Summary

Nikki Saelee-McCain last contacts her family with a text message just after midnight.

She texts with her sister, letting her know that she was driving her mother-in-law’s vehicle back to the McCain home near the Win-River Casino. Later that morning, when Saelee-McCain's family texts her again, she did not respond. It's been more than a month now since anyone has seen or heard from Nikki. Her truck, however, was found abandoned in another county. 

The Redding Rancheria Tribal Council has allowed for searches for Nikki Saelee McCain to take place on some of their sovereign land, and it is the Redding Rancheria which operates the Win-River casino, that is offering a reward of $10,000 for information that leads to McCain-Saelee’s whereabouts.
