaningful recovery from his brain injury if not found quickly.” Sean underwent emergency brain surgery only months before he vanished.

According to NOKR’s National Director for Missing Adults, Sean is considered an extremely “high risk” missing person case. “Sean’s medical condition places him in a category of individuals with a disability who are at significant risk of injury or victimization if not found immediately,” says Kym L. Pasqualini. “Every day Sean is missing creates more concern and urgency.”

Sean’s mother Lynn Ching hopes offering the reward will be the incentive that someone needs to provide information about Sean Sidi’s whereabouts.

The Sidi family is asking the public to continue to help distributing his flier nationwide focusing on shelters, food kitchens, churches, transportation centers, and hospitals. The Reward flier can be printed at www.seansidi.com or fliers can be mailed by contacting lynnkching@yahoo.com.

Please contact Lynn Ching at 415.713.5913 for interviews.
