Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP37510) and 7 other sources
Keri Cefarelli, a 40-year-old woman from North Fort Myers, Florida, was last seen on January 5, 2017. On the day of her disappearance, Keri left her residence wearing a light blue bathrobe, tank top, long shorts, and flip-flops. She was reportedly under the influence of drugs at the time and ran away from home, leaving behind her personal items such as her dentures, purse, and cell phone charger. Her phone was later found to be dead, which complicated efforts to locate her.

Three days after she was last seen, Keri was spotted at a Taco Bell in Fort Myers, still in the same clothes. She had a conversation with her fiancé’s mother, during which she refused to return home, citing her drug use as the reason. Despite being seen at different locations in Fort Myers in the weeks following her disappearance, she never returned home and has not been heard from since.

Keri's case remains unsolved, and it is considered unusual for her to have lost contact with her family, particularly with her son, who was visiting relatives at the time. The Lee County Sheriff’s Office continues to investigate, but no significant leads have emerged in the years since her disappearance.
