Search Continues For 15-Yr-Old Ja’Dore Wilson
[Updated] Police are continuing their search for 15-year-old Ja’Dore Wilson, saying that “while there so far has been no indication that Ja’Dore is in any danger, the fact that she is a minor and has not been seen in almost two weeks, is cause for grave concern.”
A police spokesperson said, “As Bermuda Police Service [BPS] efforts to locate missing 15-year-old Ja’Dore Wilson, continue, officers this morning canvassed the Friswell’s Hill, Pembroke, area as well as other locations she is known to frequent.
“However, door to door checks and speaking with area residents have so far not led to any information about her whereabouts.
“Ja’Dore was last seen at her North Terrace, Pembroke home Wednesday morning, 17th September 2025 and is described as light complexioned, 5 feet 4 inches tall, of medium build, weighing approximately 175 pounds, with black and blonde hair past her shoulders. She is still believed to be travelling mainly on foot.”
Acting Assistant Commissioner of Police, Dennis Astwood, stated, “While there so far has been no indication that Ja’Dore is in any danger, the fact that she is a minor and has not been seen in almost two weeks, is cause for grave concern. Ja’Dore’s loved ones are anxious for her safe return. Someone knows of her whereabouts. If you are that person, please make immediate contact with us by calling the main police number 295-0011.”
The spokesperson said, “The BPS also once again urges anyone with any information at all, on the whereabouts of 15-year-old Ja’Dore Wilson to contact Detective Inspector Kenten Trott immediately, by calling 717-2345, or e-mailing kenten.trott@bps.bm.”
Update 5:40pm: A police spokesperson said, “There is reason to believe Ja’Dore may be staying away from home voluntarily, and possibly being harboured. We are pleading with the public, especially parents and guardians with teens and young adults, to check your homes and properties.
“We urge anyone who may know her whereabouts to do the right thing and come forward.
“Keeping a minor from her family, regardless of intention, can be dangerous and may carry legal and emotional consequences.
“This child’s safety is our number one priority.
“Anyone who is knowingly allowing Ja’Dore Wilson to remain hidden, even under the belief that they are helping her, is potentially interfering with a missing persons investigation.
“Doing so not only puts her at greater risk, but could also result in criminal charges, depending on the circumstances.
“This child is 15. She is vulnerable, and any adult or peer who thinks they are protecting her by keeping her hidden is doing the opposite.
“We are pleading for compassion, responsibility, and action. If you have any information or even a suspicion that Ja’Dore Wilson may be in someone’s home or care, please do the right thing and immediately contact Detective Inspector Kenten Trott immediately, by calling 717-2345, or e-mailing kenten.trott@bps.bm.
“You may also call 211, or, the main police number 295-0011.”
