WARREN COUNTY, TENNESSEE:
Ramona Mae Priest, 'Mona' to her friends and family, has been missing since February 6, 2001.
On that day, she was released from the city jail on Security Circle in McMinnville. She was just 19- years old.
There were rumors that she was pregnant at the time she vanished, but that has since been proven false.
She left behind all of her personal belongings and an infant daughter. Her family says she would not leave without contacting them or keeping in touch with them. Her disappearance is very much considered out of character for her.
Ramona had told her family that she had been receiving threats from people, but she didn't identify who those individuals might be.
Because of the circumstances of her case, authorities believe she may be the victim of foul play.
Someone out there likely knows where Ramona Priest is.
She is described as a Caucasian female, standing 5'3" and weighing around 125 pounds when she was last seen in February of 2001. She was just 19 years old then, and would today be 43 years old.
Ramona has blonde hair, and blue eyes, but her hair was dyed burgundy and black at the time of her disappearance. She wears eyeglasses with small wire frames. She has scars on her right eyebrow and right knee, a red birthmark on the back of her neck at her hairline, and a tattoo of a "Bad Boy" face in light blue and green ink with the initials "J.G." written in black above it on her right wrist.
Anyone with any information is asked to contact the McMinnville Police Department at 931-473-3386.
