Janet Jolene Stephens-Brown was 25 when she left her Belmont Street home in Ashland, Kentucky, on October 14, 2009, for what was described as a short walk to the Jr Foodmart on 29th Street. That trip is the last time she was definitively seen. She left all her belongings at home and reportedly had no known connections outside the local area, so her disappearance was out of character.

Kentucky State Police followed a few leads; a possible sighting was reported on November 11 in the Vincent Apartments parking lot, but it was never confirmed and the trail went cold. Janet is described as a white female, brown hair, hazel eyes, 5 feet 1 inch to 5 feet 3 inches, about 110 to 125 pounds, wore glasses, and had tattoos including two hearts on her forearms with the names Ashley and Michael and Sugar and Spice on her right shoulder blade; she also had a small scar on her chest. Her case remains an active endangered missing person investigation.

Did anyone in Ashland in autumn 2009 see Janet near the Jr Foodmart or the Vincent Apartments, or recall any other detail that could help explain what happened?
