| Adre-Anna Jackson | |
Adre-Anna Anita Jackson, also spelled Adreanna or Adre'Anna was a missing person of Native American descent from Lakewood, Washington. She disappeared at age 10 while walking to school in December 2005 in "a high-crime area with a large number of registered sex offenders".[1] [2] Her mother had sent her out on a three-block walk not knowing school had been canceled because of snow and didn't report her missing until late in the day.[3]
In April 2006, her skeletonized body was found by children in a thicket near 7500 block of 146th Street Southwest in Tillicum in an abandoned lot that was "a popular passageway for school-aged children and a hangout for transients and drug users", identified as Jackson by use of her dental records.[4] [1] The finding followed a highly publicized search by bloodhounds and 120 personnel from the Lakewood police and fire departments, search-and-rescue teams from Pierce County and nearby Joint Base Lewis-McChord,[3] [4] and sonar scans of American Lake off Silcox Island organized by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).[5] Investigators determined the death was suspicious but had not determined the exact cause of death as of 2017.[6]
Child murderer Terapon Adhahn was a person of interest in the case and his former home was searched for evidence in 2007.[7] [8]
Her death appeared on the FBI's most wanted list from 2005 through 2019.[9] As of 2020, there is a $60,000 cash reward – contributed by the FBI, local authorities, and individuals – for information leading to her killer or killers.[3] [10] The case remains unsolved as of 2020.[11] [9] [10]
