Janice Webb was 48 when she disappeared from Cleveland’s Buckeye neighborhood in June 2009; relatives said she loved family, singing and pulling pranks but struggled with a crack cocaine addiction. Her family reported her missing in August 2009, two months after she was last seen.

Police discovered decomposing remains on Imperial Avenue in October 2009; Janice Webb’s remains were identified among 11 victims found at the property of Anthony Sowell. Sowell, a previously convicted sex offender, had lured vulnerable women—many battling addiction—into his home under the promise of drugs or companionship, and the bodies were concealed on his property.

The discovery shocked the Cleveland community and raised questions about how missing-person reports involving marginalized women were handled. If anyone knew Janice, her routines, or has information about her last weeks in June 2009, please share what is known.
