Monisha Harrell, 36: Reported Missing From Alabama In July 2021

Although several outlets shared information about this case, details regarding the circumstances related to the disappearance of Monisha Harrell have been scarce. A quick search online turned up several links to news outlets delivering the same information: a 36-year-old woman went missing from Bessemer, Alabama, and police need the public’s help locating her. Not much else can be found other than Monisha was last known to be “in the area of Cloverdale Apartments.”
The National Missing and Unidentified Persons System‘s database shows that Monisha Harrell was reported missing on July 19, 2021. In an article shared by CBS 42 News just days after the missing persons report was filed, Monisha’s family was said to have told authorities that she had “not been seen or heard from in months.”
Police added that relatives claimed Monisha regularly checked in with them but couldn’t make contact. Unfortunately, Monisha’s personal life, professional career, and relationships haven’t been shared. Considering that her family and friends hadn’t heard from her for some time, it is unclear when authorities believe Monisha actually went missing.
