Speaker 1 (00:16):
Today, we're diving into the mysterious disappearance of eighteen year
old Alia Bell, a perplexing case that unfolds just two
days prior to Thanksgiving twenty fourteen. Aliah vanished while walking
down Chestnut Street near her uncle's home in rock Hill,
South Carolina. She has never been seen or heard from since.

(00:42):
The details surrounding her case are quite puzzling, leaving her
family with more questions than answers. Initially, authorities were more
convinced she was a runaway than anything else, but things
just weren't adding up. She had left behind herself cell phone, wallet,
and clothing. What's more bizarre is that, according to her family,

(01:07):
she was very active on social media, but that abruptly
ceased upon her disappearance. Family friend Shandra Cleveland Jennings says
this isn't a normal thing to do, hinting something is
keeping her from coming home. During the investigation, tips started

(01:29):
flowing in suggesting sightings of Aliyah near a motel. Police
have indicated that she could be in Fayetteville, North Carolina,
or Atlanta, Georgia. Aliah was a student at Phoenix Academy,
a non traditional high school that offers a more flexible
schedule with options of online classes and in class instruction

(01:53):
two days a week. On the day she vanished, she
did attend school, and her loved ones insist she wouldn't
have taken a ride from a stranger or someone she
didn't trust. They firmly believe she was taken involuntarily and
is being held against her will. Her case remains unsolved. Now,

(02:18):
let's paint a picture of what Aliah looked like at
the time of her disappearance. She stood five feet six
inches tall and weighed one hundred and forty five pounds.
She has dark brown or black shoulder length hair and
brown eyes. Her lip is pierced, and she has a
tattoo of stars on the left side of her abdomen.

(02:39):
Aliyah was last seen wearing gray leggings or jargon pants
and a black pea coat with neon blue and green shoes.
It's also noted that she may go by the last
names how Belle or Bell Howe. Alia's middle name is Shaday,
and today she would be twenty eight years old. Anyone

(03:02):

the Rock Hill Police Department or their local authorities. Their
details along with the A and C case number can
