Jack O'Sullivan: Mum 'in disbelief nobody seems to know where he is'
Catherine is now urging the public to keep up the fight - claiming they have no support from the authorities
More than seven months on from the disappearance of Jack O'Sullivan, the search continues to try and locate him.
Over the weekend, his mum, Catherine, took to Facebook, saying that she's in 'disbelief' to think that 'Jack is not here with us and nobody on Earth seems to know where he is.'
At the time of his disappearance, he was 23 years old - and vanished on the 2nd of March after leaving a house party in the Hotwells area.
To date, not a single clue has been found to suggest what might have happened.
Catherine is now urging the public to keep up the fight - claiming they have no support from the authorities.

Six months on from his disappearance, last month, Assistant Chief Constable Joanne Hall, who met with the family in July to discuss their concerns, said: “Our staff and officers remain committed to doing everything we can to find Jack and we do not underestimate what a distressing time this has been, and continues to be, for his family.
“Throughout our investigation, we’ve been open-minded about what happened to Jack, considering different possible outcomes and scenarios following his last sighting.
“We have sought reviews from independent agencies such as the National Crime Agency (NCA) and experts such as oceanographers and independent Police Search Advisors.
“Sadly, despite the efforts carried out to date, we have been unable to find Jack and we fully appreciate the anguish this is having on his family and our thoughts remain with them during this hugely difficult time.”
In response to the family's complaint into a lack of support, a spokesperson for AS Police previously said: "We’ve received a formal complaint from the family of missing 23-year-old Jack O’Sullivan in relation to our investigation into his disappearance, which remains ongoing.
“The complaint has been recorded by our Professional Standards Department and will now be thoroughly assessed by a trained investigator. We’ll be updating his family as this assessment progresses."
Detectives say they have reviewed and re-reviewed more than 100 hours of CCTV footage as well as carrying out searches on land and water, by drone, with dog units and a specialist dive team.
"Sadly, despite these efforts we’ve been unable to find Jack to date. We fully recognise the distress and anguish this has had on Jack’s family and our thoughts remain very much with them. We’re determined to do all that we possibly can to find the answers they so desperately need...
"We’d like to reiterate our appeal to anyone who was travelling in or walking around Cumberland Basin on Saturday 2 March, anytime between 2.30am and 5.30am, to contact us on 101 and give the reference number 5224055172."
A website into his disappearance has been set up, which you can access here.
On this site, they describe his disappearance: "It is now over 100 days since 23-year-old Jack O'Sullivan went missing on March 2nd 2024, following a night out in Hotwells, Bristol.
"Jack, having attempted to get a taxi home, was last seen on CCTV on the morning of March 2nd at approx. 3:40 am walking up the Bennett Way slip road heading back towards Hotwells.
