Saundra Carrie Bryson, known to family as Carrie, was 39 when she was last seen in Waynesville, North Carolina. The last confirmed sighting was November 24, 2021, when she was released from the Haywood County Detention Center. After that release she made no contact with family or friends and was reported missing by her sister on January 19, 2022.

Carrie is described as a white female, 5 feet 7 inches, about 160 pounds, with blonde hair and green eyes. Investigators searched the Waynesville area and received unconfirmed reports of a possible sighting in downtown Asheville, but no confirmed leads emerged. At the time she disappeared she had outstanding warrants for failure to appear for an extradition and for probation violations, which raised the possibility she might be avoiding law enforcement, although her family says the complete lack of contact is hard to explain.

The Haywood County Sheriff’s Office is handling the case and asks anyone with information to come forward. If anyone knew Saundra Carrie Bryson or saw her after November 24, 2021, please share what you know.
