Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP73111) and 13 other sources
On August 25, 2020, 64-year-old Carol Renee Carter was last seen at approximately 10:00 a.m. in the 18000 block of Charity Lane in Accokeek, Maryland. She left her residence driving her silver 2014 Buick Regal with Florida license plate number HGWJ16. Since that morning, neither Carol nor her vehicle have been seen again. Concerns for her well-being were heightened due to pre-existing medical conditions; Carol has epilepsy and high blood pressure and was believed to be without her medication. Her disappearance prompted an immediate response from the Prince George's County Police Department and has been a source of ongoing concern for her family and the community.

Carol is described as an African American female, standing at 5'1" and weighing between 145 and 180 pounds. She has black hair and brown eyes. One distinctive physical characteristic is that she walks with a slight limp. Friends of her son indicated that on the day she disappeared, she was believed to be going shopping in the Southern Maryland area, possibly in La Plata or Waldorf. There was also a possibility she could have been shopping in Alexandria, Virginia, near a Harris Teeter on Duke Street. The search for Carol has involved various efforts, including checks of local waterways by volunteer search groups, given the proximity of her home to several bodies of water.

The investigation into Carol Carter's disappearance is being handled by the Prince George's County Police Department. Despite the passage of time, her case remains open, and law enforcement continues to seek information from the public. The lack of any significant leads or sightings of her or her vehicle has left her loved ones without answers. The case serves as a painful reminder of the many individuals who vanish without a trace, leaving a void in the lives of those who know them. The ongoing search efforts by both officials and community members highlight a desperate hope for resolution and for Carol to be brought home.
