Brandt was last seen on November 8. At that time, she was wearing black pants, a black shirt, and black sandals.

The woman is 5-foot-1, 130 pounds, with blue eyes and is wearing a wig so her hair color may be different than her released photograph.

The Lake County Sheriff’s Office said the woman is possibly in the Lake County or McHenry County area.

Lake County Sheriff’s Office Deputy Chief Christopher Covelli said the woman qualified for endangered status because it is unlike her to disappear.
