Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP122279)
Lisette Gustave Vilbrun, an 80-year-old woman, was last seen in West Palm Beach, Florida, on May 18, 2024. Online missing-person listings associated with the case identified her as a Black/African American female and described her as approximately 5 feet 6 inches tall and 150 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. The public case information connected to the West Palm Beach area listed the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office case number as MP122279, placing the matter under local
missing-person reporting in Palm Beach County.
The available online information about her disappearance is limited, but the circumstances were concerning because of her age and the vulnerability that can come with an elderly person being missing. Publicly available missing-person entries repeated the same core details: her name, age, physical description, West Palm Beach last-seen location, and the May 18, 2024 last-seen date. No online source located provided a detailed account of where she was headed, who last saw her, what she may have been wearing, whether she required medication, or what immediate search steps were taken in the hours after she was reported missing. In the absence of those details, the case record appears to have functioned primarily as a public alert meant to help identify her and connect any possible sightings or information back to authorities.
Official reports indicate that Lisette Gustave Vilbrun was found alive, and her case is no longer an active missing-person matter. The exact date and circumstances of her recovery were not available in the online information located, so those details should not be overstated. What can be said from the available record is that the case began as a concerning report involving an 80-year-old woman last seen in West Palm Beach on May 18, 2024, was circulated with identifying information to aid recognition, and ultimately ended with the most hopeful outcome: she was located alive. The overall case reflects how quickly concern can grow when an elderly person disappears, how important clear identifying details are in a public missing-person alert, and how meaningful it is when a missing person is safely found.Last Seen: May 18, 2024
