51 Year Old Iona Costello & Her 14 Year Old Daughter Emily Costello Missing Since 3/30/15 in Manhattan, NY (Update: Found Safe)

 

51 year old Iona Costello and her 14 year old daughter, Emily  Costello, have been missing since March 30, 2015 after they traveled to Manhattan, NYC  and never returned. Iona and Emily are from Greenport where she owns a farm on the North Fork.  A family member Jane Costello said that Iona and Emily went to New York City  to see some shows and parked their car in a garage on 3/30/2015. Surveillance video captured Costello and Emily walking out of the Midtown parking garage. Iona Costello and Emily Costello were reported missing on Tuesday, after Emily was absent from school following the spring break. Southold Police said Iona Costello is 5-foot-10, 120 pounds and blonde and her  daughter is 5-foot-8, 110 pounds.

According to further reports, calls to their cellphones have gone unanswered and there has been no activity on the mother’s credit cards.

An East End farm owner and her 14-year-old daughter vanished in Manhattan last month after what relatives thought was going to be a short visit to see a few shows.

Cops are looking for Iona Costello, 51, a well-known equestrian from Greenport, and her daughter, Emily, a student at the posh Ross School in East Hampton.

They haven’t been seen since March 30, said Diana Malcolmson, the mother of Iona.

Relatives filed a missing-persons report when Emily didn’t return to school on Tuesday.

Police found their car in a parking garage on 42nd Street Wednesday night, and they appeared happy in surveillance video, Malcolmson said.

UPDATE I: Cops have no leads on missing Long Island mother and daughter after they vanished in New York City.

Could this be a possible reason for the two’s disappearance. According to reports, Emily is Iona Costello’s only child.

“The first thing we look for in these types of investigations is telephone calls, emails and credit card use,” Southold Town Police Chief Martin Flatley told the Daily News.

“We have nothing.”

“We’ve heard different theories from different people,” Flatley added. “It’s all speculation at this point.”

Costello, who runs a horse farm in the quaint seaside town on the tip of the North Fork, has been “under a lot of stress” fueled by a legal battle over her dead husband’s will, a family member told The News.

Costello was married to George Costello Sr., a construction manager who died of a heart attack on Dec. 28, 2012.

The will signed by the thrice-married George Costello, 63, who co-owned Costello Marine Contracting, which builds docks and bulkheads, left everything to Iona and Emily.

The will is being contested by four children from his previous marriages, records show.

“She can’t sell anything. She can’t do anything because everything is in court,” the family member said of Iona. “She’s been under a lot of pressure.”

Still, the relative said family members have no clue what might be behind the Costellos’ disappearance.

“I don’t know if she’s having a nervous breakdown. I don’t know if somebody has kidnapped them,” the relative said.

“We have no idea. The family is berserk.”

The Costello family has asked anyone with information to call the Southold Town Police Department at 631-765-2600.

UPDATE I: Found Safe in NYC.
