Cheretha Morrison, 37, disappeared after dropping her daughter off at school in Chicago’s South Side. She was last seen driving in the 6900 block of South Throop Street and failed to return that afternoon to pick up her child. At the time she vanished she was pregnant and family members said she had argued on the phone the day before; friends described the relationship she was in as toxic. Authorities consider the circumstances suspicious and do not believe she left voluntarily.

A few days later Cheretha’s silver Porsche Cayenne was found in a tow zone in the 7400 block of North Winchester Avenue, about 20 miles from where she was last seen. A significant amount of cash was on the passenger seat, and police noted Cheretha had received parking tickets at that location in the past, suggesting she may have been visiting someone there. Her car was recovered for further investigation.

Cheretha was described as 4 feet 11 inches and 140 pounds, with several tattoos: a large heart with the name Cheryl and R.I.P. on her upper left arm, Glorious on her left forearm, a large red rose on her right upper arm, and Rita on the right side of her neck; she also had a lower right lip piercing. The Special Victims Unit is investigating. Did anyone in the neighborhood or who knew Cheretha see her around the time she disappeared or recognize why her car was parked on the North Side?
