this is for berniebear4u it was reported that Marian was seen in Okatoks trying to sell Dream Catchers. Yes I believe she was. someone else told her what to say. the lady at the store said she looked like Marian and even had a russian accest . but then said no it wasn't her she had blonde hair . hello what is wrong with this picture. People can dye or can have their head shaved and made to wear wigs . that store person should have thought this through and phoned the police. more to come later.
@toronto8086 She would have made a noise if she was snatched off the street.
It would be nice to know she's okay, but since there is no evidence she went to school that day, we have to rely on the credibility of the family. And sadly that family appears to have had many issues.
I hope there is closure for the young girl very soon.
@phillydisco It is hard to say if this girl is still alive,if she is then i think it was Human Trafficking.Under the circumstances.Now her father lost it and stabbed the two people that put up Bail for him in a simuliar case.He is on charges of Attempted Murder and is in jail.I feel sorry for his wife.They say God does,nt give you more than you can handle.Her daughter is missing and her husband is going to jail.Its very sad.
@phillydisco Really.Oh i didnt know that as far back as then.Well that is just an accident waiting to happen.Look where Justice landed him.I do feel for his wife,she must be ready for a break down at least she has her son,because her husband wont be coming home for awhile.What a mess.
Did Miram use this entrance each day that she had been going to that school? Had she mentioned to anyone, anything odd or even just a feeling about anything about school or anything in the days prior or even the month before her dissappearance? Did she or had she made any new friends from school, or from away from school, or prior to coming to Canada? Friends whom her parents may not have been told about, whom they may not have approved of?
I am going to say it, because it needs to be said, if she was any other colour than white, this would not be making the news for a week nor would the police be going all out like they are right now!
Is it possible to find the whereabouts of each and every person ,that was on the plane with them.Did the flight attendents notice anything.I hope they do a thorough investigation and they get the break,thats badly needed to bring Mariam home.
Her parents could not know her that well and she was not close to her brother,she lived with the Granny and him at the Aunts.She would have been 12 when they left her,bonded with Granny,UPROOTED.The only life and lang.she knew,a father that has exposed himself in front of a platground of kids.PIG probaly didnt stop there,maybe he was botherin her too.People do disappear,and are found years later,dead or trying to stay hidden.Remember Morningstar Sharin,Never did find her killer.
I am starting to realize that this chick had this all figured out,or did she?Im confused and baffled.How can someone thin k that on the ONLY,THE ONLY day she decides to use another entrance,she vanishes.Who did she meet?Maybe she had plans not to live with parents that left her and her brother behind.CULTURE???Was there a boy who helped her get away,she was not a happy person,look at her smile ,it looks fake all cocked to one side,like a smirk.i think she is out witting the police and her famiy
What the hell are you talking about,GANGS,BEARS.Sorry but i would not listen to u either,sounds dillusional and the cops cant go on your wild goose chase or is it BEARS their after.
This was no kidnapping. This was premeditated. It is no coincidence that this girl disappeared. If this kidnapper did exist, why didn't he take a different girl, but he somehow picked the one girl who had JUST moved to Canada and spoke no English. Smells fishy to me. This has to be the premeditated work of either the family or a bad connection from their homeland. The whole family should have polygraphs done, I see her brother in person every day, and he seems happier then ever.
we have so many problems in Ontario and we have a Police Force who is doing the best job possilbe in trying to find the whereabouts of this young girl - but I sense there is a lot lacking from the parents especially the brother - he looks like he does not care at all, if my sister was gone for 3 months, I would be knocking on doors myself 24/7 - but he is totally oblivious to this quagmire....in my mind he is hiding something - needs to go for a polygraph test as do his parents
If they do find her in Alberta , alive,- good ! but she needs to pay a heavty fine for the costs incrrred by the Province of Ontario. Quite honestly - I have not seen any emotion from her parents nor her brother since her disappearance - these are not people that fear the worst - so my compassion level is down to a minimum. If down the road it is found out that this was a scam - the whole family needs to be deported back to were they came from. We do not need scammers in Canada
@borejsza49 have knowledge of where they have this girl and other women. Yes I have told crimestoppers / police were this place is . These people feed you drugs , shave your head , put you on the street for prositution. even what the house looks like. All I got from crimestoppers was "your tip will be passed on ". This was even before Mariam went missing. If the police had follow up on the leads the women would have been home by now . don't be cruel . these people are very cruel .
@polly1847 i wanna listen to u, i am interested in helping find something about this missing girl, i am just beginning my search, what can you tell me. please!!!!!
WHAT?????? Who r these people that wont talk 2 the cops??Got something to hide!! Well guess what maybe u prefer a search warrant,or suponea,makes u look suspicious.What if u wanted/needed answers and the community refused you.SHAME ON YOU.THE BOYS GOT WAYS OF MAKING U TALK.This is a very serious case,and not cooperating,well i just cant believe your mantality.GOOD LUCK OFFICERS AND I HOPE THERES LESS OSTRIDGES AND MORE WILLING.GOD SPEED
what do mean the boys got ways of making U talk. that is all I have been do is talking to them about were this place is for about 2 years. this gang will get rid of you. if they think you are no use to their drug/prostition business. there will be no visable means leading back to them. It will show that the person died of natural causes , like was attacked by bear. Don't mind the spelling mistakes
I think the girl's father should be looked at more closely. He was charged previously with something pertaining to young girls, perhaps he was molesting his daughter when she was young, now she's older, has had to return to be with him, and so she ran away....
Who was the old lady that said she seen her on the elevator crouched down and crying and if so why did she not call the police,she said she knew it was Mariam The police should check Boiler rooms and entire building not just apts.GOOD LUCK OFFICERS
This case has bothered me from day one. I think the only person who apparently witnessed her going to the school was the brother. I haven't heard of anyone else seeing her. Did they go to school at a time later than usual? Are there any cameras along the route they took to show she did walk to school that morning? A little strange it happened the day after the dragon boat race. Perhaps there was an argument after? They act more resigned than hopeful or pleading in their interviews.
psychics don't get info on everything it is random there are a lot of attention seekers but there also those who sincerely try to help also people should not attack the family and turn this into some Ramsay case the worst torture is when your child is missing and people blame the family the police have much more info than we realize when investigating these cases the truth will come to light it's the public and media that turns these cases into a circus
I wonder where are the so called psychics, who show up only in documentaries and tiltale stories? why don't we see them fakes in real tragedies like this or the little heartbreaking Tori? they should be ashamed of what they claim for their sick sickic scams
17 year old Mariam Makhniashvili, volunteer (Sep 13 2009) at Dragon Boat Challenge (YMCA Strong Kids) is missing have you seen her? Have you seen anything strange? Please contact police with information
oh we have the same bday me and Mariam. Honestly they need to investigate their lives before coming to Canada. Maybe theres some bad blood between the family and someone not in Canada and they are holding their daughter. I hope shes okay.
What into a gang . get it through your head this gang has been operating for at least since 1980. Almyer, Brantford,Toronto, Saskatoon. Prince Albert, Lloydminster,Calgary , Edmonton. I know they are a lot more smarter than the police unless some of the police are part of the gang! maybe that is why the police do not follow the leads why else .what ever gossip remarks we make will have to answer to God.
Something doesn't add up about nobody being able to verify she made it to school except her brother. He says she went around front b/c her class was closer but nobody saw her. He says they walked to school together but nobody saw them.
Presumably the dad and mom have alibis, right?
I dunno... I'd be looking hard at the brother here and I fear what he may have done...
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I agree with you RobViper3 - take a look at the brother, but personally I'd be looking closer at the father....he may have been sexually molesting her previously, considering the charge against him previously.....she'd been separated from him and her family for awhile and found herself back. I understand he said she didn't much leave his side.
are there any cameras around the school entrance? I know most schools have them. If so, does it show her entering the building, or at least walking by?
she goes to my school and its horrible for all of us. I've never met her or her brother but she's in my friends' history class and she's very nice but very shy. I can't even begin to imagine what her family's going through.
Posters of her are all over the school and the area. It really made the school a lot quieter because even when she's not on our minds, she's on our minds.

Would it have killed you to splice the live coverage with a few good clear photos of the girl?? Also, a few good shots of the school entrances, which might jog someone's memory? And, on the off chance she did run away, an on-camera plea from a parent might be motivation to call home, don't you think?
Would it kill you to Google her name and find the hundreds of images already posted on media outlets across the country? People like you make me sick for being so mentally deficient.
i heard the press release on the radio this morning.
if i were working on this case, i'd pull the attendance records from the school for that day, and thoroughly investigate each student, teacher, and employee that was absent at ANY TIME during that day, and i'd canvass every house and business within a 1 block radius of the path her and her brother walked between their home and school.
someone from the neighbourhood must have seen them walking that morning
