He stated that the probe remains ongoing as the police search to recover the body of the 24-year-old social media influencer, who was reported missing on Wednesday, July 13, 2022. Donaldson was believed to have spent the night with Maitland, who had reportedly picked her up at her house at about 10:00 p.m. on July 11.

According to reports, he arrived in a black BMW for her to spend the night at his Chelsea Manor apartment. When her mother, Sophia Lugg, could not get in contact with her on July 12, Miss Lugg reported that she has not seen or heard from her daughter.
