Friday, April 23, 2010

Police are asking for the public's help as they search for a missing Kingsessing woman.

Dupriest, 41, is 5-foot-11, 190 pounds, with blonde hair. Tipsters can call Southwest Detectives at 215-686-3183.

Summer Breeze thank you so much for posting this. Our Daily News had a small article in it the other day about Jeanette and then I tried to find it online and couldn't.

There's a relative asking for help in finding her on the Michael Baisden Live Facebook. When I try to link to it's not coming up. That's a busy Facebook so I'm praying that will help bring Jeanette home to her family safely.

She's the mother of 8 children. Her family needs her.
 
The Charley Project entry says she has been on medication for depression -- doesn't say whether she has her medication with her. Also says she has drug abuse in her past (but was currently clean) and that while LE thought initially she might have had a relapse, they are now concerned about foul play (because of the time elapsed). She's such a tall, striking-looking woman, it's hard to believe she could blend in easily with a crowd. Praying for her children that she's found safe soon.

Details of Disappearance​

DuPriest was last seen in west Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on April 2, 2010. That night she visited Wanda's, a bar in the area of 54th and Springfield where she was a regular patron. She left at closing time with some people she met at the bar, and visited two houses on Belmar Terrace. She has never been heard from again.

DuPriest has eight children; she's described as a devoted parent who wouldn't have abandoned them. She lived on Beaumont Avenue near 56th Street at the time of her disappearance. She hasn't used her bank account since she went missing.

Authorities initially believed she had had a drug abuse relapse, but since so much time has passed without contact from her, they now suspect she may have met with foul play. DuPriest's case remains unsolved.
