‘We love Taylor and want her home.’: Illinois Woman Disappears in Bahamas During Yoga Retreat, Family ‘Deeply Concerned’

The family of a missing Chicago woman is concerned for her safety after she traveled for a yoga retreat in The Bahamas earlier this month and mysteriously vanished.

As CrimeOnline previously reported, the Royal Bahamas Police Force said Taylor Casey, 41, was last seen on June 19 near Paradise Island in Nassau. A friend posted on Facebook that Taylor attended a yoga retreat before she “mysteriously vanished.”

The Sivananda Ashram Yoga Retreat contacted Bahamian police after Casey didn’t attend morning classes on June 20. The retreat’s statement, obtained by CNN, indicated that police had informed the US Embassy and Casey’s family that she was missing.

“We are deeply concerned for Taylor’s safety and well-being,” Casey’s mother, Colette Seymore, said on a Facebook page dedicated to finding her daughter. “We love Taylor and want her home.”

Casey, who has practiced yoga for 15 years, attended the retreat to “deepen her practice,” according to her family’s statement. She was “eager to share her yoga retreat experience with others upon her return.”

According to the family, Casey is a “light-skinned Black woman, approximately 5 feet 10 inches tall and 145 pounds, with [has] brown hair and brown eyes.”

The Bahamas has been on a level 2 travel advisory since January, due to “violent crimes, including burglaries, armed robberies, and sexual assaults, occur in both tourist and non-tourist areas,” CBS News reports.

Anyone with information on Casey’s whereabouts should contact RBPF’s Criminal Investigations Department at 502-9991/2, or Crime stoppers at 328-TIPS (8477).
