In a tearful video message, Nancy Higginbotham, Weston's partner, made a desperate plea to the people of Japan, urging them to keep an eye out for her loved one and report any sightings back to the authorities. With the search effort now in its second week, concerns are growing for Weston's welfare, and the Japanese public's assistance is being seen as a crucial factor in finding her.
