4:22Now PlayingThe family of a British woman who has been missing for three years in the US Virgin Islands are pleading for help from President Biden to find her.
Sarm Heslop had moved to be with her new boyfriend, Ryan Bane, and the pair were living and working together on Mr Bane's boat, named Siren Song.
But in March 2021, in the dead of night, the 41-year-old disappeared from the catamaran. Three years on she's still officially missing, but her mother Brenda Street now believes she was killed.
In a statement, a lawyer for Mr Bane said: "While we empathise with Sarm's family's frustration, Ryan Bane had nothing to do with Sarm's disappearance. Ryan is heartbroken that Sarm went missing... The coastguard was twice on the vessel conducting a search and questioning Ryan. They had unfettered access to the vessel and Ryan answered all questions posed to him."
A UK Foreign Office spokesperson said: "We are assisting the family of a British woman who has been reported missing in the US Virgin Islands and are in contact with the US Virgin Islands Police and the US coastguard."
