UPDATE – October 25

Kyla Barnett, the 22-year-old woman who was reported missing by her family, has been found safe, according to the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation.

The Jackson Police Department is searching for a 22-year-old woman whose family said went missing on Saturday.   

Kyla Barnett was last seen leaving her Clinton, Mississippi, apartment on Oct. 16, her father Billie Barnett said according to WJTV.   

“I know there is somebody out there who knows where she’s at. So I’m just asking anyone who has any knowledge, I don’t care what it is, if they will just step up and share it,” Billie Barnett said.   

Her stepmother, Tracey M. Barnett, took to Facebook on Wednesday, asking people to share her post about her missing “bonus daughter.”   

“We are working with local organizations that have graciously gotten involved. Thank you for sharing and getting the word out and we ask you to continue sharing. Your efforts are making a difference and starting to get things moving,” Tracey Barnett said.

According to the family, Kyla Barnett has brown hair, brown eyes and drives a black 2014 Honda Civic with a Texas license plate (NTP0643).  

Billie Barnett said his daughter moved to Jackson earlier this year after her boyfriend and father of her child was murdered in Dallas, Texas. She was reportedly staying with her late boyfriend’s family in Jackson.
