Bryanna Lynn Rosendo was 35 when she disappeared from Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, in spring 2021. The last confirmed contact was around late April or early May 2021, after which all of her social media activity stopped and family and friends became alarmed.

Her childhood was marked by placement in a juvenile detention center at age 12 during the Luzerne County Kids for Cash scandal, a trauma her family says shaped a turbulent adult life. At the time she vanished she was known to lead a high-risk lifestyle and to use online apps; some reports place her last known location in Wilkes-Barre while others say she may have traveled to Baltimore with a man she met online. Friends later reported seeing her in Wilkes-Barre months after her initial disappearance, and a caller from the family reached a woman who said she had Bryanna’s phone number.

The family learned Bryanna’s name surfaced in connection with a human trafficking investigation, and they fear she may have been taken against her will. Authorities describe the timeline as unclear and the investigation hampered by conflicting information. If anyone knew Bryanna, saw her in 2021 in Wilkes-Barre or Baltimore, or has information about her possible involvement in trafficking, please share what is known.
