An intensive search is underway for a mother of three who has been missing since last Sunday, which was March 22.
Texas Equusearch has joined in the search with ATVs and a helicopter, along with over 150 family members and volunteers in the effort to locate the 32-year-old missing mom.
"This is only a mile from where her house is at, and we always start from where they were last seen and spread out from there," Tim Miller, of Texas Equusearch, said.
According to family members, Sleeper left her house with her phone and purse, but family members say her phone has since been turned off.
"She does not leave her phone off and they haven't been able to get a signal since Saturday on her phone," Sleeper's mother, Dina Street, said.
Equusearch said it's unclear whether she left on foot or if someone picked her up.
Sleeper is described, by her mother, as a loving mom who is always around her kids.
"That is what she gets up in the morning for. That is why I know this is not right. She doesn't turn her phone off. She doesn't leave her vehicle behind. She is very in touch to be able to get back home to be with her kids."
Sleeper is married. The husband said the last time he saw her she was sleeping on the couch Sunday morning as he left the house with their son. But when he returned, she was gone.
Sleeper also left her medication behind, another warning sign, as going without places her at a greater risk of having seizures.
Anyone who has seen Sleeper or knows anything about her disappearance is asked to call the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office.
Maybe just a coincidence, but it was also around March 22 that investigators confirmed the identity of a woman found dead nearby. She was also from Magnolia.
