Marquita Lenae Jones, 28, disappeared from the Hill neighborhood of New Haven, Connecticut, in the summer of 2011. Known to family and friends as Luv, Quita Luv or Keisha, she was last seen on or near West Street; accounts place her last contact around the beginning of June or July, while a family member says July 4, 2011. At the time she was described as an African-American woman, 5 feet to 5 feet 2 inches tall, 100 to 110 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes and two scars — one on her right wrist and a facial scar running from above her left eye down to her chin.

Marquita had a history of drug use and may have been homeless when she vanished. Her case is listed as an endangered missing person; the police say the case remains open but was reported in 2019 as not being actively investigated. Investigators and family note a lack of dental, fingerprint or DNA records, which has complicated the search. No confirmed contact has been reported since her disappearance.

Does anyone who lived or spent time in New Haven’s Hill neighborhood in summer 2011 remember seeing Marquita or have information that could help her family?
