Search For Missing Woman Expands To New Web Site
Plainfield Mother Last Seen Monday Evening

PLAINFIELD, Ill. (CBS) ―
The family of a woman missing for four days is turning to the Internet for help. Lisa Stebic disappeared Monday and a new Web site is set up now to get the word out about her disappearance.
As CBS 2 West Suburban Bureau Chief Mike Puccinelli reports, Lisa Stebic's loved ones held a news conference Friday afternoon to try and publicize the Web site, www.FindLisaStebic.com, which they have created in the hopes that it will lead to her safe return.
The 37-year-old mother of two from Plainfield was last seen Monday night.
"She left about 6:15 to go workout. Somebody picked her up. I was working out in the backyard," said her estranged husband Craig Stebic.
There has been no trace of her since then, despite the fact that more than 20 people spent five hours Thursday searching a three square mile area of the Plainfield subdivision where the family lives.
Friday at the police station where Stebic's picture is on the door, investigators conducted interviews with people who know her.
"So far there are no positive leads at this point," said Deputy Chief Mark Eiting.
Police say no foul play is suspected.
Lisa Stebic's family says they were talking Friday because Lisa's sisters are just too distraught.
"The family is in anguish. This is not like Lisa. She would never leave her children," said her cousin Melanie Greenburg.
Still, in the hopes that Lisa is out there and able to watch the coverage of her disappearance, Mark Greenberg had this message for his missing cousin: "You are enormously loved. You're missed. Your family is broken hearted. Just please come home."
