Chanell Crosby, a 35-year-old Black woman from Atlanta, disappeared in mid-July 2024 after last being seen around July 13. Relatives said they received a text the next day indicating she was in Macon, and her family reported her missing on July 14. Loved ones described the silence as unusual because she was a mother who normally checked in with her children.

On July 19, 2024, Atlanta police were called to the West End MARTA station at 680 Lee Street SW after a report of an unresponsive person in a vehicle. Officers found her body in the back seat of a car in the parking lot; the vehicle had drawn attention because of a foul odor. Her death was ruled a homicide and the medical examiner identified a gunshot wound as the cause of death. Reports noted her body was decomposing when discovered, suggesting she had been there some time.

Family members said Crosby had left home with her boyfriend, Jamal Harvey, for a trip to Macon and that he was the last known person with her; reporting did not show that he was charged. The case remains an open homicide. If anyone knew Chanell, where she traveled in mid-July, or has information relevant to this case, please come forward.
