On 10/14/09, Alan Brown called in to report his wife of 10 years was missing. Brown had not seen her since 10/12/09, when she left for work. After receiving a call from Galina's co-workers that she had not shown up to work, Brown filed a report. Brown told investigators that Galina's car was still in the garage and he had no idea where she might have gone. Galina's work confirmed she had not been at work for two weeks and that they thought she might have left the country for some medical procedures to be done. There has been no activity on any of Galina's accounts and she had not shared any information with her son that she would be leaving the country.
