Cindy Cheree Kent was 17 when she disappeared from a North Little Rock, Arkansas bus station in late winter 1979, last seen in or around March. Described as Native American, she was between 5 feet 6 inches and 5 feet 8 inches tall, about 135 pounds, with black hair, brown or hazel eyes, eyeglasses and a scar on her scalp. Her maiden name was Woosley and her middle name may be spelled Sheree.

Very few details about why she was at the bus station or where she intended to go were ever released, and the case grew cold for decades with no confirmed contact. An unverified report placed her in Bakersfield, California, in 2003, and at one point her NamUs profile was removed, suggesting a change in status. Ultimately information later showed she had died in 2001 in Arvin, California, a fact reportedly confirmed by the Kern County Coroner’s Office and her son.

If anyone knew Cindy, her family, or her movements after 1979, can you share information that might clarify what happened?
