MISSING WOMAN, ODD REACTIONS, POSSIBLE BRIBE

After searching for answers in Guatemala, the family of a missing American woman feels like they still have more questions than answers. It's just very frustrating because even three months later, my family is searching for answers that we should have had on day one. 29-year-old Nancy Ng went missing in Guatemala in October while attending a yoga retreat. She was last seen in Lake Adelan on a rented kayak. She was with another woman when she disappeared. The kayak rental company said the yoga retreat group did not tell them about Ms. Ng's disappearance and did not pay. And despite being scheduled to stay longer, they left the country within 12 hours. A company owner told ABC, quote, I just don't understand that part of leaving within eight hours, 12 hours of the accident. The woman with Ms. Ng when she disappeared, Christina Blazek, claims to have filed a statement with police. However, the prosecutor investigating the case in Guatemala has yet to find the statement. An initial three-day search by Guatemalan authorities came up empty-handed. They believe Ms. Ng drowned. The FBI did an investigation, but is not able to reveal any details to the family or the public. However, they did state they are not aware of any foul play. Blazek, the only direct witness, spoke with the FBI, but did not respond to requests from search teams to help with search efforts. She also has not spoken with Ms. Ng's family after numerous requests. The family has been paying out of pocket for helicopter and underwater search efforts, but so far have not made much progress. They've said also that in their 20-plus years of experience, they've never had a witness to an accident not help, not offer information, and that this was just a very bizarre case. After a month of silence, Blazek spoke publicly through her attorney for the first time, saying that Nancy drowned after getting out of her kayak to swim. Her attorney told KTLA, my client has, from the very beginning, done everything she can do to shed light on what happened and cooperate with giving whatever information that she has. The investigation by Guatemalan authorities is still ongoing. The prosecutor in charge of the case received a report saying that police were bribed in exchange for omitting Blazek's police statement and to keep Blazek out of custody. The allegations are currently being investigated by Guatemalan authorities. Jason Blair, Entity News.
