Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP8411) and 6 other sources
Jerri Denise Cox, a 39-year-old woman from Orange, Texas, was last seen on December 1, 1997. At the time of her disappearance, Cox was involved in some criminal activities, and her last known sighting occurred when she met with her probation officer in Orange, Texas on January 7, 1998. She was reported missing about a month later on February 2, 1998. Despite extensive investigations, no substantial leads have surfaced, and her case remains unsolved.

Cox is described as being 5'1" tall, weighing approximately 95 pounds, with brown hair and blue eyes. She also has several distinctive features, including a tattoo of a lightning bolt on her upper right arm and a unicorn tattoo on her left shoulder. She wore eyeglasses and had dentures. Her family suspects foul play may have been involved in her disappearance, as she has not been heard from since that day. Investigators have long pursued any leads and continue to seek public assistance to solve the mystery of her case.

Authorities encourage anyone with information to contact the Texas Department of Public Safety to help bring closure to Jerri's case.
