SEARCH FOR DENISE HART
August 18, 2015

Today's water and ground search for Denise Hart has ended. Evidence was collected and will be analyzed as part of the on-going investigation into Denise Hart's disappearance. Investigators will not be able to comment further on what was found or where. A large area of the Otter Creek and surrounding shore area was searched, from Leicester through Cornwall. The 20 searchers were comprised from the Vermont State Police Scuba Team, Marine Division, Search and Rescue Division, and K-9 units. Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department wardens also participated.

The Vermont State Police would like to reiterate that this is an on-going investigation and search into the disappearance of Denise Hart, and welcome any information that the public may have. If you wish to make contact with investigators, please reach-out Vermont State Police Detective Sergeant Julie Scribner at 802-388-4919.

###

Today, the Vermont State engaged in a water and ground search in the ongoing effort to locate missing person Denise Hart. (Original press release attached). 20 searchers from the Vermont State Police and Vermont Fish & Wildlife were deployed in and along the Otter Creek in Leicester, Sudbury, and Cornwall. Below are statements made to media at the location where Hart's burned-out car was discovered in February, near the covered bridge on Swamp Road in Cornwall.

At this time there are no updates to the investigation.

STATEMENT FROM Dedre Robinson (Mother of Denise Hart):

To the State of Vermont: PLEASE! Anybody with information about the disappearance of Denise Hart, can you please come forth? We know somebody out there knows something. Her family and friends are missing her desperately. She has missed so much. She has two brand-new nephews she hasn't even met yet, and she's missed her nieces and nephews birthdays. Her own son 4th birthday is coming up in a few days and she is not home. We don't have any answers. It has been almost 8 long hard desperate months. We just want some answers - please! If anybody knows or has seen anything please say something. Thanks you. Her son needs her mother back.

VSP STATEMENT issued by Captain JP Sinclair:

The Vermont State Police continue to investigate the case of missing person Denise Hart (age 24). Hart was last seen leaving the residence of a friend in the town of Sudbury, VT during the evening hours of Sunday, January 25th, 2015. Detectives with the Vermont State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation became aware that Hart was missing on the night of January 31, 2015. Since that time, a team of detectives has been continuously investigating the circumstances of Hart's disappearance.

As part of the ongoing investigation, a search of the Otter Creek will be conducted today, Tuesday, August 18th.

This area has a significance to this investigation. The vehicle Denise Hart was last seen operating, prior to her disappearance, was recovered in this location. Evidence has been collected in this area and we return today to take advantage of certain conditions that provide investigators new opportunities to identify and collect evidence. The water level in the Otter Creek is at its lowest point since Hart was reported missing. This search will take advantage of these conditions and afford ground search teams the opportunity to access areas adjacent to the creek that previously have been unsearchable.

The Vermont State Police and the Vermont Department of Fish and Wildlife have a number of different resources for both a water and ground search on and around the Otter Creek. Search teams will reconnoiter this area throughout the day as part of this missing person investigation.

The significance of this area is based on information gained in the investigation thus far. Denise Hart had daily contact with her family, who have not heard from her since her disappearance. Foul play is suspected in Denise Hart's disappearance.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Det. Sgt. Julie Scribner, Vermont State Police (802) 388-4919.

Sheryl will be remembered as a kind, warm hearted, loving person who welcomed anyone into her home and gave without ever expecting anything in return. She loved racing, fishing, camping, singing, making birthday cakes for her family, attending her grandchildren’s games and spoiling them, but she was most fond of having her family around her.

Sheryl was predeceased by both of her parents and is survived by her husband Carl of Weathersfield; three daughters and their spouses, Sarah & Larry Riendeau of Ascutney, Vt., Tracey & Ryan Welch and Carlene & Matt Streeter both of Springfield, Vt.; a brother James Graves of Holland, Vt.; three sisters Sandra Carter of Granby, Conn., Linda Bowen of Arizona and Angela Gray of Debry, Vt.; four grandchildren Brian, Christopher, Kayla & Katrina; four great-grandchildren Kam, Anna, Preston & Nathan and her beloved dogs Goodyear & Diesel.
