Kathy Jo Hemphill, 51, was last seen by family in October 2017 at her home in the 5900 block of west 4th Place in Tulsa. Neighbors reported hearing a heated argument that day between Kathy and her common-law husband. Her white 2005 Chrysler PT Cruiser was missing when she vanished; she also left behind her dog and all of her personal belongings.

Kathy is described as having green eyes, medium-length brown hair often worn with feathered bangs, several tattoos including a rose on her left breast and a bird on her upper right back, and scars on her nose and back. Her family says there was a history of domestic violence in the relationship. The husband has been named a person of interest, but no charges were filed due to insufficient evidence.

In February 2018 a man identified as John David Lee II was seen driving Kathy’s recovered PT Cruiser, was arrested on unrelated auto theft charges, and has been publicly named a person of interest in this case; he is also linked as a person of interest in the 2014 disappearance of Richard Horn. The Tulsa County Sheriff’s Office lists the investigation as open. If anyone knew Kathy, her routines, or saw the PT Cruiser after October 2017, can you share what you remember?
