Fifteen-year-old Jaliyah Evans was last seen in Ellenwood, Georgia, in Clayton County on January 29, 2026.

The Clayton County Police Department is the agency of record, and the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children lists her as a missing child. Family members and advocates have highlighted the case as an example of how Black children’s disappearances can receive limited coverage; beyond the missing-person listing, law enforcement has not released a narrative or updates, and no persons of interest have been publicly named.
