The search for Samantha Fiddler continues in Florida years later.
The Florida Department of Law Enforcement continues to pursue leads into the 2016 disappearance of Samantha Fiddler and hopes the public can help solve the mystery. Fiddler was last seen in Bartow on November 19, 2016. She was 29 years old when she vanished.
“FDLE will not stop until Samantha has been found,” says FDLE Tampa Bay Special Agent in Charge Mark Brutnell. “Nearly a decade has passed, and we will continue to work tirelessly to find her.”
Fiddler relocated to Florida from Alberta, Canada in March 2016, pursuing a career in wrestling and entertainment. She was last seen in Bartow (Polk County) just seven months after moving to the Sunshine State. While living in Florida, Fiddler spent time in Polk County, Orange County, Miami-Dade County, Brevard County, Broward County, Osceola County and Seminole County.
FDLE began investigating the disappearance of Fiddler in 2020 at the request of the Bartow Police Department. Agents have conducted multiple interviews with family members and friends both in Florida and in Canada. Investigators believe there are people who knew her while she lived in Florida and may have information that could aid the investigation.
Fiddler has a scar on her lip and several tattoos including one on her foot and another on her back shoulder. Acquaintances may know her as Lucy Morningstar, Samantha Steele or Samantha Lloyd.
“We’re asking the public and Samantha’s friends and acquaintances to help us find her. She’s out there and she needs to be reunited with her family,” said Brutnell.
