Cathy James, a 60-year-old woman in Oklahoma, mistakenly walked into a home in Tonkawa, believing it was her friend's house. The homeowner called authorities, and Cathy told them she thought she was in Muskogee, Oklahoma, almost two hours away.
It was clear Cathy was having a mental episode, but law enforcement let her go anyway.
Cathy James was never seen again.

In January 2023, 35-year-old Brittany Tee walked away from a home in Brookfield, Massachusetts and vanished.
It was dark and cold out, and Brittany was on foot. No one knows where she was planning on going, or why.
What followed was one of the largest search efforts in central Massachusetts history - with state police, divers, and volunteers scouring the icy woods, ponds, and rivers surrounding the quiet town of Brookfield.
Yet, no trace of Brittany has ever been found.
WHERE IS BRITTANY TEE?

It’s a crisp November night in upstate New York.
A 12-year-old boy named Jaliek Rainwalker spends the evening at a house in the small town of Greenwich. By morning, he’s gone.
And no one has seen him since.
Jaliek’s story is one of resilience and heartbreak — a child who had already survived a turbulent childhood, moving through foster homes before finally being adopted, only to vanish under mysterious and troubling circumstances in 2007.
His disappearance sparked years of questions, searches, and speculation.
Was Jaliek a runaway, as his adoptive father claimed? Or was something much darker at play?
WHERE IS JALIEK RAINWALKER?

PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA: On December 30, 2019, 22-year-old Tonee Turner got off the bus near her home- as she always did and vanished into the night.
An hour or two later, a cyclist found a bag, a pair of shoes, and a ceramic vase on the side of the Homestead Grays Bridge. These were Tonee's belongings. He took the bag, which contained a cell phone, and left the shoes and vase behind.
He contacted Tonee's family letting them know what he had.
While many feared she jumped, others point out some inconsistencies as to why that doesn't really make sense.
The search for Tonee turned up few clues, and to this day, Tonee Turner remains missing.
Where is Tonee Marie Turner?

Six Bizarre Disappearances out of Connecticut
In August 2018, Kylie went missing from a friend's home in Shreveport, Louisiana.
Also in August, a young man- Zac Hebert- vanished from the same area, possibly the same house.
But that wasn't all.
Another woman would vanish as well- Crystal Beal.
On Halloween that same year, Zac Hebert's body was found in a shallow grave.
All three cases remain unsolved, and it is unclear if they are connected.
Where is Kylie Hartman? Where is Crystal Beal?
And who killed Zac Hebert?

In 2023, within a few months' timeframe, two young girls would vanish without a trace from Kingsport, Tennessee.
Hollynn Snapp, just 19 years old, and Layla Santanello, age 20.
The girls have a similar background and mutual friends, but weren't known to hang out together themselves.
There are some possible persons of interest- maybe in both cases- but no solid leads as to their whereabouts.
Are their disappearances a coincidence? Or are they connected?
Where are these missing girls of Kingsport, Tennessee?

Billy Smolinski Jr. was a likable, friendly, and outgoing guy.
In 2004, at 31 years old, Billy had just broken up with his girlfriend but made plans to spend the following weekend with one of his exes. He was upset over the breakup, but looking forward to a weekend out to help get his mind off of things.
But that weekend wouldn't happen.
A bunch of odd things would begin to happen. Billy allegedly asked a neighbor to feed his dog while he went out of town for a few days. But he left behind his truck and belongings. His family said he made no mention to them that he was leaving town, and they spoke regularly. He had also just returned from a trip to Florida.
The family knew something was wrong, but the police refused to investigate. Strange clues would start stacking up, leading the family to believe something bad had happened.
In 2009, they began working on 'Billy's Law'. This would offer, in part, a change to the databases and set up a central system for missing person reports, a system that all law enforcement have access to.
In December 2022, the bill was finally signed into law.
But we still don't know where Billy Smolinski is.
Although I'm certain that someone knows something.

In August of 2019, a grandmother in Hanson, Massachusetts vanished into thin air.
She was last seen by her son-in-law, who dropped her off at home the evening of August 7, 2019.
On August 9, 2019, Sandra's daughter, Laina, showed up at Sandra's house to drop off her three boys for the day, as they had previously arranged.
Sandra was nowhere to be found.
There were some reports of an argument at the home the night of August 7th, but this wasn't confirmed.
If it's true, who was this woman arguing with? Sandra lived alone, and no one could be certain who it might have been.
