Is Patrick Frazee, missing Woodland Park, Colorado woman, Kelsey Berreth’s – fiance a suspect? Failed to report his child’s mother missing.

The spotlight for a missing Woodland Park, Colorado mother of a baby girl has shifted to her fiance following a Monday press conference which elicited more intrigue than it answered since a local flight instructor was last seen, Thanksgiving Day.

Kelsey Berreth, 29, has not been seen since November 22 when she was filmed on surveillance cameras shopping at a Safeway grocery store with her baby daughter.

Her fiance, Patrick Frazee, says she dropped the little girl off afterwards at his home and that he has not seen her since. The couple do not live together despite sharing a daughter and being engaged. 

On November 25, co-workers got a text message from Kelsey’s phone saying she would not be coming to work the following week. Patrick has told police that he received a similar message on the same day. 

That same day, Kelsey’s cellphone signal pinged 700 miles from where she vanished in Gooding, Idaho. It was not until December 2, however, that police searched her home after her mother reported her missing. 

It remains unclear when Kelsey was meant to collect her daughter from Patrick’s home or what the text he received from her said.

He has not made any public appeals for information which could lead to finding her, and his absence was glaring at Monday’s press conference. Of note, police said Frazee was the last known person to have seen Kelsey alive. 

Asked why Kelsey’s fiance wasn’t at Monday’s press conference, Miles De Young, Woodland Park Police Chief told one reporter: ‘You’d have to ask him.’ 

The official gave the same answer when another reporter asked him why Patrick did not report Kelsey missing. 

Later, he refused to name him as a suspect, saying: ‘At this point, he is the father of Kelsey’s daughter.’ 

Kelsey Berreth missing: Not a crime scene (yet).

Police are yet to officially rule Kelsey’s disappearance suspicious and say they have no evidence to indicate anything other than she is a missing person.

When they searched Kelsey’s home, they found cold cinnamon rolls which had been left out, presumably to cool. The only thing missing was her purse.  

‘She’s not the kind that runs of. This is completely out of character. She’s reliable, considerate and honest,’ Cheryl, Kelsey’s mother, said. 

‘She doesn’t run off and someone knows where she’s at. Kelsey we just want you home. Call us if you can and we won’t quit looking.’

Cheryl confirmed that she lives in Idaho – the same state where Kelsey’s phone was last tracked to, but her home is more than 500 miles away from Gooding. 

Kelsey’s brother Clint Berreth had earlier revealed he went to her home shortly after realizing she was missing and is adamant she didn’t pack to go anywhere. 

Her luggage and makeup remained untouched, and her two vehicles were still at her home.

‘They’re a very close-knit family. That’s why I don’t believe she’d just… She wouldn’t put them through that,’ her cousin JoDee Garretson told KEPR-TV. 

‘She’s such a good person, a loving person. She’s grounded and responsible. She has a one year old child, she wouldn’t just leave her.

‘There’s no reason to think she intentionally is gone.’ 

Kelsey is described as 5ft3in tall and weighing 110 pounds.

She was last seen wearing a white shirt, gray sweater, blue pants, and white shoes while carrying a brown purse.
