Wednesday marks the two-year anniversary of the disappearance of Brayden Thibault.
Thibault, from St. Stephen, was last seen on Gibson Street in Fredericton on July 31, 2017.
Police have long considered his disappearance suspicious and suspected foul play was involved. But earlier this week, the RCMP announced they now believe Thibault was the victim of a homicide.
In a video appeal in early 2018, Amanda Frigault, Thibault’s mother, said she is scared she will never find him.
Frigault said she feels “incredibly helpless” knowing she cannot take away the fears of his family and friends or give them answers.
“I’ve watched my children lose their innocence when I had to tell them that Brayden just wasn’t away somewhere and I’ve held the broken hearts of the people he loved most,” said Frigault.
Frigault also encouraged anyone with information about his disappearance to contact police or Crime Stoppers.
“Please help them find Brayden, help them bring him home and help begin to heal the hearts of all the people who love him,” she said.
“You all have someone in your life that you love, and if you were forced to live a moment of this nightmare, I would pray that the people who had information would come forward. My family is asking for the same respect and compassion that we would show yours.”
Investigators said they know there are people who know what happened to Thibault and where his remains are located.
“We want to bring him home and give some sense of closure to his family,” said RCMP Const. Jullie Rogers-Marsh on Tuesday.
Anyone with information can contact the New Brunswick RCMP’s Major Crime Unit at 506-452-3491 or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222-8477.
