The case of Lilly and Jack Sullivan, two young siblings who vanished without a trace from their family home in rural Nova Scotia, has taken a deeply unsettling turn. As the search for the six-year-old girl and her four-year-old brother stretches into its seventh week, online speculation is spiraling—and the family’s contact with Child Protective Services (CPS) is now fueling explosive new theories. Lily and Jack seemingly disappeared without a trace Lilly and Jack Sullivan are still missing from Nova Scotia, Canada. They were reported missing on May 2nd. I check for updates every day. #missingchild pic.twitter.com/fSpUAK7ayK— Rose (@901Lulu) June 15, 2025 Lily and Jack were last seen on May 2 at their home in Lansdowne Station, Pictou County. According to initial reports, they may have wandered out through a sliding glass door, triggering a massive ground and air search that gripped the region. But despite more than 180 tips and the mobilization of over a hundred volunteers and RCMP officers, no solid leads have emerged. On June 19, the province of Nova Scotia offered a $150,000 reward for information, officially adding the siblings’ case to its Major Unsolved Crimes Program. Still, no answers have come. The Canadian Child Protective Services revelation It truly does make one ponder if CPS has an underground type of railroad. In a lot of these missing kids cases CPS shows up and then kids go missing. Food for thought Having said that…how many times does CPS need to show up before something bad happens?— Nicole Goforth (@Goforth1Goforth) June 20, 2025 In the absence of answers, rumors have flourished. Social media users are now pointing to confirmed reports that Canadian Child Protective Services had visited the family before the children disappeared. While there is no official confirmation of the reason for those visits, some sources suggest CPS might be involved. One comment said, “It truly does make one ponder if CPS has an underground type of railroad. In a lot of these missing kids cases CPS shows up and then kids go missing. Food for thought.” The sentiment, echoed in thousands of shares and comments, is chilling. It suggests that CPS might be covertly removing them under the radar and placing them in hidden protective custody. Notably, there is no evidence to support this theory. Canadian family service agencies do have the legal authority to apprehend children in certain situations of risk or abuse, but those actions are typically documented and subject to court oversight. There is zero credible information to indicate that Lily or Jack were taken into protective custody or that CPS is involved in any underground activity. Suspicions fall on Lily and Jack’s mom I read that the mom is on the run with Meadow. Did you hear anything about that?— G oftwins (@deeann_siems) June 19, 2025 Some online are even claiming that Lily and Jack’s mother, Malehya Brooks-Murray, is on the run with Meadow. One post read, “I read that the mom is on the run with Meadow… not sure if I believe it.” The claim appears to have originated from comments with someone described as a relative. “I believe they’re being hidden by the mother’s family,” another comment said. Again, no law enforcement agency has confirmed any such development, and there is no indication that the mother is fleeing authorities or involved in the children’s disappearance. This growing tangle of speculation highlights the emotional urgency gripping the public. The question lingers: Why were child protection authorities visiting the home before two children vanished? And what, if anything, did they find? As the RCMP continues to pursue the case as an active missing persons investigation, officers have urged the public to remain focused on verified information. The vulnerable persons advisory issued in early May is still in effect, and the family has not been publicly implicated in any wrongdoing.
