Jordan Elaine Smith, also known as Jordan Barbee, was 27 when she was last seen on April 4, 2021, in the Falcon Chase Subdivision of Concord, North Carolina. A mother whose absence has prompted a years-long search, Jordan is five feet five inches tall, 120 to 150 pounds, with blonde hair, brown eyes and several distinctive tattoos: a cheetah print on her right shoulder and arm that incorporates a gun, a large chest tattoo of her son’s name Kohyn with a crown over the K, and the word Sterling with a red heart on the back of her neck.

Accounts place her last confirmed location in Concord, with unconfirmed reports she was staying at a hotel in nearby Kannapolis. A friend said Jordan left a QT convenience store at Cloverleaf Plaza with a short, heavyset Caucasian male. Her mother, Tracie Barbee, last saw her on Easter 2021 and said Jordan had been struggling with addiction.

Leads have been followed in Concord, Kannapolis, Salisbury and Charlotte without definitive answers. The family has pursued tips, hired a private investigator, held public gatherings and maintained a social media campaign; there have also been attempts by others to impersonate Jordan and extort money from the family. If anyone knew Jordan’s movements in April 2021 or saw her in the Concord–Kannapolis area, can you share what you remember?
