A 42-year-old woman has been charged with public mischief for allegedly misleading police during a search for missing Saskatchewan girl, Tamra Keepness.

Tamra, 5, disappeared from her Regina home July 5. She has never been found.

It's alleged that around Sept. 3, Sherry Anne Rose of Regina provided city police with false information about a possible suspect in the disappearance. Police spokeswoman Elizabeth Popowich refused to provide further details on the case.

A few days after Rose allegedly provided the misleading information, police searched an area in the Muscowpetung reserve near Fort Qu'Appelle, about 65 kilometres northeast of Regina. They reported finding nothing.

Rose is to appear in provincial court Tuesday.

Tamra went missing shortly after going to bed on July 5. Though more than 1,000 tips poured in and a $25,000 reward for information was offered, there are still no answers on her disappearance.

According to search warrants obtained by the media, police considered abduction a possibility early on in the case.

Police used the warrants to search Tamra's home between July 7 and 9 and 20 and 21. According to the warrants, police found blood in the home's front porch, on the floor and on bicycles located in the front porch.

The blood reportedly belonged to Russell Sheepskin, who had been in a fight that night with Tamra's stepfather, Dean McArthur. The fight happened about four hours after Tamra was last seen.

McArthur was later charged with assault.

Police have said they have questions about the "comings and goings" from the Keepness home the night Tamra disappeared. McArthur and Tamra's mother, Lorena Keepness have always denied there was a party in the house that night.

Shortly after the disappearance, Tamra's father, Troy Keepness was also arrested following an alleged fight with McArthur. He had allegedly gone over to the family home to "get answers" about his daughter's disappearance and brought along a baseball bat.
