Satara Silver, Young Aspiring Actress, Has Been 'Missing' in Hollywood for Months

Satara Silver
A petite, blonde aspiring actress named Satara Stratton (but calling herself Satara Silver on IMDB) was first reported missing back in October by her mother, who lives out of state, says LAPD Detective Carmine Sasso.

"She's been spotted occasionally, but we always get the information kind of late," says Sasso. However, they do believe she's been frequenting the 6500 block of Santa Monica Boulevard, near Highland Avenue in the heart of Hollywood.

By "missing," police mean that the 24-year-old has lost touch with her mother.

Although Stratton is an adult and can technically live as she pleases, her mom "suspects that she has gotten involved in something bad and wants to get her some help," says Detective Sasso. If she does finally turn up, the cop says that "all we can do is try to get something in place to help her."

A removed blog post on Examiner.com by Sharon Stratton, who appears to be the missing woman's mother, claimed that Stratton was in the custody of "stalker turned abductor Paul Constantinesco -- he and his group place Satara into life threatening situations via use of drugs, and coercion through violence." (The young woman is friends with a creepy-looking "Paul Constantinescu" on Facebook.)

Detective Sasso confirms that "we're looking at information on acquaintances," including a male whose information police might soon release.

The mother also posted this call for help to Facebook on February 3:

"Last seen November 22, 2011 under duress of a sex offender. Please help locate Satara Stratton (Silver-stage), last seen 6564 Santa Monica Blvd., 90038; has health issues risk to life, and previous torture by this man lead to suicidal ideations, and he forced drugs....please help"

According to her IMDB profile, Satara Silver played a bit part in two movies last year, including the character "Sarah" in Cult Movie. Here's her physical description and the contact info for her LAPD and Culver City Police Department investigators, via City News Service.

Stratton has blonde hair and blue eyes. She is 5 feet 3 inches tall and weighs about 90 pounds. She has a slim build and light complexion and suffers from a serious medical condition, police said.

Anyone with information about Stratton's whereabouts is urged to call
the Culver City Police Department at (310) 837-1221 or Detective Carmine Sasso
of the LAPD's Adult Missing Persons Unit at (213) 996-1800.

The victim's mother apparently lives in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

Update: The aspiring actress is listed as a "voluntary missing adult" in the California State Department of Justice's missing-persons database.

Satara was a freaking hooker by day..shoplifter extroidinaire and heroin addict by night. Sad to see my friend care about a chic who only wanted to pick her arms and do drugs. I would see her sitting in a chair for hours alone at the computer. Paul would try to get her to stop she would just get upset and storm off to the bathroom to do more h e was in love she was just looking for a place to do drugs and a ride to go get them. The boyfriend she had in north hollywood would beat her and make her turn tricks. Paul would run to her aid everytime she called. Once she threw away her grandmothers ring in the big dumpster along with her drugs. Her boyfriend was dumpster diving tryn to find them when paul arrived to pick her up. Her boyfriend screaming and ranting because she was leavin again. She told him I have a job. Ill be back.. sad satara. Liar. And you know it girl..tell the truth.

Does it get anymore L.A. than that? Very David Lynch Mulholland Drive. So many lost desperate souls in L.A. hoping to make it as actors, musicians, writers, dancers. Most of them never make it and become addicted to drugs, alcohol, sex. Or they get involved with Scientology, Agape, Hare Krishna (ISKCON) and other cults/"churches" get brainwashed, exploited. She should have stayed home in TN with her family. The photo of her mugshot and the actor 8x10: it's not a long way from point A to point B.

What the hell is a "voluntary missing adult," and how do I become one?

More people are concerned about her. L.A. friends, her father and family from out of state also haven't heard from her in months. There's been virtually no phone or facebook activity except a message including threats to her and her mother if she sought out help from police. Also, several posts of those concerned about her have been removed. Fortunately people have been coming forward with information and continue to do so.

Satara not only lost contact with her mother, as the report suggests. She lost contact with friends, daily conversations with several people.  The only contact was one email to her friend stating, "Help", "Scared", and "Threatened", 2 weeks ago; now there are NO sightings, and neighborhood witnesses state this as strange.

Check Craigslist "Adult Services".  If she's working, she will definitely have an ad up there.  May not be in her real name but the picture may ID her.

"Aspiring  Actress" one week, Sex worker the next.  Please get the word out, Hollywood is not a place for a young girl.
