It’s been three months since Nefertiri Trader vanished from her New Castle home in the middle of the night.

The 33-year-old mother of three lived at the home on the unit block of Freedom Trail, in the community of Saddlebrook, with other relatives.

A neighbor told police that they saw Trader being forced into her vehicle by an unidentified person around 4 a.m. the morning of June 30.

Family reported her missing later that evening. She was last seen in her silver 2000 Acura RL with a Delaware license plate.
