Dear Editor:

I just saw and read the article in the news on the MISSING people in the FORT BRAGG,CA area. And wanted you to know that there in fact is 1 more MISSING young Petaluma woman & her Dog, last seen in Fort Bragg, Ca in 12/2019. BRITTANY JANE ADKINS age 28, and her Dog JANIE. The story is almost identical to the Missing woman in the news story. I’m including photos, with info. Case. # and BRITTANY’S Dad, Jesse Adkins contact number.ย I hope the other Missing people are found safely and pray for their Families. Homeless are overlooked, but still loved and missed by friends & Families. I hope you won’t mind adding BRITTANY JANE ADKINS with the others MISSING FROM THE FORT BRAGG AREA within the 2019 -2021 time frame. Thank you for the story, and for your time.ย 
Sincerely,
D. Michelle Spriggs-Sweetman, Vallejo

    1. Thank you –
      As of this date in 2025, we have no answers still.
      We have submitted some pretty good leads – but nothing has come of it to our knowledge and Fort Bragg PD does not return our calls or emails & hasnโ€™t in over 2 + years.
      We feel the public is out only hope.
      Thank you to everyone who has reached out to us – we appreciate your support and we still have HOPE
      FOR BRITTANY JANE ADKINS

  1. This man forest from possibly petaluma? Had a gf named bree she and forest her boyfriend had a dog similair to the one in pics. Could this be love triangle gone wrong

    1. Anything is possible and I appreciate any information that can help in the finding Brittany we are currently working on generating a reward for information and would appreciate if you forward anything you can think of to officer Welter and the Fort Bragg Police Department phone number 707 96128 0 0 extension 168

    2. Anything is possible.
      We have received copies of texts between Brittany and another friend dated just before she was last seen. Stating she was with her ex Forest,!however not.located in Petaluma.
      And we provided this info to Fort Bragg PD with the friends contact info so they could verify this. They did not.
      Also received Forrestโ€™s full name and Facebook profile from another and he is located near Fort Bragg area.
      And we provided Fort Bragg PD again with this persons contact info for verification as well.
      We were told they would look into it and let us know. That was in 2022 I believe ( I would have to go back and verify this in my records )
      As of this date though in 2025 – they have not contacted us, nor have they returned any calls or emails since 2022.

  2. Fort bragg police need to return a phone call to jessie adkins-brittanys father-please do your job thank you let him know about investigation and where its going or its dead end at least do that to ease his mind
