**MISSING: Where is Kierra Coles? | Black Girl Gone Podcast**

In a heartbreaking case that has captivated the nation, Kierra Coles, a vibrant 26-year-old pregnant woman from Chicago, vanished without a trace on October 3, 2018. Despite the passage of three years, her family remains desperate for answers as they seek to uncover the mystery surrounding her disappearance.

Kierra was last seen after calling in sick to work, following a doctor’s appointment to hear her 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦’s heartbeat—a moment she shared excitedly with her mother, Karen. However, as the day wore on without communication, Karen’s instincts told her something was wrong. The alarm bells rang when Karen discovered Kierra had not reported to work and her phone went straight to voicemail. A welfare check at Kierra’s apartment revealed her car parked outside, but the space was empty, her purse and phone later found inside.

A chilling surveillance video emerged, capturing a woman in a postal uniform, similar to Kierra’s, walking past her car on the morning of her disappearance. This footage raised more questions than answers—why was Kierra in uniform when she had called in sick? Speculation intensified, particularly concerning Kierra’s boyfriend, Josh, who has not cooperated with police and left Chicago shortly after her disappearance, moving in with the mother of his other 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren.

As weeks turned into months, Kierra’s family tirelessly spread her story, handing out flyers and holding vigils, yet leads dwindled. The police classified her case as a high-risk missing person, suspecting foul play, but still no suspects have been named.

With Kierra’s due date having come and gone, the painful reminder of her absence weighs heavily on her family. They are pleading for anyone with information to come forward. Kierra’s mother insists, “Until they show me a body, I believe she’s alive.”

The search continues, and Kierra deserves to be found. If you have any information, contact the Chicago PD or the FBI immediately. Time is of the essence in this urgent plea for justice.
