The Thurston County Sheriff’s Office is looking for Michelle A. Francis, who was last seen Aug. 4.

Before she was last seen, however, Francis’ car was parked at the Thurston County Courthouse on July 23, but she did not leave in it, according to the Sheriff’s Office.

“Friends and family have been unable to contact or locate her since then,” the Sheriff’s Office information reads.

But on Aug. 4, Francis was seen near the Union Gospel Mission in downtown Olympia, and she might still be in the area.

Anyone with information about Francis is asked to send an email to detectives@co.thurston.wa.us.
