Sierra Thomas was 19 and a mother of two when she vanished from Atlantic City. Known to family as Sweetie, she worked at Caesar’s and had enrolled in an adult education program to finish her high school diploma. The last confirmed sighting was November 21, 2002. That morning her sister drove her to the 800 block of North Maryland Avenue in the Back Maryland neighborhood so Sierra could see the father of one of her daughters. Sierra said she would call when she was ready to be picked up; after waiting about an hour the sister briefly left to pay bills and the call never came.

Sierra was wearing a black Guess jacket, a dark blue or black shirt, light blue sweatpants, and a multi-colored scarf, and she had only $33 on her. Her boyfriend reported being the last person to see her, saying he saw her with another male friend shortly before meeting her himself; after that, all contact stopped. Law enforcement suspects foul play. The disappearance remains unsolved and Sierra did not return to her children, job, or classes.

If anyone knew Sierra, her routines, or saw her in Atlantic City around November 21, 2002, please come forward with information.
