Very few details are available about the case involving Venessa Jones. The last time anyone saw or heard from 45-year-old was on April 5, 2009.

According to reports, Venessa was in Warren, Ohio when she went missing. However, like many of the other cases I’ve written about here, the circumstances surround her disappearance are unknown. Her family life, work-life, personal relationships, and any other details about Venessa haven’t been made public. Additionally, I could only find one small, blurry photo of Venessa Jones and it doesn’t show much of what she looked like in 2009.

At the time of her disappearance, Venessa Jones stood 5 feet 4 inches tall and 165 pounds. She had black/dark brown hair and brown eyes. Her hair was reportedly short and may be styled in braids. Venessa was last seen wearing a du-rag that may be red. Venessa would be 57-years-old at the time of this publication.

Please share this story about Venessa Jones in order to reignite the investigation into her missing person case. She is our sister and her life matters.

In 2008, James Guilford was convicted of the murder of his girlfriend, Sharon Nugent. One year prior, 27-year-old Sharon disappeared, and after police interrogated Guilford, he confessed to killing her. He reportedly told authorities that he’d beaten Sharon to death and tossed her remains in a dumpster—and until this day, she’s never been found. Following his trial, Guilford’s attorneys were awarded a legal victory after his conviction was overturned due to the manner in which his confession was procured. (more…)
