Yuette Wabbington, 33, vanished from the Druid Hills area of Birmingham, Alabama, in autumn 1997 after leaving her mother’s home with the promise to return later that evening for a family gathering. She did not come back, and the family filed a missing persons report the following day when concern turned to alarm. Wabbington was living with her mother and her two children at the time and was described as a homebody whose disappearance was out of character.

She is Black, 5 feet 11 inches, about 140 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes; at disappearance her hair was in shoulder-length braids loose at the scalp and she had a gold tooth on the right side. She was last seen wearing a red and white striped Tommy Hilfiger shirt, dark jeans and sneakers, and did not own a vehicle, often walking to visit neighbors. Investigators have considered the possibility of foul play, but the case remains open and unresolved.

If anyone knew Yuette, saw her that day, or has information about her whereabouts, please come forward.
