My niece came from across the country to visit my mom. She picked her up from her caregiver and took her to an undisclosed location for a months visit. For some reason my niece will not tell me where they are at, although she did let me talk to her on the phone tonight.
Mom has dementia and said she has no idea where they are at. Just that they are in an apartment and she has a bed to sleep in (she sleeps most of the time). What do you make of this? The caregiver said she doesn't know where they are at either. I wonder why my niece is being secretive?
This is the same niece who had my mom sign over POA to her two years ago behind my back. My mom never even recalled doing it. Who do you even report this sort of thing to?

Anyway, You should report this to the police. That is the same as kidnapping.
Something doesn't sound right.
An undisclosed location??? Sounds like she is hiding something.
There is something missing here, and of course we on forum could never guess at what that something is. This could be a person with POA taking a loved one on vacation or it could be something nefarious.
If you suspect there is some reason to think that there is possible harm to your mother then of course this is for investigation by APS who will report to Police. If this is an emergency, the go directly to the police.
You say this is your Niece. Is her mother your Sister? Does your sister or anyone else in the family know of this disappearance?
Hope you will keep us informed of this "mystery".
I can only tell you that, if my brother had disappeared I would have been in a police station in 2 seconds. So I suspect there is background in this story we are not being told. Hope you can tell us a bit more of the "mystery history".
