Missing TV Writer's Sister Now 'No Longer Alive'
1 May
Summary
- Sister's disappearance investigated, now confirmed deceased.
- Case shifted from missing person to homicide probe.
- Family suspects phone and social media compromise.
Christina Downer, the sister of TV writer Fowlie, who was reported missing in December 2025, has been confirmed deceased. The Los Angeles Police Department informed the family that the case is no longer a missing person investigation but has been reclassified as a homicide probe.
Downer was last heard from on November 26, 2025, and was active on social media until December 15, 2025. Her brother had initially sought public assistance in locating her, noting her strong attachment to her dog, Rex.
Before her disappearance, Downer and her boyfriend had filed for domestic violence restraining orders against his ex-girlfriend, citing threats and harassment. However, these requests were dismissed due to non-service and failure to appear in court.
The family believes Christina's phone and social media were compromised in the weeks leading up to her disappearance. They suspect these accounts were used to hide her absence, solicit money, and fabricate a story that she was voluntarily going offline.
A spokesperson for the LAPD stated that while the circumstances are suspicious, Downer has not been located, and the case has not officially been classified as a homicide. The Robbery-Homicide Division continues to investigate the suspicious disappearance.
