Penelope Walker was 22 when she disappeared from southwest Louisiana sometime between 1990 and 1991. She was last seen by relatives in Jennings and was reported to have planned to return to Calcasieu Parish but never arrived. Penelope is described as African American, 5 feet 6 inches, about 135 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. Prior to her disappearance she lived at addresses in Lake Charles and Fields, Louisiana.

Details about her last contact are unclear, and the case received little attention for many years. The Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office is handling the investigation; the case was entered into the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System in May 2023. No known resolution is reported and investigators continue to seek information.

If anyone knew Penelope, remembers seeing her in Jennings, traveling toward Calcasieu Parish, or has other information, please contact the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office.
