MADISON, Wis. -- The case of a missing Madison-area woman is getting national attention.
VIDEO: Nolan Case Goes NationalCBS, CNN and Fox News Channel are some of the national media outlets that have contacted the Nolan family and Madison police."What we want to do is bring this young woman home, hopefully alive and well, so she can be reunited with her family," said Madison Police Department's Joel DeSpain. "If some attention by the national media helps us in that effort, then that's good."Police said phones have been ringing off the hook from both local and national media outlets.The last time a local missing person garnered national attention was in 2004, when Audrey Seiler's fake disappearance became nationally notorious."I'm not sure that we've ever seen anything in Madison like Audrey Seiler, and I think that there is no interest on the department's behalf that this becomes a spectacle like Audrey Seiler," said DeSpain.Neither family nor police have reason to believe nationwide attention is necessary, but Kelly Nolan seems to have vanished without a trace.Family and officials believe more exposure to her picture and story may help bring forward more clues to her whereabouts."We've gotten so many tips," said Kelly's sister, April Nolan. "The police have told us that's a huge help. As far as doing this, the more we get her name and face out there, the more information we're going to get.""It's about sending out the loudest scream I could ever make and telling everybody that you'd miss someone you love," said Kelly's mother, Mary Jane Nolan. "That' you'd die for that person, that you want them back or you don’t know if you can make it through your life."For any information on Kelly Nolan, call Madison police Crimestoppers at 608-266-6014.
