MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. - Police are searching for a Miami Gardens woman who hasn't been seen since Wednesday.

Family members said Kameela Russell, 41, was supposed to pick up her daughter from Russell's aunt's house Wednesday, but she never showed.

Russell works as a test chairperson at Miami Norland Senior High School, but she also did not show up to work Thursday and Friday.

Russell's aunt, Donna Blyden, said she thought she saw Russell's 2014 black Audi outside her home around 6 p.m. Wednesday but when she checked the driveway sometime later the car was not there.

Missing Adults Facebook post has a lot of links and quotes. Glad to see people are getting the word out on social media.

One story says a family member saw her and then looked again and she was gone. Another story says family members saw her drive away. So which is it? There is a canal behind the street where her family lives. But, if she drove away, she could be just about anywhere. I wonder how testing went that day. Perhaps it went badly. It's a really tough job.

Where are her two children?

 

[PayrollNerd]

That’s a very residential area. I wonder if anyone’s house camera picked her up as she drove by. Is there a significant other in her life? Any other family members have any ideas like did she need to run an errand before a store closed?

Radio silence as far as I can tell, difficult to find anyone talking about this case.

Well, this was the usual first weekend after a person goes missing. The family conducted a search with some help from friends. They distributed flyers. I'm interested in knowing about Kameela's relationship history. Obviously, she had a relationship with someone. She has two children! Is that the only someone? Is there another someone?

 

[Knox]

What would have caused Kameela to pull into the driveway and suddenly leave? An emergency call? Surely there must camera's, wonder if LE has asked checked for video?

Kameela Russell, 41, was last seen Wednesday night in the driveway of her aunt’s home in Miami Gardens.

Russell went to the home to pick up her 6-year-old daughter.

Donna Blyden, her aunt, said she saw Russell’s car pull into the driveway before it suddenly disappeared.

“When I look again, I didn’t see the car,” Blyden said, “so I text her and say, ‘Where are you? I know you were in the driveway just now, and now you’re not here. Where are you?’ I didn’t get an answer.”

Miami Gardens Police are seeking the public’s help to find the school employee and mother of two.

This is really odd. So she arrived to pick up her child but then turned around and left? I'd love to know what's on her phone as far as texts or phone calls for that time. Praying for her!

She posted on FB the day before she went missing. https://www.facebook.com/kameela.russell

I wonder if someone on probation was stalking her. They may have been lurking near the aunts house knowing she’d be arriving to pick up her child.

Where’s the child’s Dad? Is he in her life?
