Olivia Lone Bear was a 32 year old mother of five, and a member of the Three Affiliated Tribes - the Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara Nation. In October 2017, Olivia disappeared from the Fort Berthold Reservation where she lived, leaving behind personal belongings such as her wallet and cellphone. The truck that Olivia had been borrowing from a friend that day also vanished.

The search for Olivia lasted nearly ten months. With little to no aid or resources from tribal, state, or federal authorities, Olivia's family was essentially left to search for her on their own.

Olivia Lone Bear's death is highly suspicious. There is a reward in place for information leading to those responsible for her disappearance and death. Those with any information are asked to call 1-800-225-5324.

Olivia Lone Bear is one of far too many Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women across the United States and Canada.
