The reward for information regarding a woman missing for nearly five and a half years has been increased by the Meskwaki Tribal Council. It has approved a $75,000 reward for information regarding Rita Papakee, who was last seen leaving the Meskwaki Bingo Casino Hotel on January 16, 2015.

The Meskwaki Nation Police Department believes the department is just one solid tip away from locating Papakee, but Chief Jacob Molitor notes there are probably only a select few who know anything about Papakee’s disappearance.
