Janis Elizabeth Rudder, 40, disappeared from the streets of Mobile, Alabama, in the spring of 2016 after an April 19 arrest for loitering with intent to commit sex work. That arrest is one of the last confirmed contacts; after that the trail goes cold and only unverified leads and rumors followed.

Janis is listed as endangered missing. She was described as 5 feet 4 inches to 5 feet 6 inches, 165 to 175 pounds, with brown hair, hazel eyes, and a tattoo of a heart with wings bearing the name Shane and the number 100. Possible sightings were reported in October 2016 but were never substantiated. Later unverified claims alleged she was the victim of a violent crime and that her body might have been concealed in woods near local hotels, but no concrete evidence has been reported. Her case was entered into NamUs in July 2018 after a report to the Mobile Police Department in May 2018.

Did anyone in Mobile see Janis or notice her tattooed heart with wings in 2016?
