Sonya Billingsley, 53, of Gary, Indiana, was reported missing on February 7, 2014. Remains later identified as hers were recovered on October 10, 2014, in an abandoned building at 413 E. 43rd Ave. in Gary; her identity was confirmed by DNA analysis after several months while the remains remained unidentified.

Her death was later linked to the arrest of 43-year-old Darren Vann of Gary, who was taken into custody in October 2014 in connection with the murder of 19-year-old Afrikka Hardy in Hammond. Investigators say Vann confessed to killing six other women and led them to bodies hidden in abandoned buildings around Gary, and Sonya Billingsley was reported as one of those seven victims. Court documents described Vann as having a prior conviction for sexual assault in Texas and said he targeted women in areas known for prostitution and drug use, allegedly luring them with promises of sex or drugs before strangling them.

Does anyone have information about Sonya’s last known movements or contacts in Gary before February 7, 2014?
