Lakeshia Deanyet Turner, a 27-year-old mother, was last heard from on October 31, 2006, in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Family contact ceased after that date; she was not reported missing until June 2008, when her then-boyfriend arrived at her family’s home with her young son and said Lakeshia was jailed in Georgia. Authorities searched for records to confirm that claim but found none.

Descriptions circulated list her between 4 feet 11 inches and 5 feet 2 inches, about 140 to 150 pounds, with black hair, brown eyes, a mole on her collarbone and a tattoo down the center of her back. Despite efforts by the Myrtle Beach Police Department, the case produced no significant leads and eventually went cold. There has been no confirmed sighting or contact since October 31, 2006.

If anyone knew Lakeshia, where she worked, or saw her around Myrtle Beach in late 2006, please share what you remember.
