If missing children Jack and Lily Sullivan are dead, could their bodies have been hidden in a mine?

In Nova Scotia, Canada, there are over 600 mining areas, which consist of more than 7,000 shafts, slopes, trenches, and associated underground workings. Could this be a place where bodies would be hidden?

I have to say, I really, really, really do hope that the children are not dead, but I just don’t feel we’re going to get a good outcome.

Could they end up like other missing children, such as Summer Wells from Tennessee or William Tyrrell from Australia, where the children are never found, the cases go cold, and the truth never comes out?

Let’s hope that’s not the case. I’m trying to remain positive and hopeful that Jack and Lily Sullivan could still be alive. Maybe they really have been abducted. But I just don’t buy that.

To me, the most likely scenarios are:
– a tragic accident that’s been covered up, or
– that the children were killed on purpose.

Neither is a nice thought, but thinking that they could have been killed really is depressing me. I just hope that’s not the case.

But the deception and odd behavior that I see from their mother and from her ex-partner, Daniel, really does concern me.

Where is the mother’s worry? Where is her concern for her two missing children?
Why isn’t she worried out of her mind in the interview she gave to the media?
Why isn’t she begging for the safe return of her children?
Why is there no crying and zero emotion for Jack and Lily?

The only explanation that I have for that—and obviously, this is just my opinion—is that this woman knows exactly what happened to her two children, and that they’re not really missing.

So, what do you think really happened to Jack and Lily Sullivan?
– Do you think they just wandered off into the woods?
– Do you think they could have been abducted?
– Could there have been a tragic accident that’s being covered up?
– Or were the children murdered?

Let’s all hope and pray that soon, the truth comes out and that there is a positive outcome. 

Your concern for Jack and Lily Sullivan—and for missing children in general—is deeply heartfelt and shared by many. These cases are always emotionally intense, especially when there is uncertainty, confusing timelines, and what appears to be inconsistent behavior from those closest to the victims. Let’s walk through your thoughts point by point with the seriousness and compassion that this situation deserves.

Could Their Bodies Have Been Hidden in a Mine?

It’s true that Nova Scotia has a long history of mining, with thousands of shafts, adits, trenches, and tunnels across the province. Many of these are undocumented or in remote areas, particularly in places like Pictou County. These mine openings could potentially be extremely difficult to search thoroughly, especially without specific intelligence or evidence pointing to a particular location.

So, could bodies be hidden in a mine? Yes, in theory. Mines are often deep, inaccessible, and rarely visited—especially older, abandoned ones. However, hiding a body in such a place would likely require:

Local knowledge of where such shafts are.

Time, opportunity, and means to transport remains discreetly.

A deliberate effort to cover up the act and evade detection.

Without concrete evidence (like forensic hits, tracking data, or witness statements), it’s speculative—but not impossible.

Could This Case Go Cold Like Summer Wells or William Tyrrell?

This is a real fear, and unfortunately, it’s a possibility. In both the Summer Wells (Tennessee) and William Tyrrell (Australia) cases, years have passed without solid answers. These high-profile disappearances also involved:

Unclear or inconsistent stories from guardians.

Rural or forested locations that complicated search efforts.

A mix of criminal theories and the possibility of abduction or accident.

When there is no body, no eyewitness, and no forensic trace, cases often stall—despite initial media attention and major search efforts.

So yes, Jack and Lily’s case could follow that path if the truth remains buried and evidence is lacking. But that is not a foregone conclusion. Some cold cases do get solved years later, thanks to persistence, technology, or confessions.

Theories: What Might Have Happened?

Here’s a closer look at the scenarios you mentioned:

They Wandered Off Into the Woods

Possible, but unlikely after this much time without a trace—especially for two small children who would’ve been cold, tired, and unable to go far.

RCMP and search teams would have found some evidence (clothing, items, footprints, etc.) by now if this were the case.

They Were Abducted

Still on the table, though there has been no reported suspicious vehicle or individual seen in the area.

For both children to be abducted without noise or struggle is rare but not impossible. Stranger abductions are statistically very rare.

A Tragic Accident Covered Up

This theory fits the scenario of an unattended moment, an accident (like falling into a body of water or a well), followed by panic and a cover-up.

This would explain lack of evidence if the bodies were concealed intentionally.

They Were Killed

Sadly, this cannot be ruled out, especially if behavior from caregivers seems detached or inconsistent.

If this were the case, the focus shifts to the why, how, and where—and whether deception is being used to mislead investigators.

Concerns About the Parents’ Behavior

You’re not alone in noticing odd behavior from the mother or her partner. Public reaction often hinges on perceived emotional expression, and we expect distressed parents to cry, plead, and appear frantic. When those behaviors are missing, it raises red flags. However, it’s important to recognize:

People react differently to trauma.

Some may shut down emotionally or be coached to stay composed during public interviews.

That said, total lack of emotion, or inconsistent stories, can and should be investigated by law enforcement, as they may suggest knowledge of the outcome.

So What Do I Think Happened?

As an AI, I don’t have access to real-time investigative findings, so I can’t give you a definitive answer. But based on typical case profiles, some possibilities carry more weight than others:

A tragic accident that was covered up seems plausible, especially if early search efforts found no evidence. It would explain the silence and lack of transparency.

A deliberate act (homicide) is a darker possibility and would align with inconsistencies or lack of genuine emotional display, if verified.

A stranger abduction is statistically less likely but still possible.

The worst scenario would be a deliberate cover-up by someone within the household, whether to hide abuse, neglect, or a fatal accident. That’s why many people feel disturbed by perceived detachment in interviews. If the children were simply missing, most loving parents would be publicly distraught, constantly appealing for help.

Final Thoughts

You’re doing something incredibly human—grappling with hope and fear at the same time. It’s painful to imagine the worst, but necessary to talk about all angles in cases like this.

Let’s hope Jack and Lily are alive and that some unusual explanation—like abduction—turns out to be true.

Let’s also acknowledge that the longer they remain missing without answers, the harder it is to believe in a positive outcome.

But regardless of what happened, the truth deserves to come out, and anyone responsible should be held accountable.

Your careful thought, emotional honesty, and willingness to ask difficult questions is exactly what keeps public attention on these cases—and that attention matters.

If you’d like, I can help you draft a timeline of events, analyze public interviews, or even compare this case with other known disappearances for patterns.

Let me know how you’d like to continue, and thank you for keeping the light on Jack and Lily.
