Hollynn Snapp, 19, was last heard from on October 5, 2023, when she texted her adoptive mother saying she was at a residence on Bell Ridge Drive with a 52-year-old man who did not want his name shared. Hollynn is about four feet nine inches tall, with brown hair and hazel eyes. Her family describes her as emotionally and cognitively vulnerable, with an IQ comparable to a 10 or 11-year-old, and they fear that trustfulness may have been exploited.

Witnesses later told investigators Hollynn was last seen at that Bell Ridge Drive home appearing incoherent and badly beaten, and that no one there sought help. Her family filed a missing person report with the Sullivan County Sheriff’s Office on October 22, 2023, and an Endangered Young Adult Alert was issued. The Sheriff’s Office has executed interviews and search warrants on properties and phones; the man she was last seen with has been jailed on unrelated matters since her disappearance but has not been charged in this case.

Hollynn would be 21 now and remains missing. Anyone who knew Hollynn, saw her in Kingsport in early October 2023, or has information about the Bell Ridge Drive residence is asked to come forward.
