Barbara Jenkins was last seen in Sumter, South Carolina on August 29, 2013. At 6:00 a.m., she walked with her ten-year-old son from their residence in the 500 block of south Sumter Street, across a vacant lot to the elementary school bus stop. After the bus left, she stayed in the street for a moment, appearing confused, before walking back in the direction of home. She never arrived there and has never been heard from again. According to her family, she appeared withdrawn prior to her disappearance and spent hours walking around the neighborhood alone. The night before she went missing, she came home at 8:30pm and her lip looked swollen, but she wouldn't say what had happened. She told her mother to make sure her son got to school if she wasn't there in the morning. Due to her behavior prior to her disappearance, she is believed to be in danger. Her case remains unsolved.
